"What I used to do in the Junior High.. I called myself the "Unofficial 8th Grade Advisor." Every year, we'd cell popcorn at recess and I'd have dances and raise money. Then at the end of the year, we had a graduation for the 8th graders. We had a banquet with caps and with regular gowns. I took them all to Boston for a trip, on a Sears bus, I did that for years. Then they made me quit because ours was better then the High Schools."
