http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/life-of-a-viking 3/44
It startsPicture yourself setting sail on a new expedition; a few feet away from
where you stand is a vast sea of ambiguity. You and a couple othersare given a map with instructions to climb into the boat at the edge ofthe beach. Other than these provisions, you have no idea where youare headed to. As you paddle away from shore, you start to develop anostalgic feeling of leaving home. Despite these emotions, you’vedecided its time to move on. The map leads you to a mysterious archipelagowith hundreds of magical doors levitating above each island. Each dooris full of promises and uncertainties that await you. How will you choose?
Will you lay hands on the doorknob of a clear, transparent door thatpromises a safe passage? Or will you choose to open the dark, opaquedoor, a riskier route but potentially more rewarding? Are you going to beaccompanied by others – friends with whom you can share the successesand tribulations of your journey? Or will you brave the journey alone? Thechoices that lay before you are endless, but there is no right or wronganswer: you are here to…
You’ve probably already been told a thousand times that what you do in
high school will signicantly affect your future. As you embark on your journey known as high school, do not underestimate yourself. You will bethe one who takes control of the four years you will spend at LynbrookHigh. You can make every day an adventure… or you can dread wakingup to the sound of that alarm clock at seven in the morning. You cansurround yourself with close friends that share your interests andpassions… or you can allow yourself to be mixed into an unfamiliarcrowd of strangers. You can welcome high school as an opportunity to
learn more about the world you live in, and reach to the highest peaks ofsuccess… or you can take it for granted and plummet into a deep abyss.The possibilities are innite.
Adventure, learning, challenge, responsibility - the promise of beinga Lynbrook Viking is all this and much more. So are you ready for thisadventure to begin? Then turn the page and let’s get started.

o you have what it takes to lead
your class? Then its your destiny
run to be a class officer! Positions
include: President, Vice President(s),Secretary, and Treasurer. Each class
council meetswith its advisors to or-
ganize fundraisers and prepare for
events. The class officers are
in charge of organizing
Homecoming, rally

Senior Prom, class T-shirt sales, and
socials. Elections
for the class of-
ficers are held
by the Elections
Commissioners in
late May. Candidates
must have an ASB card,meet the GPA requirement,
and collect a specific amount of sig-
natures from supporters before being
placed on the ballot. Being a class of-
ficer can be one of your most memo-
rable experiences in high school. But
be aware that this is a major timecommitment. You will always be in-
volved in some sort of project to help
your class succeed. Some days, you
may distributing restaurant
fundraiser flyers, other
days you may be vis-
iting venues for Ju-
nior Prom, butmost days, you
will create amaz-
ing decorations
to showcase your
class’s spirit at ral-
lies. You will learn
to prioritize tasks,
manage funds, leadyour class, and even create
balloon arches at 7 AM! As a class
officer, you will have the opportunity
to meet new people, enhance your
leadership skills, and make decisions
that will create your class’s legacy.
