Look Inside I wcnty-one steps reflected sha- dows of students streaming to start another day. Friends smiled and everyone thought what a great day it was. Locks opened on the first try and the history test was surprisingly easy. The day moved quickly and echoed enjoyment. Some days were like that; others were far from it. In any case, school offered the chance to experience new things and to be crea¬ tive. Some students finally learned to rhyme a sonnet, discovered a hidden talent in art, or matured from partici¬ pating in the Student Government or a club like Future Homemakers of America. Although the new term brought many changes, everyone learned to ad¬ just to different methods and ideas. The Assistant Principle of Instruction was Mrs. Lynn Eberwine. who diligent¬ ly worked with much enthusiasm throughout her first year in the admini¬ stration. New teachers added to the change and brought with them many different ideas and teaching methods. Picnic tables beside the school perked up the campus, offering students an al¬ ternative to the cafeteria. A structural change of school regulations was re¬ flected in the initiation of in-school suspension. Complaints and approving remarks came from the students, yet the challenge was met to cope with the changes. On the good days, something per¬ suaded everyone to look on the bright side. And when they did, school didn’t seem so bad. A sunnv day renders a shining Suffolk High School Hooking a rug is a fun art assign¬ ment for Susan Dillard.
