If one were to walk in the small gym on a Tuesday or Thursday- you would find Mrs. Peetz and 62 or so students jumping about everywhere. lt's quite a sight! I-the roaming reporter, asked a number of the future dancers of America a few questions. What is always said in class? I asked. Many replied, 5,6,7,8. A few others were: But, Mrs. Peetz, I don't understand! How's that again? Gosh, I don't know! And my favorite reply, Well, who asked you to talk?! As I watched the late students come in to the small gym, Mrs. Peetz could be heard saying under her breath, Better never than late. The class was rather large this year and one student commented that next year it should number fewer people and have the class go a full year so they could put on two productions. Not everyone knows that dance production meets every Tues- day and Thursday starting at 7:40 and ending at 9:30. I asked one of the gals how she liked having to get up so early and she bluntly re- plied, I hate it. Next year the class will be offered again and I hope that they have an even MORE successful year. -S.B.I. Top Right, Coach Draeger munches on his chips while strolling through the quad.

That means about one fourth of the student body actively studies a wide variety of musical interests at Saratoga. We are fortunate to have course offerings which range from our full Symphony orchestra to four con- cert bands, three choirs, a jazz band, a 200 piece marching band, and two classes for students who just want to learn about musicg music appreciation and guitar. The department continues the high quality of its in- struction that led to the award-winning performances of recent years. -Craig Northrup Opposite Page, Left, Mr. Baroni flashes one for us.

Teachers and MIKE COSTANZO P.E., J.V. Football JOANNE MALONEY KQ' . 5 n ' , ,',sl' I -5 . - . classes go co-ed This year, Saratoga High School has offered an entirely different Physical Education Program. All courses offered, including competi- tive sports, are now co-educational. lf a girl feels she has the ability to compete on a traditionally all-male team, she is welcome to try out-and of course, vice versa. I have participated in both a session of a class which met during regular school hours and also in the all- new Extended Day Program. These classes are held either in the mornings or afternoons, be- fore and after school. The school plans on offering such things as horse-back riding, bicycling, sailing and many others. I was enrolled in a sport which I found thoroughly captivating, the all-time favorite, Bowling, The bowling class starts at 7:00 a.m. on Tuesday and Thursday mornings. On Monday, Wednesday and Friday mornings the student doesn't attend school until 2nd period. Individual transportation is required and attendance is very important. These classes last two hours and much can be accomplished in this time. I find this pro- gram enjoyable and I'm sure those involved agree. -Shawn Owens Bottom Left, Coach Devine is not aware of his onlooker.
