The small Texas school that I attended carried out a tradition every year during the
eighth grade graduation: a beautiful gold and green jacketl the school colors, was
awarded to the class valedictorian, the student who had maintained the highest grade for
eight years. The scholarship jacket had a big gold S on the left front side and the winner's
name was written in gold letters on the pocket.
My oldest sister Rosie had won the jacket a few years back and I fully expected to Chunk: Chunk:
win also. I was fourteen and in the eighth grade. I had been a straight A student since the
first grade, and the last year I had looked forward to owning that jacket, My father was a
farm laborer who couldn't earn enough money to feed eight children, so when I was six
was given to my grandparents to raise. We couldn't participate in sports in school because
there were registration fees, uniform costs, and trips out of town; so even though we were
quite agile and athletic there would never be a sports school jacket for us. This one, the
scholarship jacket, was our only chance.
