What Is THS? The gigantic structure of brick, wood, and con- crete is only a front for the real, hidden symbolism of Tappahannock High School. It is a maize of classrooms, equipment rooms, and corridors. But this represents only a material picture of THS. Actually, behind the daily routine of boring classes, noisy halls, and crowded lunchrooms are the things that make a person glad that he ' s a Warrior. Beyond the daily grind of classwork are the tears, sweat, heartache, joy, victory, defeat, and toil that make our school the best. The real THS is more than it appears to be at first glance. Every particle of building matter, be it a splinter of wood, a worn desk, or a concrete wall, holds vast memories, secrets, and feelings of the students. The rafters in the gym peal out the joys of squad B defeating squad A; the misery of a forward missing a free shot with the score tied; the accomplished feeling of being able to do a back- ward roll on the balance beam. Each pane of glass in the classroom reflects the agonies of proving an impossible theorem; the satisfaction of having suc- cessfully completed an experiment; the sadness of failing a typing test. The slab of tile in the audi- torium will forever hold the feelings of the nervous candidate running for S. C. A. ; the glee of your class being chosen the king class; the solemness of Largo, and when a senior is suddenly gripped by the thought, I am now ending the first chapter of my life. I will never walk these halls again. Each brick in THS might stand for the personality of one student who has, is, and will be spending five or more years in these buildings. These bricks, molded together, become a solid, staunch, and powerful structure, indestructable to all. This Is THS. 2
