ttmi 873 confused sophs invade school halls September 2nd was an important day for the new sophomore students because it was their first full day of senior high school life. Bewildered and confused, they struggled to find the South Wing, the lunchroom, and the lockers they had found only once before. Although they did not represent the largest sophomore class to enter Richfield High, they did make their presence known by enthusiasm and scared looks. For juniors and seniors the first day of school meant catching an early bus and finding their classes after a relaxing three month vacation. Perhaps the most enjoyable thing about the opening day of school for the juniors and seniors was renewing old friendships with other students. They also found that a few changes were imminent for the coming year. A new constitution was being written, which provided for more student involvement in school policy. They also discovered that there was a chance the school lunch program might be changed. This change especially generated a great deal of hope for the future quality of RHS lunches. The 1971-72 school year began with anticipation of memorable things to come. Senior Vicki Boisjolie helps direct Sophomores to their classes on Orientation Day. 18 Fir»t Day of School
