�1970-1971
; 971- 972
South Fulton had served the black commumty for
decades before Russell became its sister school
with the advent of integratron in 1970. Neither
school was large enough to hold both student
bodies, so it was decided South Fulton would teach
all the eighth graders in the area.
Few photo:; exist from th1s period, as no annual was
compiled for the first two groups of eighth graders.
Grown now, the South Fultonites of 1971 and 1972
still remember their year here as a umque and
exciting experience ...

�1972-1973
"A new world awaits," said the third
generation of South Fulton eighth
graders rn the school's first annual.
They described themselves as
''laughmg, learning, and sharing."
Their teachers remember them as
bemg as unusually active and tight
knit. The friendships made by many of
them during their year here exist still,
three years after their graduation
from Russell.

�1973-1974
The students of 1973-1974 were characteristically
more serious than the classes preceeding them.
Concerned with ''hate, violence, and war,'' the
eighth graders said, "Compared to the rest of the
world we may seem small," but vowed to work for a
better tomorrow, demonstrating peace, friendship,
and understanding. Perhaps it was this same spirit
which contributed to ending the Vietnam war the
following year.

"Togetherness" was the word the 19741975 eighth graders of South Fulton
used to describe their activities. ''When
we win," wrote one student "we share
the victory. But when we lose we still feel
good because we tried. We might lose in
points, but if we do our best, we are
always winners." And they always will be

cocoon," beneficial to this
formative year of their lives.

The days of 1976-1977 were memorable
for students and teachers alike. Typically,
this class was an unusually industrious one.
There were, of course, exceptions- as
Assistant Principal Charles Crews will easily
recall. But any problems here were far
outweighed by the rewards. It was a good
year with good kids and good educators.

Fulton offered a social as well as educational
atmosphere. What more could you ask? It was fun.

continually evaluates, reevaluates, and establishes new goals
for our middle-level educational program--based on a sound
understanding of the students' needs.

Hearing the Other Side!
�You cannot teach a man
anything; you can only help
him to find it within himself.
- Galileo
A teacher who is attempting
to teach without inspiring the
pupil with a desire to learn
is hammering on cold iron.
-Horace Mann
�All to myself I think of you,
Think of the things we used
to do,
Think of the things we used
to say,
Think of each happy bygone
day,
Somet1mes I sigh, and sometimes I smile,
But I keep each olden, golden
wh1le
All to myself.
-Wilbur D. Nesbit
�I w1ll study and get ready, and
perhaps my t1me will come.
-Abraham Lmcoln
Education 1sn't play- and it can't
be made to look l1ke play. It 1s hard,
hard work. But it can be made
Interesting work.
-Thomas A. Ed1son
���The talent of success is nothing more
than doing what you can do well;
and doing well whatever you do,
without a thought of fame .
-Henry Wadsworth Longfellow
Hear the other side.

�''1977, '' ne of the coldest winters in
the United States in years. Many
schools all over the United States had
what we call unexpected "holidays".
Some schools were out completely
because the cold weather caused a
complete disaster. At least it wasn't so
cold ht!re at South Fulton that we
couldn't enjoy it. So, as you can see,
we did!

anything, is de pendent on the people involved
in its production. I would like to thank my
yearbook staff for doing what I consider an
outstanding job. With only a shon time to
learn, and no previous experience, they
composed a book that equals any I can
remember seeing.
I have grown very close to all the students at
South Fulton. You will be missed . But carry
with you this book of memories, and the wish
for future success, whatever your endeavor
might be.
I would also like to thank the following people:
Valentine Hayes, Charles Crews, Ann

��������THIS IS SOUTH FULTON!
�Six years ago, South Fulton High underwent a
dramatic change. 1970 was the year that Russell
and South Fulton became sister schools, with
Russell adopting both schools' upper classes and
South Fulton taking the eighth grades.
South Fulton differs from the traditional middle
school in that most junior highs have three grades
and South Fulton has only one. The eighth grade
is a formative year, a time when children become
young adults. At South Fulton, isolated from other
age groups, students can make a smooth growth
from elementary school to high school.
South Fulton is an experiment - for the county,
for students, and for teachers. It is a school where
students are both freshmen and seniors at once. It
is a place where friendships are made to last for
all time.
6
��Elementary school was a ladder. Seven years of climbing were necessary to reach
the top rung. South Fulton gives kids a chance to pause between ladders - to
consider what's ahead before stepping on.
"It's good for the kids to have a transition period," says math teacher, Henry
Porter, one of two teachers who have been at South Fulton through its five years as
an all eighth grade school. "They can get themselves together before going to a
full high school. The disadvantage I see is teachers don't have enough time to get
to know the kids. "
8
�9
�"We're lucky to work with such a small group that is not influenced by older kids." That is
Beverly Bell talking. Bell teaches social science and sponsors the student council. She adds: "It's
a homey atmosphere.''
10
�Willson Hahn teaches CV AE at South Fulton one period out of the day. Her other school hours are
spent teaching CVAE at Russell. Her uips from school to school made her the perfect candidate to
be asked about the all-eighth grade system. "It's a little cocoon," she said.
11
�12
��"Unique" is a recurring word in teachers' descriptions of South Fulton. Betty Stein, once a teacher at Russell, comments,
"South Fulton allows for a unique learning environment, where teachers can focus on the particular needs common to eighth
graders, while preparing them for the future learning experience in high school."
Typing teacher, Susan Cowart, says with a smile, "It's a unique experience."
She may be right.
14
�15
�This, then, is South Fulton:
A dynamic learning experience in which teachers and students harmonize their
efforts, producing results that have been talked about and respected throughout the
community. Elementary school behind them, high school ahead, they have broken
pace just a moment to breathe.
The children are not children any more.

�Competing Together
Here at South Fulton High School,
when we win, we share the victory.
But when we lose we still feel good
because we uied. We might lose in
points, but if we do our best, we are
always winners.
3
�Each student studies in his or
her own way. And no matter how
they choose to study, the teachers are always willing to help.
Working together can provide
each student with the will to try
harder.
�Working Together
5
�Playing is just one way of "getting it
all together'' at South Fulton High
School.
6
�Playing Together
Through our many clubs and organizations the students can combine
school projects with a good time outside of the classroom.

7
�The faculty at South Fulton works
vigorously preparing the students for
the future in hopes that when we leave
our school, the world will look a little
brighter. They mix work with play so
that we can all have a headstart on
life.

�Dedication
Every now and then there is a teacher who gives more than what
the average school day requires. There is such a man at South Fulton
High School. Not only is he an excellent math teacher, but he is
football coach, basketball coach, and a really great guy to all. He
maintains order and respect in his classes and keeps complete interest
while teaching. He also adds a little humor with academic reasoning. Because of all his accomplishments and effons, the 1975 LION'S
ROAR is dedicated to
Mr. Henry Porter
