A look at the year in review<br />
Looking back on 2006, it was a year of tremendous change at Southfield High.<br />
But little changed on the state level or the national level. The school changed<br />
leaders, but Jennifer Granholm is still the governor of Michigan, and George W.<br />
Bush is still the president of the United States. On a worldwide scale, the war in the<br />
Mideast raged throughout the year, and will likely do so in 2007. Here’s The<br />
