Where the Values Are Bairiton FE Madill High School News Gr inns tell what they thi k Grade nine is one of the most exciting yet scariest years of high school. To find out what this year's grade nines think they were asked. What was, your first impression of the school? What was the biggest let down about the school? Sherry Richmond 9H My first impression of the school was that it was so big and not knowing many people I thought Pd get lost. The biggest letdown was that it really wasn't that much different except for the subjects, rotation and new friends, it was pretty much the same. Karen Whitby 9W All the homework. Sherry Brommer 9A It seemed really big at first. I thought that it would be more fun, than it really is. Noon hours were shorter than at public school. John Passchier 9H My first impression was that everything was going to be hgrd. I think rmade it harder thin what it was like hutting lost and other things. One of the greatest letdowns was. I could hardly make out what the teacher wrote on the board (but I managed) Getting home after school was later than public school (sometimes). Ralph Lubber 9 It was too big. Our shops were too short. Trudy Taylor 9M I thought it was awful big and sure was a big change from public school. My greatest' let down was when all the older kids call "The dumb grade niners" I can hardly wait 'til next year so I can do that. Debbie MacConnell 9R My first impression of F.E.M.S.S. was very scary. Since I am` new, not only to the school, but to :thewhole area, I did not know' anyody and I felt that everybody was staring at me therefore making me feel very uncomfortable. As for the school I thought it was very nice but as I said before , since I have just recently moved here I didn't expect what I saw. For example, I could have liked an instrumental music course and I was disappointed to hear that there was no such thing. Now I have met many friends and I am used to the surroundings, The greatest letdown about the school was, as I said before, the fact that there isn't any music course or a band. Another thing is that I love sports, especially basketball and volleyball and since I have to take the bus home I can't join either of the teams, because there is no way of getting home. (Judy Nicholson) Both football teams travelled to Parkhill in exhibition play on September 19. The juniors tied an even 8-8 score. Paul Dickson scored the touchdown for Wing- ham and Jerry Alechowski ran it in for a two point conversion.
