Shoot And Rewind Time and space can be captur- ed only for a moment as a variety of extracurricular activities and academic possibilites flashed by students. One major change facing War- ren, as well as schools all over the nation, is a declining school enrollment. The 1979 fall enrollment was down 7.4 percent from 1978, and that trend, if continued, could re- sult in a loss of almost 3000 stu- dents in the township by 1983. Such aspects as live births, housing patterns, upward mobil- ity from city to county and the threat of desegregation or white flight are all a part of the problem. Another interesting fact about Warren students is that many pupils move in and out of our sys- tem during a year ' s time. From fall 1978 to fall 1979, more than 5000 students either moved in or out of our school district. What does this mean for War- ren? A committee is studying changes to be made as a result of the trend to smaller enroll- ment. Possible changes may in- volve the closing of several ele- mentaries, a junior high, and possibly regrouping of some age groups. The annual Open House found a record number of parents coming to see displays of student work and participation and eating chili and talking to teachers. Protecting students from cold, rain and snow, the new walkway between the high school and the career center was completed, and a new student center was re- modeled. Some things manage to change creating a re-evaluation of the status quo. But time and space can be stopped only by the camera, and the pace goes on, considering all the angles. Top ten tunes.
