pav- iz ' A' Q I vm ' ' .fp V. Chemistry textbooks and pages of complicated equations welcome early-comers as teachers begin lectures in zero-hour classes. An experiment in education was initiated at Shawnee Mission East this year. The zero- hour program offered three courses for seniors: chemistry, citizenship, and auto mechanics II. The zero-hour courses, beginning at 7:15 each morning, were developed with the working student in mind. Because they came to school early, the 100 students in this program could leave for after-school jobs at 1:00 PM instead of the usual departure time of 3:30 PM. Students who participated in the program could take five hours of courses, but they could not have activity period under the new schedule. The new curriculum brought out one ma- jor complaint from students involved in it. Com- ing to school at 7:15 meant getting up an hour earlier. Although participating in the zero-hour program meant forfeiting after-school activi- ties, students found this new program profit- able both in and out of school. at I Zero Hour Affracfs Sleepy Minds Attempting to generate oxygen, Craig Wolfe struggles to keep his gas jar from slipping and dousing his workbook with water. In the silence and solitude of early morning, tired students mean- der into school to face teachers and tests.
