At first, it was little more than a mass of concrete and glass, this school of ours. The electric saws and the bulldozers, the temporary plyboard sidewalks and the muddy campus made it seem more like a construction project than a place of learning. Bells not ringing, in- tercoms not operating, and air conditioners not cooling were all a part of the first months in our new school. Eventually, however, the buildings' were completed and a sense of nor- mality settled on the campus. The long walk from the parking lot to the building and Mr. lVlcGuire,s voice over the intercom became familiar parts of school life. We put ducks in our pond and painted Christ- mas scenes on our glass Walls. We laughed about our grassy amphitheater and grew proud of our modern Little Theater. Slowly and of- ten reluctantly, we transferred our loyalty from the old campus to the new. The strange- ness disappearedg the newness diminished. Now, indeed, this is Texas High. ' 9
