IN NEW BECINNINCS OF A
NEW MILLENIUM. STUDENTS AND
STAFF OF COLUMBIA COUNTY FELT A
CREA T CHANCE IN THEIR HEARTS.
NEVER EXPERIENCEINC THE HARD
WORK AND ANTICIPATION OF AN
INNAUCURAL YEAR MADE IT
DIFFICULT FOR FT. WHITE CITIZENS
TO VISUALIZE THE JOY AHEAD. THE
JOY OF CETTINC A NEW SCHOOL WITH
ALL MODERN EQUIPMENT. THE JOY
OF HA VINC SPORTS THE FIRST YEAR.
AND THE JOY OF THE FIRST HICH
SCHOOL YEARBOOK IN OVER 30 YEARS
KEPT THE STUDENTS. STAFF. AND
FAMILIES WORKINC HARD TO MAKE
THIS YEAR A CREA T SUCCESS. ADDINC
SCHOOLS MEANT COLUMBIA COUNTY
WOULD DECIDE TO MAKE VARIATIONS
IN TIME FOR HICH SCHOOL STUDENTS.
THIS MEANT SLEEPINC IN AN HOUR
The beg•nn•ng of our school year takes a detour as we temporanly stop by the portables.
LATER SINCE SCHOOL NOW BECAN AT
9:00 A.M. THIS WOULD ALLOW BUS
DRIVERS TO RUN MORE THAN THEIR
·usuAL· ROUTES. ALLOWINC SCHOOLS
TO START LATER ALSO WAS A MOVE
TO REMOVE SOME STUDENT ABSENCES.
ALLOWINC SCHOOL TO START LATER
WAS A FACTOR IN BETTER SCHOOL
ATTENDANCE. THIS YEAR THE
CITIZENS OF COLUMBIA COUNTY ALSO
COT THE FIRST TASTE OF WHAT IT
IS LIKE TO LOVE TWO FOOTBALL
TEAMS AS THE FT. WHITE INDIANS
COT A NEW VARSITY FOOTBALL TEAM
TO CO ALONC WITH A NEW SCHOOL.
SO MANY CHANCES THIS
YEAR HAVE KEPT COLUMBIA COUNTY
ON IT'S FEET. NEW SCHOOLS. NEW
TIME. AND A NEW FOOTBALL TEAM
WERE DEFINITELY NEW BECINNINCS
OF A NEW MILLENIUM NO ONE WILL
EVER FORCET.
