You have brains in your head.
You have feet in your shoes.
You can steer yourself
any direction you choose.
You're on your own. And you
know what you know.
And you are the one who'll
decide where to go...

Inside the School and Out
by Jake Hauss
Our lives as students at West Orange High
School have been much more interesting than a
page in a book or a formula on a photocopied
worksheet. When we look back at these four years,
our memories will be much more interesting than
black and white letters and numbers. Our
memories have deep roots not only in the
classrooms, hallways, gymnasiums, fields, and
parking lots of this school, but in the minds and
personalities that we interacted with every week
day.
The activities and other endeavors we
participated in made each day— in school and out-
more special than the last. With trips around the
world, volunteer experiences, and even a few jobs,
we created lasting impressions on each other and
ourselves. With great friends at our side, few of us
ever acted alone.
Our Senior year was more exciting and
exhilarating than any in the past. Senior car
decorating, Senior Breakfast, Senior Prom, and
many more exclusive events made us feel like we
were on top of the world. Even though this was our
last year at the High School, for some our last year
in West Orange, or our last year in New Jersey,
these exclusive events helped us end our run in a
great way.
This was indeed our last year to create
memories, but our lives were full of ways to do it.
There was certainly no shortage of memorable
moments. Even though we definitely loved our
lives inside of West Orange High School, we lived
our lives outside of it.
