My school had lots of things for the kids to do. And I took photos of them.

Like every high school, St. Joseph Academy had various clubs and offices so we kids could learn to govern ourselves. At the time, it just seemed like time-fillers; but, of course, now I realize we were learning skills then that would apply to our adult lives.

As yearbook photographer, I had the assignment of photographing the various clubs and their officers. Not all the photos made it into the yearbook, so some of these are being seen for the first time!

Meanwhile, while going through these photos, I came upon this bit of horror. Through the years, I've always stumbled on the name: Was it St. Joseph Adademy, or St. Joseph's Academy? Well, it turns out it was both! This may have been a clever device to assist in identifying students, like me, with OCD!
