Manners 101
Young students
practice lady-like
behavior during
swank lunch
BY JAESON PITT
THE CHRONICLE
Chin up, shoulders back,
utensils in their proper place.
Those were just a few rules
that a select group of female
North Forsyth High School
students had to reme*iber last
week as they ended their aca
demic year with lunch at the
swank Piedmont Club. The
young ladies are members of a
North Forsyth club that
preaches the importance of
etiquette and manners. The
Piedmont Club event was the
first time that many of the 16
students had the opportunity
to put the skills they have
learned to good use.
Principal Ron Jessup creat
ed the club with the help of
members of the school's facul
ty and staff.
"We wanted.... to teach the
girls some of the characteris
tics of etiquette and also help
them to grow into woman
hood. Also, what it means to
be a young lady with aspira
tions and dreams. We've had
various teachers to teach them
about the value system and
how to carry themselves as
young ladies, how to dream
big dreams, and how to
become responsible leaders in
our school," Jessup said.
Atop the emerald-colored
BB&T building, the Piedmont
Club is the city's premier
business and social gathering
place. The spot, with its ele
gant dining rooms overlook
ing the city, provided the ulti
mate proving grounds for the
girls. The students were
undaunted, though. They had

prepared well.
Club member Shandra
Duncan said that she and the
others had reviewed the prop
er mannerisms that they have
learned prior to the field trip.
"Which utensils to use
when* eating, the different
types of forks and spoons,"
Duncan said, recalling the
checklist students reviewed
before the outing.
The past school year was
the pilot for the club.
Although etiquette and trans
forming girls into young
ladies is a key mission, those
who oversee the club have
grander plans.
"Later on, we will look for
improvement in grades, com
munity service, but we wanted
to start out by making sure
that these young ladies knew
what it takes to represent
themselves," said Sandra
Amos, a counselor who helped
to birth the program.
