if 'r II' Dashing up the stairs from WOAK broadcasts to classes on the third floor. nervously awaiting a turn to speak in front of a strange audience in the debate or BCL speech league. working like mad to prepare a meat loaf for a club potluck, these are the exasperating moments that influence the growth of students. These extra activities, so willingly volunteered for. result in some of the hardest and most time-consuming work. They are evidence that students in Dondero learn to assume responsibility and to carry out leadership tasks. A sophomore learns the importance of making a compromise between his ideas and those of a fellow Senator as a new bill is discussed in the Senate. The boy on the losing track team suddenly knows the meaning of good sports- manship as he shakes the hand of his victorious competitor. Whether outlining a proposal or playing in a sport. students learn the value of co-operation and teamwork. The pep assemblies. when enthusiastic spectators cheer the teams on and discover it's morale as well as muscle that wins the game, the events when athletes enjoy physical exercise and find the competition challenging. these are times when maturity grows in the student. Maturity consists of many things. among them' the learning of persistence and the development of new interests. Band and choir members, faced with daily 7:30 a.m. rehearsals. learn the former. while Acorn and Oak staffers. with long writing assignments. cu'tivate the latter, both training skills in the process. The growth of character through the influence of clubs, sports and all-school activities is an important function of high school life. The wide variety and number of such activities at Dondero enables students to meet new people, make new friends. and gain rich experiences. Meeting rigid schedules and deadlines encourages responsibility: suffering long and pride-dissolving initiations promotes a good sense of humor, and exchanging student representatives with foreign countries helps develop a curiosity about the modern world and creates a link in peaceful international relations.
