W- New student discovers creative classrooms t was my first day at Walnut High. I went to the office and got my schedule for my classes. Before leaving I found where the rooms were located. Walking towards the E build- ing, I found Ms. Crisci's Ger- man I class. I went in and found I was surrounded by Science Fiction movie posters. Ms. Crisci's room does defi- nitely reflect her views. The first time I walked into her room I knew from looking at the walls, she had to be in space, said senior Jon Greenbaurn. On her front wall are many collectables from Sci-Fi pic- tures. There is a pin from Dune, pictures of Kirk, and posters of 2010. Before I knew it the period was over. Next listed on my schedule was E-21. I was shocked at what I saw. On the first wall were hundreds of pic- tures of old students. Following K' , that reflects teach the pictures were pins from ev- erywhere imaginable. Then there were tickets from all events and Sports Illustrat- ed covers bordered the walls. I think it's very important for the students to come into a pleasing atmosphere, said Mr. Reda. On my way to 4th period I wondered what to expect next. Mrs. Henry's room was darling! There were different teddy bear collectables all over. There were posters and a calender, all with warm and cuddily bears. It's nice when you look across a room and see some- thing other than having to do with school, said junior Lani Wright. Decoration of a classroom seemed to have effects on teachers as well as students. I spend five hours a day in here and it helps, said Mr. Jack Isett. .Q- pmns'r.iunx .4 000 QREDHS 35' ., ---an 'W' 2 Vi 8,429,539-.K .L I , , Q er personalities The decor of the room sets the mood of the class. If a class isnit decorated it's plain and boring, and you feel like falling asleep, said junior Darrin Shisler. Now that my school day is over and Iim walking home, I wonder: now that I've seen all these well-decorated, lavishly decorated rooms, will they change them again tomorrow or will I have to live with these rooms for the rest of the school year? I hope notg they'd lose their excitement. I ON THE WALL of Ms. Janet Ben- edals room is a mural of a Spanish gal- leon. The mural was painted in 1980 by Bob Fiacco. VSHOWING MULTITUDES OF INTERESTS,pins,pictures,andpost- ers are hung on Ms. Donna Crisci's walls. James T. Kirk is a favorite of hers. ,sg ag EH MSN tzigl., lv . , rw' p'?,1 ... me Xl ,, ' V 4, F F' f f - uf' y Aa v, , 2 Q ,. A.

? l-1-DT' 6- - 1 I .Q I The WHS attendance office t was widely reported that WHS had an attendance policy in 1983 and 1984. But the WHS administration proved that these reports were false when it instituted an atten- dance policy with some teeth in the '84-'85 school year. Besides ending all the false reports, the new attendance policy actually forced people to go to class, which was becoming a dying art at WHS. The gist of the atten- dance policy was this: if a stu- dent had five unexcused ab- sences or seven tardies in any class, he is eligible to be failed from that class, on the spot. The attendance policy, if nothing else, created lots of controversy. Most students ac- tually disliked it, which was probably no great surprise. HI definitely dislike the atten- dance policy. Itls far too strict. I liked the 5-10-15 better, said senior Jorge Garcia, refering to one of Walnut's older atten- dance policies. Fellow senior Linda Karnes didn't agree. lt fthe attendance policyl seems fair to me. There's no reason why you should miss class at all unless you're absentf' The faculty seemed to think like Linda. The new policy is definitely a step in the right di- rection, but we need to go a lit- tle further, said English teach- er Larry Holmes. Fellow Eng- lish teacher Dan Priest was even more adamant. I love it. I toughens things up feel very in control with this policy. I don't have to worry about a lot of silly make-up work since students come to class. Whether the attendance policy was a huge success or not, one thing was for sure: the younger the student, the less it mattered. I think the atten- dance policy is fine,', said fresh- man Raissa Reed, but I don't know any other one, either. Q . V ONE SWIPE OF THE HAND, and attendance worker Donna Ekblad clears a student from an absence. At- tendance workers like Mrs. Ekblad had a much bigger job to do after the new attendance policy was instituted. Photos by Paul Maldonado.
