Steps in the Lives of Woonsocket Students The Redmen made steps forward and. yes. a few steps backward in the 1986-87 school year. The students once again appeared on the steps of Woonsocket High in September and returned from summer vacation dressed in the new fashions of cartoon sweatshirts, bleached jeans, 501 jeans, long shirts, and suspenders. The latest in hair accessories were bananas and bows while the latest shoe fash- ions were ciaol boots. The students found themselves taking steps toward a county school. If the school is accepted, it will be a joining of Woonsocket, Artesian, and Letcher and would be built at Forestburg. Students’ reactions varied to the idea of a county school because of the many advantages and disadvantages. Students who favor the school look forward to larger classes and more course offerings while others fear the aspect of competition as a definite disadvantage. WHS students have found themselves going to more weekend movies such as “Crocodile Dundee”, “Golden Child”, and “Top Gun , because of the closing of one of their recent hangouts, the L and G Pub. Others found themselves cruising the streets and listening to their favorite tunes. Some popular rock groups are Bon fovi. The Beastie Boys, and the Bangles, while the favorite vocalists are Madonna, Peter Cetara, and Whitney Houston. But on week nights many of WHS students spend the night at home watching their favorite television shows of ”Alf” and St. Elsewhere , after their homework is done, of course! fust as stepping forward is a big part of every stu- dent’s life during a school year, there were those few times when important lessons are learned while stepping backward. Some of these events included an over active bunch of students during homecom- ing and at a musical trip to Lake Andes. Education truly is not confined to the classroom. The 1986-87 school year is a memorable one as far as the weather is concerned. Having no snow on Christmas and higher-than-normal temperatures all through the winter was really a welcome change. Shawn Peterson. Lincoln Feistner, and lay Larson are dressed for summer on January 13. 1987, as evidence of the unseasonly warm weather. Ciaol boots are the latest craze in shoes. Some fans show their support at an away football game. 4
