School's out in June.
This year, Chicago Public Schools get out on June 17th: http://www.cps.edu/Calendar/Key_events/Pages/KeyEvents.aspx I tried finding their 1985 calendar in Google's cache, but can't seem to find it :)
If there was a foul bunt with two strikes then he would have struck out and not had a chance to hit that two run home run. Unless that particular rule has been added since 1985.
According to yahoo answers, of all places, the rule has been in place since 1909. http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index?qid=20080723181123AA...
School's out in June.
Actually, Ferris' high school, Glenbrook North High School [1], is scheduled to get out on June 9th this year [2]. School calendars usually follow similar schedules over many years, so it's reasonable to assume that it had a similar schedule in 1985, making the last scheduled day either June 6th or 13th. Plus, snow days invariably cause the school year to go a few days longer. [1] http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0091042/…
Amazing game, wish I remembered it

I will do something very archaic and actually pick up the phone and call the administration office tomorrow to find out when the last day of school was in 1985, as well as double check to make sure that June 5th was: 1. a full day and not a half 2. that seniors in fact had school that day and whether it was full or half.
UPDATE 2: Received contact from a nice woman at the district's Information Technology Office and she informed me that she sent the request to someone who can help at "GBN"...
