Caring was the key ingredient for maintaining an enjoyable environment. The Canyon High campus reflected this attitude in its neat appear- ance. Influenced by the massive construction projects near Canyon, various members of the student body worked on the landscape and other campus beautification projects. ln particu- lar is the Key Club. Members of this all-male ser- vice organization have culminated years of plan- ning with the actual landscaping of Canyon's schoolgrounds. lt is through the work of such concerned people as these, that Canyon's EEUU? IBIUIIU EKU may soon approach its fullest capacity for appre- ciation. However, students retrieving their own trash and avoiding paths through the lawns have not been common sights. So far, janitors have con- tributed to the clean-up campaign more than any others. lt seems sad that the only area in which many Comanche students lack pride is that of their surroundings, especially since envi- rons were the mainstay that Cuomanches once depended on. Perhaps, the underclassmen will begin some kind of program in which each stu- dent can actively participate. Hopefully, there will someday be a noticeable change in the atti- tudes of the students, accompanied by a better- ment of Canyon environs. ' 1. Bulldozers scar the hills of the Canyon in order to build houses in an area that once homed coyotes, squirrels, and hawks. 2. Comanche students sometimes travel on the Santa Ana Freeway,where crops are often seen being harvested nearby. 3. Key Club members Kent Dacus, Steve White, and Dan Buttrey beautify Canyon's campus by working diligently on a landscaping project. 4. Spectacular sunsets are often viewed from the hills above Canyon. 5. Construction begins on a hill directly overlooking Canyon High. ' Q: 15 M U Pl' i H H 'I I il' 'M' e if l

The goal of Canyon's curriculum this year was to enrich Comanche students' learning experiences with the addition of courses. The most successful of these new classes were ones dealing with problems of every day life. A course in Economics enabled students to understand the problems they might face in their adult lives, just as the course in Family Living did. Here students learned about marriage and family life, as well as how to deal with the problems ac- companying them. These were not the only GJEJEJ 9 introduced at Canyon this year. Special honors courses were provided for accelera- ted students in the Math, History, and English Departments. The courses, known as Advanced Placement classes, allowed interested students to work at a pace more suitable to their needs, and enabled them to learn valuable information as prepara- tion for college. The most exciting addition to Canyon's curriculum was probably found in the area of Physical Education. PE classes were formed to make use of the new swimming pool and give students ex- perience in swimming, diving, and scuba techniques. All in all, there was an over- whelming response to each new addition to Canyon's curriculum. 1. Science classes add enjoyment to learning for Steve Terschan, as he works on a chemistry lab. 2. Kathleen Menke stays after class to catch up on a chemistry lab. 3. Canyon's new pool proved to be the most universal addition to the school's curriculum as new P.E. classes formed to put it to use. Here, students in scuba class enjoy the experience of learning in a liquid environ- ment. 4. Singers Tim Carey and Nancy Garber get mu- sically involved as Phil Berriman, Cindy Simpson, and Allen Bradley harmonize. 5. Learning to drive on a simulator produces a smile on the face of Pam Galvez during her Driver's Education class.
