Studying is becoming a daily routine for most students and finding a nice , quiet area is difficult. The Media Center is the most quiet place to study but even that can be a noisy place at times.

Some students do not like to do labs due to the fact that they have to take the time to perform the lab properly. They have to sit down and balance out the amount of ingredients that are needed for that lab. According The students in Mrs. Leggetts class are conducting light through several liquid conductors to those surveyed, most boys enjoy labs while many girls are less enthused. The purpose of a lab, from a teachers point of view, is to let the students have a chance to actually see how what they read in class applies to life. It helps students get a hands-on view of science. Labs can be fun and entertaining, Gray McDonald and Angie Stevens are in shock over the temperature re- sults in Chemistry class Ryan Crocker and Nishal Patel configure the weight of the cups in Mrs. Carol Millers class Gary Redding watches with interest as the water is heated in Honors Chemistry class BALANCING IT OUT while at the same time teaching the students an important lesson.

The time has come and it finally opened. The building on open land in the newly developed section on Heath Road. Students came from all over the Macon area to attend this school. The school is a mixture of two rival high schools Central and Southwest. The Chargers and the Patriots became united under one building as the Seminoles. Westside features two courtyards one for all students to use and one dedicated for the juniors. The school sold bricks with inscriptions for fifty dollars, which are very similar to the bricks in Atlantas Centennial Park. The courtyard also has park benches for the students to sit and relax during the day. Both faculty and students agree Westside High School has better accommodations than the previously attended schools. The classes are cleaner, the hallways are wider, and the lunchroom has better food. The school has new heating and air systems, which is a blessing, and has big picture windows for students to enjoy the beautiful campus.

The students at Westside High are being introduced to different theories of science. They learned about different phases of matter of states; they are solid, liquid, gas, and plasma. The students also learned about the electron cloud. The exact location of the electrons is never known. Scientist say that electrons move too quickly and are too tiny to ever be pinpointed. Their instructor taught them the difference in chemical and physical changes. Physical change is when the entire substance have different properties. Chemical change is when it changes in size, state, color, and shape. The science classes at Westside High have done several labs. One particular lab is Date and Observations. During this lab, the students learned that mossy zinc fogged and fizzed when it reacted with Hydrochloric Acid.

It has gained several new supporting fans. This is the first swim team for Bibb County, as well as Westsides first swim team. It has been a new challenge as well as anew goal. Swimmers have lobbied for nine years to have this addition to the Bibb County Athletic Program. The hardest thing the swim- mers have had to deal with is the fact that they are all friends, and practice together. Spring Start - John Aycock gets off to a good start. Anyone can wear cool clothes, Some can look good in a swimsuit, But it takes a REAL man to look good in a Speedo. -Gary Wood However, when they compete, they must compete against each other! The Swim Team looks forward to many new goals achieved and records made by swimmers in the years to come. This year, the Swim Team competed in meets at the Uni- versity of Georgia, Georgia Southern University, and Au- gusta. Coaching on the Sidelines - Coach Anne Simmons gives inspira- tion to Holley Carswell and Kristin Hartness before their event. I know a lot of people dont understand and think its monotonous, down the black lines over and over, but its not if youre enjoying what you are doing. I love to swim, and I love to train. The most prepared are the most dedicated. -Melissa Benson Melissa Benson rips through the water with her butterfly stroke. She leaves het competitor in her wake! Front - Michael Sheehan, Terri Marion, Holley Carswell, Kristin Hartness. Back - Melissa Benson, Alex Meriweather, Gary Wood, John Aycock, Phil Jones, Laura Akin, Matthew Chauncey. Swimming is like life because you expect the unex- pected, but it doesnt matter if you win or lose, you always are successful in having fun in the process. -Holley Carswell Reaching High Laura Akin swims the 50 yd. freestyle at the University of Georgia swim meet Its About Time Gary Wood captured State qualifying time in his 50 yd. freestyle Out of Breath! Terri Marion completes the 100 yd. freestyle. Anyone can learn to throw a baseball, Most can tackle someone in football, But it takes a true athlete to be the fastest in the pool. Jj -Gary Wood We've Got Spirit! Cheerleading at Westside reaches new heights. Behind every good team, there is a great cheerleading squad. Westside was no dif- ferent. Both the Junior Varsity and Varsity squads gaveit their all consistently throughout football, basketball, and com- petition seasons. Their suc- cess did not come overnight. As they say, Practice makes perfect. Tryouts were held in the spring of 1997. Summer prac- tices were held once a week. The J.V. cheerleaders show their spirit as they perform at the last football pep rally Treally enjoy being a cheer- leader. You get to go to all the games and raise the spir- its of the crowd and players alike. -Whitney Setzer Once school started, practices were four days a week with games on Fridays and Satur- days. The girls always had smiles on their faces. They pulled the teams through some tough times. Many memorable moments were made on the buses, dur- ing games, performing at half time, pep rallies, and practices. They really had a great season. Without cheerleaders, its just a game. Jessica Davis, Laura Chambers, and Courtney Carney put a future Semi- nole into a prep to get the crowd ex- cited during half time JUNIOR VARSITY CHEERLEADERS Sarah Kate Griffin, Chelsea Rodgers, LeAnne Lee, Amanda Cooper, Tanya Jones, Jessica Crocker, Molly Katz, Courtney Carney, Lindsey Bennett, Laura Chambers, and Jessica Davis.
