Wm yJ tJl THE PEREGRINE Falcon School Peyton, Colorado Volume 7 IN MEMORY OF Tammy Coate We, the students and faculty of Falcon High School of 1976, wish to dedicate this book of memo- ries to Tammy Coate, who has been an inspiration to all of us. May it compensate a little for her self-sac- rifice and the many things she has thanklessly done for us in the past. Tammy was always a very considerate person, doing or giving to others before thinking of herself. She had a good head on her shoulders, many times helping young teenagers. In this we mean convincing them of the hazards of drugs, alcohol, etc. She was a perfectionist in whatever she made her mind up to do, always showing much pride in what she did. Tammy went to school, kindergarten through fourth grades, in Stream wood, Illinois. After mov- ing to Colorado, she attended fifth grade at Andrew Jackson, sixth grade at Patric Henry, and seventh grade at Washington Irvin Junior High, all of which are in Colorado Springs . Tammy was always a great lover of the outdoors. One of her favorite pastimes was fishing. Tammy was active in 4-H last summer. She took first place at the county and state fairs for her exhib- its. Tammy was also active in many clubs at Falcon High School . As expre ssed by some of the faculty , Tammy was a good student in school. She always completed her work and was never late to class. She seemed to enjoy school and life in general. Tammy was sweet, kind, courteous, and very much aware of how other people felt. We thank you for the love you gave to people with whom you came in contact. Thank you for your warm and generous smile. WE MISS YOU!

It was known as the shoestring dis- trict because it was only three miles wide and thirty -six miles long. As settlers moved into the dis- trict, several small schools were opened. On Febru- ary 8, 1900, District 49 organized as a separate dis- trict. Between 1900 and 1954, the district experi- enced twelve different transactions of annexations and consolidations, but it was never reorganized. The two story red brick section of our school was built and dedicated in the school year 1920-1921. The new school consisted of four classrooms, a kitchen, a furnace room, a library, two restrooms, and a principal ' s office. Later, a well house, a garage, and a teacherage were added. The old building is still with us and in use. By 1935, District 58, Forest view, and Shadeland consolidated with Falcon. The Forest View building was moved to the Falcon School grounds, and it was attached to the main building in 1956. It was then used for a lunchroom, and today is known as the home economics room. Also in 1956, an addition, consisting of a gymnasium, a stage, three class- rooms, boys and girls locker rooms, and a new kitchen was added to the west of the old building joining it with the old Forest View building. In 1960, an addition containing a library, a sci- ence laboratory, two classrooms, and a dining room, was constructed. The butler building was erected in 1969. It was built to the west of the main building and it serves the first three grades of the elementary school at Falcon. In 1972-1973, a portion of Cimarron Hills was added to District 49. The enlargement of the district boundaries presented many problems. The enroll- ment increased so rapidly that the facility and fac- ulty were overcrowded and overworked. To help the problems cause by the growth, nine mobile units were bought to make more classrooms, and a larger staff and curriculum were added. In October of 1974, District 49 made an important decision. They were faced with the tremendous growth problem, and they knew they must as a dis- trict provide a good education for the children. They voted and passed a bond issue. The funds were to be used to build a new elementary school in Cimarron Hills, and a new high school just north of Falcon. Evans School in Cimarron Hills has a completed all purpose building now in use. The new high school will open with the 1976-77 school year. In its eighty-eight years of existence, the district of Falcon has changed a great deal. It will continue to progress as it has in the past, helping to guide its children toward successful and rewarding lives. Falcon — 1976 Now «u,i I, ' ll i I i:-., 4;3Ct- --fc-j- Falcon Senior High School The new Falcon Senior High School will open in ihe fall of 1976, and everyone is anxiously await- ing the start of the school year. It is a very beau- tiful structure and the entire district should be proud. BOARD OF EDUCATION Members of Board The Board of Education of Falcon, District 49, has been very active this year.

