I remember nights at Sambos and Nights in the thater. One Sad memory is the night the theater burned down. I will never forget running down the back of the seats, and what I thought were great productions.

I like Bert Wilkerson was so shy and introverted it is amazing that I go to know anyone. With all the time I spent studying and then all the school activities, it is a wonder I got out as quick as I did. I look very forward to seeing you all at the reunion. If none of you have seen me in awhile, I will be the one with the cap with two tassles on. One for the year I was to graduate, and one for the year I did. See ya soon, David

Okay, y'all, I'm from the Class of 1967 -- but wanted to pop in and wish you a WONDERFUL time together at your reunion. Those of you who are unsure about whether to attend or not, take my advice and GO! Touch base with friends you haven't seen in forever, and renew those relationships. Go, ROCKS!

Okay....I found out today that someone (and I won't tell who) knows that Jay Crull...a fellow Rock who was a few years ahead of us.....was the one who drove the motorcyle down the main hallway at St. Andrews! That would be just like him to do so! But, I am sorry to say that I see in todays paper that Jay has just passed away. I know the people who knew him must have had lots and lots of laughs as I hear that Jay was a true free spirit!

HAHAHA! Reading some of these posts will spark some memories and what Ellen said earlier....she remembers the bad stuff LOL....well, I hope that wasn't my brother who rode his motorcycle in the hallway...it seems to me that he did do that, however, he did SO MANY bad/funny things...I just can't remember if it was him or not. He was six years older than me and always getting into trouble!! The mention of Mr. McGrath....gosh, I forgot about him! He was too funny. He really made everyone laugh on a daily basis! And there was mention of Ms. Austin...oh yeah...the guys REALLY liked her.... she was beautiful...I was thinking that she taught sociology though, however, I would have to look it up in the annual. I dropped the class b/c she spent our class time in the hallway flurting with some man!! And Mrs. Jefferson, OMG.......she was a trip.....now that was a funny lady...and one day during class, she got all fired up and excited about what we were cooking and she got to talking really fast...about that time her false teeth came flying out of her mouth onto the floor and rolled right in front of where I was sitting......I about died laughing!!!

Hey, I remember something about the motorcycle person driving down the front hall! Does anyone know who it was? I was always proud to be a "ROCK" but, never understood why a rock as a mascot! Yea, it was cool having a smoking area in our school. Can't believe it took nearly 30 years to stop smoking in public places. Speaking of the Sadie Hawkins Dance, it was amazing home many girls had those Daisy Dukes. And how short they were! Here's a funny one for ya! I got a little too close to those concrete benches out in front of the school. I drove my fiance's car to school one day. I pulled up close to a friend who was on the bench...well it was a little too close. I scraped his car down the side. Wow, was the embarrasing! Didn't do it again! LOL I'm sure we all have a few of those memories!!!!

OK. Laugh but I remember all of the "bad" stuff! Someone in the spring of 1978 rode a motorcycle through the front hall. This included 3 steps up and 3 steps down! Who was it? I remember eating a LOT of Burrito Supremes. I still cannot believe we had a smoking area! Is that too much!? People still cannot believe our school mascot was a rock. (Yes, yes I know the history, but it is a tad unusual!) Remember the good looking Anthopolgy teacher? What was her name Ms Austin? She of the long tan legs, short skirt and high stool. Very popular class with the guys. Mr McGrath in art made me laugh so much. I painted that wild horse mural my last year there. Someone else did the Star Trek one, which was great. I remember some pretty wild outfits on Sadie Hawkins day. (Daisy Dukes!) I remember Rocky Arcado (sp?) having an accident with a chainsaw clearing out by the bus lot and all the girls were so alarmed. "Not in the face was it?!" Didn't want any harm to come to that handsome face! I remember people hooked on the Young and the Restless, (Luke and Laura) and watching it with the French teacher at lunch.

Okay Debora Sister/Girl - I see you have mentioned the old water ballons, however, we both know that SOME were, let's say, "acidentally" dropped from the overpass by the smoking area. Sorry for those inocent victims who had to walk around wet for a few hours! And for those who saw us running down the hallway as fast as we could go....well now you know WHY!! Can't say that I was the best influence on Debora...or was it the other way around?? HAHAHA! No, I wasn't the angel of the rocks group, but I have LOTS of fond memories of laughing until our sides hurt, letting others in on what was so funny...even if we didn't hang together...and then when the last bell had rung......we would see WHO would make it to the stables first whether it was for the eqestrian team practice for the school or just freedom and pleasure! Thanks to Debora, Cindy D., and Schell for making it interesting and fun!

