lnstalled at the end of last year were 13 security cameras inside

and outside of the school. The cameras were placed to view every door-

way, hallway and all angles of the parking lot to insure the safety of the

students. This year, students began to get used to the 24-hour moni-

tonng system. Along with the cameras, increased secunty and locked

doors were another difference students had to face. As a result of

these differences, students were restncted to walk outside through the

two main doors on the north and west sides of the main entrance.

Because of the restnctions and the oversized freshman class,

pass1ng periods were extended an extra minute. Another difference that

came along With the freshmen was a new GPA system and requirements.

The JUnior and senior classes were faced with yet another differ-

ence from past years. For the juniors, the luxury of modified open campus

was taken away. For the seniors, a four-class minimum requ irement was

enforced.

Spaghetti strap tank tops, halter tops, and tube tops were banned .

from the building along With short shorts. These restrictions made a

difference in the way students shopped in the community for school-

appropriate clothes.

Along with success in academics area, MN was named the first

lnternational Baccalaureate school in the state of Nebraska The program

provided selected participants with opportunities to research particular

areas of interests, while still getting to study a broad variety of other

areas. This was a difference both students and staff were proud to

accept.

Whatever the differences MN experienced this year, most things

were able to rema in the same.
