'Do you wish school started next week?'
Cousins Stacey Bastar, 6, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. William Bastar.jr., Appleton, and Scott Richard, 4, son of Mr. and Mrs. Paul Richard, R. 2: Stacey - "I like school." Scot - "I wish school would start next week. I want to go to the big school, not nursery school."
Mark Janssen, 11, son of Mr. and Mrs. Eugene Janssen, 506 E. Lincoln, Little Chute: "I like vacationing in Door county but in a way I would like school to start next week. I would like to get back with all of my friends."
Elton Londo, 18, R. 1, Sevastopol: "I'm not ready for school to start because there is too much work on the farm yet — baling hay and getting in oats. But now that I'm graduated I know I'll miss it when school starts in the fall."
Paul LeClair, 18, Jacksonport: "I'm having too much fun playing tennis and water skiing and I'm not ready to start classes at NWTI yet."
Manya Orthober, 16, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Roger Orthober, Clark Lake: "No, I'm not ready for school to start. I love the summer. There are more things to do in the summer because it is warm out and you can lie in the sun, play tennis every day and water ski. But of course there is still work."
Brian Parsons, 7, son of Mr. and Mrs. Jim Parsons, 118 N. 8th: "Yes! I like my teacher and the school. I'm having a good time outside and playing with my friends but I would like to go to school."
Beth Schauske, 15, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Joe Schauske, Rt. 1: "No. There is too much to do right now like going to the park, lying in the sun and camping."
