Time was a precious commodity for the 1,942 students who spent half of the year, ap- proximately 1,267 waking hours, within the walls of Tolleston High School. In addition to this, countless hours were spent in preporo- tion for classes or in participation in school- related activities, either acodemic or social. The school day began at 8:20 with the ring of the first bell foMowed by morning an- nouncements, which hove become an estab- lished custom at Tolleston. Led by a selected member of the Student Body, morning ses- sions began appropriately with pledging al- legiance to the flag, then a few quiet moments spent in meditation while The Lord's Proyer resounded over the public address system. The day progressed, as students went from one class to onother, and ended with dis- missal at 3:20. The three-minute rush be- tween classes, the crowded corridors, the fa- miliar crash of slamming locker doors, and the hum of voices broke the monotony of the studious atmosphere thot filled the seven-hour day The knowledge and experience gained at Tolleston mode the four high school years among the most important in each student's life.
