Many changes alter Rogers' routine The 1977-78 school year brought many evident changes. Homerooms, once infrequent meetings to pick up report cards, became daily 9:15 occurences. Principal Doug Adams replaced the senior class president in reading the announcements. Remaining time was utilized for business - filling out questionnaires, ticket sales and voting. Through an admitted error, the homerooms were segregated. If I had it to do over again, I wouldn't separate the boys from the girls, but it's too late to do anything about it now, commented Mr. Adams. A most obvious addition to homerooms was reciting the Pledge of Allegiance. Students were not forced to participate, but most did. Do ya' wanna' git funky with me? Do ya' wanna'? and other jams sounded through the halls during passing periods. Radio music broadcast over the public address system signified the end of classes, along with an electronic buzz. Despite increased enrollment, passing periods remained five minutes long, causing traffic jams, with students rushing to stairways simultaneously. Hallways remained relatively empty during class time, the direct result of new discipline rules concerning hall passes. Teachers were issued a limited number of blue and gold wooden passes with instructions to give them to students only when necessary. The new policy has cut down on all traffic considerably, stated Assistant Principal Gene Alber. Students express many moods while descend- ing the crowded stairway. Jeff Kulch and Tom David show the safe way to walk the halls- with wooden passest Mr. Adams starts the day with 9:15 announce- ments. Susie Lilovich holds the flag while homeroom members Julie Kalvaitis, Christine Jones, Kathy Linsenmeyer and Tracy Lyons say the Pledge of Allegiance? Students socialize during passing periodr 4-.- m. 1.33!

Viewpoints differ from class to class Gee whiz. Today will be my first day at a real high school. I can't wait to get there. Let's see, do I have all my folders? Here's English, Spanish, algebra, geography, biology and health and safety. All six are there. Where is my Raider button? I can't leave without my Raider button. Everyone will have a Raider button. Oh yeah, it's pinned on my shirt. It's already 8:00. I better get out to the bus stop. Gosh. Nobody's out there. What if I missed the bus? Iim not even at school yet, and I'm already lost. What should I do? I can't find my homeroom, A120. Should I ask someone where to go? No, I don't want anyone to think I'm a stupid freshman. Maybe I am only a sophomore, but that's better than being a stupid freshman. Now where's that homeroom? Maybe I should go downstairs and look. The bell's going to ring pretty soon, and I want to be on time. I better ask. That man with glasses near the office looks friendly. I'll bet he's a teacher. His face looks familiar. I'll ask him where to go. Sir, excuse me please. Do you know where room A120 is? I'm almost positive I know, but I just want to make sure. Oh, you must be one of the new freshmen or . . . Did I say something wrong? . . . Mom, can I drive to school today? Come on, it's the first day. What do you mean, IIm taking the bus? Let me use the car. Why not? You let Sue drive when she was a junior. And you let Jane drive when she was a junior, too. Why cant I drive? Guess what, mom, the bus just went by. Now I have to drive to school. What do you mean you'll take me? If anyone finds out about this, I'll be a laughingstock. Everybody drives to school, and my mom is taking me. Hey, there's Tom and Joe. They're on the bus. Joe's talking to Tom and pointing at me. Now he's pointing at my mom. They're laughing. Why didnlt I take the bus? What do you mean get out from under the seat? Please mom, just take me home. . . . Look at all the freshmen and sophomores running around. It looks like the Home EC. Department is sponsoring a babysitting service. None of them know where they're going. It's Where's the cafeteria? and Where's Mrs. Wrasse's room? and How do I get to my homeroom? I'm tired of silly questions. Here comes another freshman. Excuse me. Could you please tell me how to get to Miss Joy's room? Miss Joy? I never even heard of Miss Joy. She must be new. What should I say? I can't ruin my image. How can you bother me with such trivial questions? Go ask a junior to direct you through the halls. Sophomore Sue Rowley boogies down at a Fri- day night dance. Senior John Morse puffs on a cancer stick. Students splash to their buses. Senior Gordon Hoffmaster and Freshman Scott Thode talk it over.
