This fall, however, consisted of warm days filled with sunshine and students dressed in shorts un- til the end of October As students basked in the warm fall days, SAT's, compe- tency tests, club inductions and Halloween activities filled their schedules. During the fall, seniors were concerned with selecting col- leges. Before this could be done, however, they had to take the SAT. In the fall, the SAT was administered twice, once in October and once in November. Senior Melvin Young said, I think that the test was a challenge, but I hope I did well. While juniors and seniors rushed to meet the registra- tion deadline, juniors also pre- pared to take the North Caro- lina Competency Test. This test, a requirement for gradu- ation from senior high school, is a test of a student's basic knowledge in reading and math. Junior Keia Albright said, I feel that the compe- tency test was very simple, and most juniors should have passed it. Another part of fall was the club inductions. Clubs such as Ambassadors, Civitans and Keyettes sent out applications to interested juniors and se- 77 As students basked in the warm fall days, SAT's com- petency tests, and club inductions filled their sche- dules. niors during the first week in October. After all applications were in, each club interviewed their prospective members, and then made their decisions. Fall was also highlighted by special celebrations. During the week of October 15-19, the school participated in Liber- ty Week to help raise money to restore the Statue of Liber- ty. Sponsoring a disco and a Ms. Liberty Contest, students raised close to 28400. During the week of October 29-November 2, students cele- brated Homecoming and Fall week. During this week, stu- dents participated in days such as Halloween Dress-up Day and Maroon and Gold Day. The week came to an end with the football team's victo- ry against North Mecklenburg and the crowning of Home- coming Queen, senior Regina Hairston. The fall season came to a close with a new Carrousel princess, Thanksgiving, and the state football playoffs. These activities brought, as junior Tommy Asbury said, A very busy and exciting fall.
