Freshmen study in various ways, diligently, wearily, frantically, constantly. In the hustle and bustle of freshman life, novice Irish found it necessary to keep up with their various classes and courses of study. The library was the common place for those students whose last night's homework had not been done Groups of frantic freshmen filled the tables and chairs. Each hurried to complete assignments. (There's always TV watching and the ever enticing telephone). The home front was another location where worried and tired freshmen could retreat to their schoolwork. Some studied to the music of their favorite radio station. Others studied with television viewing vying for their attentions. Still others concentrated to total silence, in the seclusion of their room. Most felt a responsibility to complete their night's assignments. Starting upper left: What's new at school?

Learning can be a tremendous challenge or a humilitating debacle depending on how well a young person handles his new independence. Young people in high school learn very soon that their school team needs their loyalty to help them win. Their friends need loyalty, too. So do the teachers and so do the young people to themselves. Self-respect and loyalty go hand in hand with each other. Starting high school is a big step towards tomorrow and the future. It can be one of the greatest times in a person s life, if he can shape its potent power to suit his destiny. Challenges faced in a teen's years are always important, whether they are of major consequence or not. The actions that are taken reflect the future type of person that teenager will be.
