usually just see the serious side of the students here at W.H.S.—whether it is during semester test time or at an intense sports event. Now, how fair is that? To be able to get to know someone, you have to see all of their different moods and personalities. So. in this edition of the Wildcat year- book we will take a look at the wilder side of the stu- dents. You know the part. The part in all of us that craves for excitement and ends up paying for it later. Let's recap some of the wilder moments at W.H.S. many of you remember when a teacher’s hall paddle was stolen and held for ransom by a mischievous student? Or did you hear when a student told an unsuspecting class- mate to do the wrong assign- ment, just for a laugh. This is not even the half of it. The excitement and crazi- ness is not restricted just to school. Students being let out of school are kind of like wild animals breaking out of a zoo! Most kids enjoy hopping in their cars and spinning their tires or seeing how many doughnuts they can pull off in the school parking lot on a weekend night. A good example may also be going home well after a curfew and seeing which one of their wild selection of excuses their parents will buy. Yes, the high school years can very well be called the best years of a person’s life because these years have a feeling of freedom and ad- venture. by Angie Spainhower 2 Opening
