Just A Pulaski County High School student went through a certain continuous series of events every day. Eventually one tended to recognize that school was the same day after day. From the rising of the sun (or the ringing of the alarm), the students would drag themselves out of bed all sleepy and sandy-eyed into the bathroom for a morning regimen. Wash that hair! Brush those teeth! Now one is ready to face the day, right? Wait a minute, let’s not forget the make-up and clothes. Now, off to school! On the way, students quiet¬ ly thought of all those notes and tests and quizzes to be taken. App roaching the school, one could see the long line of cars going towards honors or students parking Another lot. At the bottom of the hill there was almost always a po¬ liceman directing the traffic, saying who could and could not go. Through rain, hail, sleet, and snow — he was there every morning making sure everyone had a fair chance at getting a parking space. After parking, students from all over the parking lot rushed inside to beat the 8:40 a.m. bell. Once inside the school, stu¬ dents were faced with all the millions of people in the lock- erbanks. People were taking their morning walks around the IMC, just to see who they could see. Then the tardy bell rang and all of PCHS headed toward their lockerbanks, and classes. It seemed as if every¬ one wanted to go in a different direction! It looked as if it were impossible to get to class Day in just five minutes. The roll was taken, the morning announcements were made and classes began. Notes, notes and more notes. It was the teachers’ way of communicating with the stu¬ dents. Then the other millions of people always gathered in the hall for socializing. Espe¬ cially during the lunches, the students either worked on homework, or ran into the commons to grab something to munch on or just sat around and talked. After lunch, the students seemed to be a little more up¬ lifted, knowing that there were only three more classes to go. Three? Yes, three. With that extra class period, it seemed as if the day lasted an eternity! Everyone longed for that 3:18 bell.
