Skyline High School - Origin Yearbook (Dallas, TX)

IN FUN Bussed around Hitting the books after a warm, relax- ing summer would be a shock to anyone’s system, but it was the typical September routine for students. Skyline opened its doors to tougher graduation requirements and higher expectations that made academic life more stressful. But students still found ways to have fun in the midst of tests, homework and rules. Dress-up days during the fall had stu- dents searching their wardrobes to create outfits for Trash-out Day, Mafia Day, Little Rascal Day and ’50s Day. In school, strictly enforced rules made life more regulated. Students waited until the 8:15 bell to go upstairs in the morning. Pep assemblies were more orderly than the previous year’s, but class calls were again eliminated for causing too much rowdiness. A new busing rule allowed buses only one stop besides at home schools. Many students drove to school, and parking lots were full to overflowing. While school life put pressure on stu- dents to do well academically, it also al- lowed them the chance to make new friends and enjoy social activities. And at Skyline, a school which draws students from all over the city, friendships and fun were special for all of its people. STUDENT LIFE Student life»DIVISION 7

This summer I went to Phoenix, Arizona for the 43rd Annual International Key Club convention. It was very hot in the desert sun and Isaw an abundance of Arizona cacti. I brought some of it back for my friend Leigh Anne Fcagin. I also went to Padre Island with inv church. •Jeff Donnell I went to New Braunfels near San Marais with a bunch of friends. We went one weekend during the summer to break the routine of boring summer life. We spent five hours floating down the Cuadalupe River on inner tubes. One of my friends fell asleep and was separated from the rest of the group. We had to drive back up the river to find him. -Leigh Anne Feagin Splash with me Standing In Iron! ol tbc Dunn River lilli in lamaka. senior La Irani Christian iharn fun with friend .
