Going to school in the 1970s was already very cool, but free-period in the 70s was legendary. Between the bell rings, hallways and parking lots there were kids trying to make the most out of every single moment.
It was the era of cool haircuts, denim and an after-school freedom that just doesn’t exist anymore. Hanging out around the cars, passing cigarettes, sharing stories with your friends, all while waiting for the next class.
These were the moments that made heading back home every afternoon feel worth it, having a story to tell at dinner time and excited for the next day.
