South Side High School - Totem Yearbook (Fort Wayne, IN)

Added New to Make Our Year Uniaue C o, we did it, and here we are. The change was a good one, because we didn't forget what South Side really is, tradition. We remembered all the important things, the Three Rivers Festival Parade, playing the North Side football team for the Totem Pole, and Junior Rotarians. We kept the traditions of Homecoming, Green and White Day, and standing up to the Marion Giants in basketball. We remembered the Senior Play and walking down Calhoun Street on Ivy Day. But, most importantly, we remembered to be the kind of people that South Side has been proud to call its own for the last 62 years.

W Making Changes Also ] [ n order to make all of these 1 changes possible, less appealing changes also had to be made. Respon- sible students were chosen by the ad- ministration to serve as hall monitors during class periods. No more running around the halls, skipping classes, or stepping outside between mods. Any student not following these changes was forced to face a stricter punish- ment than in years before. More rules weren't made, just old ones reinforc- ed. The administration knew what it was doing. Now we can truly say that we are proud of a school that has stood on tradition but is not afraid of change. We all know that rules aren't made as punishment, but rather as a way to see that everyone has a chance at the best education possible, one that he deserves.
