■.K-y»-iu. wfim A oil A of constructio: From the first day of school, students have been serenaded by the strange whining and moanirig of the road machinery. Driv- ing beside and around the machines can be quite in- timidating to some drivers while others are leary of the sharp dropoff on Ben Wilson Street. Sometimes it feels as though I ' m going to drive off the side, said Shannon Horton, senior. The narrow torn up roads are hazardous, espe- cially when it rains. My truck slid off the road into the mud . . . luck- ily it didn ' t get stuck, said Chris Saenz, junior. The roads also became an excuse for tardiness for students such as Nicole Minatre. I ' m sorry I was late but I had to go all the way around the school be- cause the roads were blocked, she said. Due to the work disrupt- ing Stroman ' s atmosphere, the school received a favor for the patience, a new widened drive and parking lot. The spaces in front of the school are alotted for certain teachers, office workers and visitors. The work on North Street is completed, however the work on Ben Wilson will not be completed until Oc- tober, 1988. ENDLESS: Students stop the traffic as they return from the Con- stitution Day assembly at the Com- munity Center. SHS presented the assembly in celebration of the 200th anniversaary of the U.S. Constitution in September. ROLLIN ' : A familiar mom- ing sight to many students were the workmen widening Ben Wilson Street. The tena- tive date for completion of the road is Oct. 31, 1988. PASSING: Students found driving to and from school a tight squeeze during con- struction on Ben Wilson Street. tt A SEA OF CONSTRUCTION
