An occasional detailed explanation helps Stan Ricker pass Mrs. Hurst's tests. Going over some tough math problems before a test are Rusty Wilson and Mrs. Freeman. Patience is required by both Mr. Hollyfield and Kevin Scott when such intricate wiring is to be dealt with. Combined effort between students John Cousins, Shawn Samier, and Tammy Cerar with Mr. Edens makes Spanish projects enjoyable. Barriers Break Down The special relationships between students and faculty will probably be among our fondest memories in years to come. Newcomers to the school are often surprised by the openess and warm friendships that form between faculty and students here on the Hill. Up until high school, the relationships between students and teachers are usually limited. But there comes a time when old barriers are broken down by just reaching out, and friendships are formed by common interests. 27

Concern Grows Students at Science Hill, especially Seniors, are be- coming more and more concerned about the prob- lems facing them today. These problems may be on a personal basis or even on a national basisl The escalating price of gasoline has hit most every- one where it really hurts, reaching the dollar mark at the turn of the decade. This added expense has forced students to either work more hours at their job or to drive less. The soaring price of gold has also alarmed many students by rising over five hundred percent in one year alone. Some problems may be closer to home, such as— who to take out Saturday night or where to eat lunch. Adding to the normal problems of growing up , the problems of facing an uncertain future cause mo- ments of concern for all. 28
