R HS After school special Relax! Despite the homework, chores, team prac- tices and jobs, most Sea Hawks found time to get away from it all and just relax. Many students rushed home to watch their favor- ite soaps like One Life to Live or General Hospi- ta Music also provided entertainment and relaxation for a lot of students. The Stray Cats and The Clash were two of the most-listened-to roups. Students couldn't always relax though, many held part time or full time jobs to earn money for all the clothes, records and weekend outings. They served food at Taco Bell, sold clothes at Miller's Outpost and gafigyht aerobics classes at Del Amo All-Pro Athletic u . Some students didn't have to leave the house to find work. The trash was waiting to be taken out and dishes to be done. And, if nothin else, the words, Clean your room could usually ie heard. An all too familiar after-school time consumer was homework. Students studied for McIntosh's and Wayne Roy's tests, Jane Carricart and Sue Crane's essays, and, in the case of advanced French students, spoke French at Kay Tanny's house one night a week. Some of the grueling assignments were building and planning, your own school for Ken Wilson's govern- ment class. Mrs. Tanny's French final consisted of a weekend in the mountains where students could ski, eat, or just relax as long as they s oke only French. Times like this became few and fjar between, however, as the year progressed and students became more involved in sc oo and work. Once in a while, students could find time to just go out and have fun. Movies were a common outing while some students ventured into more unusual out- ings such as bowling. No matter how students spent their time, RUH5 seemed to play a major role in how they spent their time after school. Support of families, faculty and friends seemed to keep the Sea Hawks going. Even when the many after school activities may have seemed overwhelming, students knew it was worth ll. ,.,. W RUHS after school special 3
