VALPARAISO HI(| WW0L VIKINGS Exterior face sees little modification Programs reflect funding cutbacks, after inward views Johnson. Students attended this heavily restricted class, su- pervised by administrators, from 8-11 a m. either reading or studying during that time. Until the second week in February, when a group of non-VHS educators observed classes, few students realized that VHS was undergoing evaluation for accreditation, which occurs every seven years. However, the North Central Accreditation evalua- tion was frequently in the minds of teachers as they com- pleted detailed department self-evaluations. Due to decreased federal funding and cutbacks in the amount of food given to the school by the government, school lunches increased 20$ to 95$ per lunch. Food por- tions were not decreased. With modifications here and cutbacks there, the $20 bill, like VHS, outwardly remained the same, but the value was constantly fluctuating. — Laura Meyer Look closely at the face val- je of a $20 bill. What does that green-flecked material with Jackson ' s picture represent to you? Perhaps the six hours at minimum wage that you worked to earn it?

Our opinions of people are influenced by mon- ey and reputations. Daily we make judgements based solely on a person ' s out- er image. We greet faces in the hallway every day, often learning more about the indi- vidual behind the smile as the year unfolds. During our three years at VHS, the faces we show change as we grow and re-evaluate long held beliefs. Little changed the reserved facade of VHS, masking the al- terations within. Twenty Apple computers were purchased and used by the Math and Business Departments. By September 30, most stu- dents who drove to school reg- ularly had registered their car and affixed the green and white parking sticker to the rear wi ndow. Cars were checked daily, and those with- out stickers were fined $3. The idea of the Saturday class as a replacement for sus- pension also grew out of the Drug Study Program. The DSP felt that going to school on Saturday is more of a deter- rent than being suspended, explained Principal Garth authorized parkin •i FtKWll BIRTHDAYS AND BIG GAMES wer occasions lor the traditional decorated locker — complete with plenty of candy and good wishes.
