Brankins Present ‘When Spring has Sprung The Grass has Riz Who knows where all the Students is.’ Even though it’s spring, school is still going strong. Most students are working diligently trying to keep their minds off the beautiful weather that prevails, while others have given in to its temptations. These are the ones who are gaining a tan but just as surely losing their grades. Among all this, one teacher found a cure for “spring fever.” Mrs. Gillins decided that instead of losing her students to spring, she would bring spring to them. On February 28, she held sixth period out on the patio amid en grass and warm sunshine. The students agreed it was it will happen again.
