THE PRIDE OF GRADE EIGHT

It was September 1971, when Kevin entered the grade eight class in Rollo Bay Consolidated. He was twelve years old, and now belonged to the senior class of the school. He thought it would be a great time to let his hair grow, and grow it did. When the school year came to a close, and the weather turned much warmer, Kevin’s hair was now shoulder length, so he finally gave in and had the barber cut it. It was a great relief for his parents. He did not have so much weight to carry around that summer.

Here is a picture of Kevin before and after the big event took place.
