Class of 1979 -- [img]graemlins/wavin.gif[/img] hey there, all you other '79er's (or 39+er's, if we go by age)!

Bishop Moore High School, Orlando, FL. Our colors were black & gold and we were the Fighting Hornets (we were stinging bugs -- that'll put fear in your heart! [img]images/icons/rolleyes.gif[/img] ).

And yes, most of us were CM's at one time or another.

I graduated from Easton High School in 1997. Our colors were red and black and the mascot was the Red Rover. (Terrifying, a cute little wrinkly dog, right? [img]images/icons/rolleyes.gif[/img] ) Ou rival school was Phillipsburg High (NJ) and their mascot was some sort of cat. Dogs vs. cats, no surprise there right?

Was anybody else involved in school politics or clubs?

I was the president of, you guessed it, the Environmental Club, S.A.V.E. - Students Against Violating the Earth. And because of that I was on President's Council - the Senior Class' governing body. I was also in choir, Art Honor Society, Drama Club, S.A.D.D., and Multicultural Club.

I just checked my yearbook and found a few more clubs that I was in and forgot about - Amnesty International, Youthink (an art magazine), and an improv group through Peer Assistance (I can't remember what the group is called though [img]graemlins/blush.gif[/img] ).

So what did you do in high school?

I graduated from Addison Trail High School in 1988. Our colors were navy blue, white, and gold. We were the Blazers (trail blazers). But, our mascot was Bucky Blazer a fireball with stick arms and legs. Ohhh Scary!

Our fight song (eh-hem)! Raise our banner, navy blue and white, always high. We can do it! We can win the fight. Victory! We can beat em. Don't you worry now. We can beat em with ease. Blast ahead with each game. Everyone knows our name. AT Blazers GOOOOOOO! (I always wanted to be a cheerleader [img]images/icons/wink.gif[/img] )

As for extra activites, I was in the Art Club and FBLA. I also helped my friend on the yearbook.

I graduated in 1996 from Warsaw Central High School (NY) - Home of the TIGERS! GRRRrrr!!! Our school colors were Orange & Black.

I participated in the following sports/clubs:
Soccer, Volleyball, Cheerleading, Softball, Ski Club, Mathletes, Student Council, Drama Club, Chorus, & Band

[TINKN]

DH and I were in the Mill River Union High School class of 1992. We were the Minutemen or Minutemaids [img]images/icons/rolleyes.gif[/img] . Our school colors were red, white and blue. Our ten year reunion should be this year, but no word about it yet.

DH was sweeper on the soccer team and center on the basketball team. I was his most adoring fan. I helped keep stats and ran the time clock.

I am not of the athletic sort. I was editor of the yearbook, a member of the Key Club, Mathcounts, SADD and was in one play. I was also my school's Pumpkin Princess (kinda like homecoming Queen except it's decided by a panel of judges and an interview session and you compete against the other schools in the area for the title of Pumpkin Queen and then you get the lead the Halloween Parade).

Oh, and DH and I were voted class couple.

[PS - I LUV WDW]

Brockton High School (Brockton Mass) Class of 1981. Lovely school colors of black and red. Go Boxers!

I graduated from Cardinal Cushing Central High School for Girls in South Boston, MA in 1989. 13 years ago May 27 to be exact. I didn't live in Southie, I lived in Somerville and commuted everyday.

The basketball team was the Cushing Celtics (pronounced Keltics) and our school colors were maroon and gold.

I was in the student writers, peer leaders and drama!

[img]graemlins/wavin.gif[/img] [img]graemlins/wavin.gif[/img] Greenwich High School (The Cardinals)class of '78 here. Our school colors were red and white. We were the first graduating class to go through all three years at the new highschool and the largest class up until that point of approx. 1100!

I graduated from Elmwood Park High, class of 1975. Our school colors were red and white and we were the Crusaders. I was in the National Honor Society, and on the newspaper staff and the yearbook staff.

Hubby graduated from Parsippany Hills High School in 1978 and they were the Vikings. Don't know his school colors. I know he was in the band.

"Class of 1980" from Rantoul Township High in Illinois. Purple and Gold were our colors and we were the "Eagles". I dated a football player too, not all that is cracked up to be...anywho, I was on the girl's track team and did not even know I could run until I got the school record in the mile run in my first trackmeet! WOW, what a suprise to me! [img]images/icons/shocked.gif[/img] It was hard work but a lot of fun. [img]images/icons/grin.gif[/img] Let see, I liked all of the business type classes, especially shorthand. Boy, I really sound old saying the word "shorthand". I wasn't a "nerd" and I wasn't a "snoody", popular type. I was kinda in the middle there, I guess.

My daughter just had her "get acquainted" night at the same high school! Wow, I can't believe my baby will be going to the same high school. She is much more smarter than moma! [img]graemlins/love.gif[/img]

Boy..This one really brings it back!!
I graduated in 1955 (the year DL opened)..from Robbinsdale HS..with the fitting mascot of the ROBIN!!!
Didn't inspire much fear it opponents hearts,however!!!
Our school colors were royal blue and gold..
(but I suppose brown and orange would have been more appropriate!)
"There's a yell from the students and teachers as our team goes marching by..
There's a cheer from the stands and the bleachers as they play to do or die!
At the half you can tell why the gang came..
They're the team that can not fail!
For the winner of this ballgame is good old ROBBINSDALE!!!!"

Ah..yes..I can remember this..but not where I put my car keys!!!

Too funny, Beth.

Let's see... Class of 1977, Austin High School,
Colors were Orange and Black and we were/are the Black Bears.

Never been accused of being athletic or graceful, I was more the studious type... wrote for the student paper, wrote the Senior Motto, Honor Societies, FBLA (won 3rd place in state shorthand competition), Tri Hi Y (sp?), Spanish Club -- I was a real egghead!

And didn't that shorthand talent come in real handy -- NOT! [img]images/icons/blush.gif[/img]

I graduated in 1987 from Fairlawn High School, home of the "Jets". Our colors were royal blue and white. We are having our 15th year reunion this year!
