- ■J NATALIE JACKSON CHALLENGER ' S PRIDE Without a challenge there ' s no future. Follow us and let us lead the way. We ' ll show you all the beauty we possess inside. It gives us a sense of pride. It makes life easier. Why not let our love for life remind us how we used to be? Everybody ' s searching for a hero. People need someone to look up to. Until we were Challengers, we could not fulfill our needs. What a lonely place to be until I learned to depend on me. We decided long ago, never to walk in anyone ' s shadow; how can we fail? We must succeed, because when you ' re a Challenger, you ' re born to lead. No matter what they take from us, you ' ll always hear us say we must, we must. Because the greatest test you give you give it to yourself and facing the challenges in life is trusting yourself above all else. And if by chance our path grows dim, we ' ve not set our goals too high. Each day our lives have just begun. REACH BACK AND GET YOUR CHALLENGERS ' PRIDE. CONGRATULATIONS c o 89 Challengers To my daughter, NATALIE This is dedicated to my daughter, Natalie, who I affectionately call Angel. Writing the words for the Senior song was one of the greatest honors of my life. But being able to write it for the 1989 Senior class of Crenshaw High was easy because I was inspired by my daughter, Natalie. Love Mother 156
