f ou can’t change time and you certainly couldn't change the existancc of a diverse South High student life. We didn't confine our smiles to those playful hours after the bell rang at 2:05. Our need to laugh, giggle, and gossip could not be restricted to specific hours. During classes and between classes, students discussed weekend plans, exchanged notes, and whispered softly to their friends about their newest romantic intrests. Special school events helped to kindle the fire on student life. Homecoming, Sadie Hawkins, and Snow Daze all acted as sponges, pulling the energy out of all of the students and slapping it against the walls of the school. During Homecoming week the walls were literally dripping with school spirit. Out of school, student life was more mysterious and widespread. Some students went Uptown and others went Downtown, in search of some action. Private parties and all too public parties were held. All of this activity was a welcome release from the pressures of school and home. There is no question that as we fought to grow older the things we did in our spare time changed us ... but you can’t change time.

(continued from page 2) Initiations were also a part of the change that time brought to South High this year. The whole school was introduced to a new and stricter attendance and tardy policy as well as a new assistant principal, two counselors, and several new teachers. We even had the opportunity to begin the year with new carpeting, but time took its toll. By the end of the year that once bouncy new carpet had become a dull and matted down floor covering. These were times that we will not forget. They were also times that we cannot change. This '86 • '87 yearbook is a record of one year in our lives. Perhaps it will help us to remember this year not as a blur but as if it were happening all over again. This year changed you so much ... Above: The clock at Riverplacc.
