Students advance Over the period of four years spent in high school, we as students unconsciously explore three phases of school life, the academic, the athletic, and the social. Experiencing these different phases builds within the students an indelible affection for our school and develops us into individuals. The research that students put into book reviews, the expression and effort put into writing speeches, the wonder we experience in the chemistry laboratory, and the in¬ genuity and originality put into various projects compose the academic highway over which a high school student passes. Though this highway is not easily traveled, the reward for success is everlasting. Stu¬ dents achieve, not only intellectual advance¬ ment, but also a profound feeling of satis¬ faction and the inspiration to strengthen and further their knowledge through EXPLORA¬ TION of all the aspects of life. Each morning, before classes begin, Ben Bradsher and Tony Bowes have the duty of raising the flag. Before Thursday morning ' s assembly begins, students take advantage of a few spare moments to discuss the day ' s activities. Mr. Brown explains to the bus drivers their routes for the year. 4
