fir DIAMOND BAR hat were Diamond Bar High School's True Colors? They were the things that made Diamond Bar High School better, or worse, or just different. Was it because Diamond Bar students had purple and gold blood running through their bodies? Or was it something different? Maybe an internal commitment. l'ue gone to many different schools, and lfind a different attitude at Diamond Bar. They seem to think they are better. lt's just an attitude they haue, remarked senior Dennis Kim, But sometimes I find myself doing it also, it's infectious. So where was the root of this infectious thinking? Why did Diamond Bar students think they were bet- ter? lt sprang from Diamond Bar's True Colors. The motivation beneath the surface to be better. lt came from people like Dale Favier, Director of Student Activities, who not only expected a per- son 's best effort, but demanded it. lt came from the numerous Hacienda and Sierra League titles, along with the CIF championship banners hanging in the gym. lt came from an expanded academic pro- gram, which included cz new fB150,000.00 com- puterfphysics lab. To be better, to be different, to try harder than anyone else. These were Diamond Bar High School 's True Colors. They were the unwritten code which the students followed, and they could be found on many places on the campus. Ml like this school and lfeel a certain sense of loyalty to it, I think a lot of people do. It's a good school, in spite of its faults, remarked senior -.1 Martha Kline. T, , 4 . . .ai ,Xtikfx .

A major new addition to the school, completed in the summer, was a PhysicsfChemistry laboratory. This new lab was possible due to the support of the Brahma Boosters. Because of the new lab, students were able to take Physics on the DBHS campus in- stead of having to be bussed to Walnut High School. Junior Isabella Moy said, I'm glad that we don 't have to ship people off Ito Walnut1! The face of DBHS also changed as new portables were added, housing classrooms, Grade Level Coordinator Kris Davis' office and the career center. Under the guidance of Chris Sheffer, the career center helped students with job placement, and information on colleges, testing and scholarships. Senior James Manson said, We have high lacademicf standards, but there is always room for improvement. Additional changes were made in the constantly evolving academic curriculum with the hiring of additional teachers and new class offer- ings such as Economics and an Advanced Place- ment class entitled Art and Man. Senior Araxi Kitsinian concluded, Com- pared to other schools, DBHS goes the extra mile in everything. Everything done here is done with the utmost of everything. The school is as dedicated to its students as we are to it. r X 1 Q i If, T X XC' t Q26 XA QENN D Xlvx X K! ax QL G bk I , y ,-XXL! x WWC!
