When the School Day’s Over Many students found themselves dreading the 3:10 bell for school to be dismissed. Why? They had after-school jobs to rush to. At 3:15 one could find several students waiting impatiently at McDonald's or Sonic, hoping to grab a bite to eat before heading off to work. Students who weren't on co-op found it difficult to work late hours and still find time to study, but the money made the challenge worthwhile. Places and hours of employment were varied. Trevia Watlington and Pam Hess worked at Priscilla's Christian Bookstore, and Ronnie Winfrey and David Toliver worked at Handy Dollar Store. They ar- rived at work j. on after their school day ended and worked until closing time sometime around 5:30. Others such as Sheila Armstrong and Bryan Ishmael, who worked at IGA, had to work many late hours on shifts that did not end until midnight. Working during the high school years gave many students a great learning ex- perience. They not only learned respon- sibility, but also the value of the American dollar. SMILE.

VACATICNS ACKCSS AMERICA As the school year closed and the summer began, most WHS students packed their bags and left home usually for a week or longer. Whether they went to visit relatives, to have fun in the sun, or just to get away from it all, their destination most often provided something different and enjoyable. There was not one place in particular that everybody flocked to, but there were several locations throughout Arkansas and other parts of America that were appealing. Heber Springs and Hot Springs were two of the most favorite in-state vacation spots. However, there were many WHS students who didn't mind logging hundreds of miles to get to Branson, Missouri, Chicago, Illinois, Disneyworld in Florida, the white sandy beaches of the Gulf Coast, or the Statue of Liberty celebration in New York City. Surprisingly, almost all those long distance trips were made by car instead of by plane. To some students, a vacation might have been a week of camping out or at- tending a church camp. But no matter where they went, when they got back home, there was much to tell of the fun they had had. Vacations 17