I remember a 50's sock hop in the 9th grade. Does anyone else remember that sock hop? I did a chalk art drawing of a tree on the front lawn, with a park bench around it. I entered it for art class for the Coastal Carolina Fair. I remember helping keep score at a benefit basketball game we held in the gym. It was our school vs a bunch of radio DJ's...one was from WKTM......remember?

Senior lawn under the oaks. Playing for a state champioship in Basketball. Quinton Freeman, Sandy, David Terry and the guys on the team. Driving the bus for wrestling matches watching our guys win like Raymond Harder Band our senior year straight superiors at Concert Festival. Watersking in winter on the Stono What about Mrs Arnown for Algerbra. The woman never smiled.

I would like to say i had many memories of high school, but when you are shy,introverted book worm as I was then socializing was just out of the question. After finishing Harvard and then Yale for my doctorate I have found the time to "hang out" at the local library on Wednesday nights and can now say I have really found my wild side. If only had known of this lifestyle thirty years ago.

My most memorable moment was in Speach Class. It was the day the teacher decided we needed to do impromptu speaches. And the first person she calls on (naturally a male), gets up on the stage and starts his speach, with a straight face, saying *"You know those commercials that come on tv? ...The ones while your sitting there with your girlfriend? ...And you just want to crawl under the couch..."* I don't remember who it was, but to this day I remember what he said and that he had the guts to get up there in front of everyone and talk about it.

I remember doing those skits in Spanish class for Mrs. Hernandez and the fear she could put in your mind if you spoke a word of English! Randy McNeil and I did a skit as Batman and Robin. I remember loving geometry in Miss Compton's class, Mrs. Blakely for English, we had good teachers, Mrs. Anderson keeping us straight in our accounting! Remember the old days learning to type on those typewriters? I remember those brutal hot August days of football camp, sucking down salt tablets like candy, now they tell us we should have died from that! I remember playing b-ball in the gym, even on some days we were not supposed to be in there (nuff said!).

I remember having Mrs. Jefferson for Home Ec. We thought it was corney then, but she was a good teacher. If you were willing to learn she'd help you. I'm glad I paid attention. Since I got married right out of school...The skills sure gave me a jumpstart on my life as wife and mother! Then there was Mr. Richardson for English. He was a "cool" teacher. I remember he seemed to hang around Ms Pam Robinson alot. Does anyone know something I didn't? I always wondered if they were an item!

I remember giving blood and doing other things that helped us win the 1978 School of the Year. I remember that stupid jingle for Beneficial that woke me up every morning for school. The same commericials and songs played at the same time every morning. You know the one... Toot Toot.. It's Benificiall Your good for more" . I remember we had awesome sports teams... football and baseball.. basketball. I remember the girls Volleyball team won something. I think this exercise is good for warding off Alzheimers. Linda

The thing that most people might not remember is the day after graduation, the Rocks baseball team won the AAA state champioship. We traveled to Sceneca SC and beat the Bobcats 9-6 behind the inspiration of Bobby Watts.

Yep, I remember eating at McDonald's, Wendy's, etc. except that I took that senior privilege for four years! Call it a football QB privilege. I remember several of the guys picking up the rear of a VW that had parked in front of the senior steps and setting it on the senior steps. I still listen to the music of those years...I'm sure most of us do. Good times!

I remember the senior steps and how the underclassmen would have their pants taken off and run up the flagpole! J Pep rallies were a lot of fun getting ready for the games. Typing class with big clunky typewriters compared to what we have now. High school was such a carefree time, although we didn’t think so at the time. Cann't forget my best friend Sally Jenkins, frustrated with trying to teach me how to drive a stickshift!

Well I enjoyed my years at St. Andrews. Some of the teachers were very caring, others were tough as nails! I remember all the pep rally's, there was alot of school spirit. Another memory I have is being able to leave for lunch. There was always a line at the Piggly Wiggly...their red rice was to die for! Then there was the corner store. (7-eleven i think).
