- RHS U N I TES Students share national award Students and faculty shared the excitement when the Award of Ex- cellence was presented to RHS. Principal Tom Kelly and Spanish teacher Carla Brice accepted the award from President Reagan and Terrance E. Bell, the director of the U.S. Department of Educa- tion, Aug. 28 in Washington, D.C. To complete the award presen- tation Hunter Harrison from the Secretary of Education's office presented a plaque to Dr. Kelly at a morning assembly Oct. 9 as the student body applauded. Although most of the year the student body is fragmented into small groups, when Homecoming, a football game against J.J. Pearce, or a wrestling match with Turner takes place, RHS unites. It's awesome! Everybody comes to the games and is enthusiastic, said sophomore Carolyn Owens. Everyone wants our team to win. With a student body of over 1,800, itls difficult for all of RHS to meet unless it's at a pep rally in the gym or an assembly but most students have their own group of friends. I enjoy just being with my friends, said sophomore Holly Glomb. - Philip Needles Students attended the assembly for the Award of Excellence Oct. 9. fWilmarthj Young Lifers enjoy the costumes and entertainment at the Halloween party. fGekierej 14 fStudent Life E r Nu BMJ

LUNCH Students eat at school, leave campus for lunch When lunchtime finally rolls around, students can choose to eat at several places. About 70'Zp, ac- cording to manager Lois McCord, pick the cafeteria, while others choose the Eagles' Nest and a growing number decide, although it is not officially permitted, to got out for lunch. Many students find cafeteria food convenient, economical and even good, despite all the jokes. I eat cafeteria food because I'm too lazy to fix my own lunch, said junior Doug Brickley. Others choose it simply because the majority of the students eat there. I eat there because that's where my friends eat, explains junior Students during B lunch get food from the snack bar in the Eagles'Nest. IMulueyj David Fizell. Some students eat in the Eagles' Nest where they may get chips and cokes or fix their own salad or sandwich from the food bar. I prefer the food in the Eagles' Nest to the food in the cafeteria, said sophomore Neesha Kalaidas, It tastes better. A large number of students opt to bring their lunch. They find it better tasting and more nutritious than what they could buy at school. I bring my lunch because it's better than stale cafeteria food, said junior David Clubb. A growing number of brave students are deciding to leave campus for lunch.

Uurlinaj against the rules and demerits may be awarded, some students head for such places as Burger King or Taco Bueno for lunch. I don't go to the cafeteria because it's too crowded, said junior Stacy Finch. I go out because there's a better variety. To others, going out to lunch means a needed break in the school day. I go out to get away from the school environment, explained junior Peter Shaddock. Wherever they choose to go, students have several ways to fill up so they can make it until school is finally over for the day. - Steve Gaut QLQNOM A C 5 oe' ,-.