The gambit of events ranged from a trip to see the Freedom Train to just plain having fun. Here are a few memories for you to relive. Far Left: The Freedom Train, which caused most of us to have tired feet and a case of the hungries; tryouts for senior high cheerlead- ers brought some happiness and others tears; work on the yearbook, WOW!; the An Fair, What is it?; the Variety Show; our school mascot; Awards Day and John Lucas; NHS tap in ceremony; and guess who? just fooling around. These are only a few memories of the year. When we stop to reflect, it was a very good year for all. 15 SENIOR POEM It ' s graduation and it ' s unbelievable that I ' m here. They ' ll call my name in a few minutes, and I ' ll walk up to receive my diploma . . . where do I go from here? I ' ve always had the security of the school routine and its activities, sunounded by the friends I was so familiar with. Now we ' ll all be going in different directions, and I wonder how long it will be before the memories that meant so much start to fade. After twelve years of this you would think I would be ready to move on, but I feel like I ' m leaving a part of me behind. Maybe that ' s good though, because 1 really have changed in the three years that I ' ve been here. Well, pretty soon they ' ll get to my name. Then III be up there, and it ' ll be all over. In a way, I guess every- thing ' s really just beginning. 18 CLASS FAVORITES OF 76 ' Seniors of the Year ' - Daryl Tamlin Becky HoUoway Most Likely lo Succeed 7 ■ - ' ' Kevin Smith Becky HoUoway If Ai, Audie DeBusk R.

From then on, he camped on the field. He became interested in all sports, and he made them his major interest. All during his high school years, he participated in and enjoyed sports. When watching the snow coming down, he feels more than ever that Colorado is the place to be. Sometimes he daydreams about the super year he had as a junior. Too bad he can ' t go back. His only regret is that his last years were shared with the elementary and junior high schools. He would like to have been part of the new school. There aren ' t any grudges though, just a very special person . Cally Jo Dowdy A mania. That ' s what some people call it. A desire t o do something constantly. Most people experience this, but get over it quickly. Poor Cally never has. Any hour of the day or night, you can find her in the Springs playing foosball which she always does. She just can ' t quit. It all started on February 6, 1958, when she was brought into the world. Colo- rado Springs was a small town then and a nice place lo live. Ally always loved and still enjoys living in Colorado, but she wouldn ' t mind living in England. One night, as she was lying in bed, she dreamed of the great times she had as a sophomore and senior. It was nice, but for now the future looks brighter. Watch out world, Cally is coming through! ! 23 ifi i k r -- — ■-- Jeff Early Jeff was born in Tucson, Arizona, September 2, 1957.

She likes the Moody Blues and her favorite song is The Air That I Breathe . ' ' She would like to live in the mountains of Colo- rado. Her pet peeves are being alone, people breathing on her, and people cracking their knuckles. Her favorite year at school was her junior year. Roger Walton Roger was born in Colorado Springs, June 1, 1957. He has lived most of his life in Colorado. Likes and dislikes were hard to imagine, because Roger says that he likes most everything. His interests and hobbies are easier. He loves to work on stock car racers with his dad . At present time, Roger is stationed at Camp Pen- delton, in California. He is a member of the Marine Corp. He is attending school there in the field of communication. Much luck to Roger for a happy and successful career. 38 SENIOR CLASS SPONSORS Judith Thomas Mrs. Thomas has been an invaluable person to the seniors. Her task as head senior sponsor was a great and important one , not only to each senior but also to Falcon. Each senior would like to express their apprecia- tion and thanks to her for all the many details she saw to and for all the small matters she dealt with to make their graduation a most memorable one. Thank you very much. Kerstin Edgar Mrs. Edgar was the assistant senior sponsor for this years graduating class. She spent some anxious hours trying to teach the seniors the correct way to march into the auditorium for the ceremony. For naturally, coordinated seniors, they seemed to have a great deal of uouble putting one foot before the other in time to music. Maybe if that music had been rock and roll they could have managed without too much trouble . The seniors say , Thanks. 39 [ ' ( ..

Everyone contributed toward the outcome of the evening of May 26. Upon entering the auditorium, the largest class to ever graduate from Falcon saw several hundred parents, guests, faculty, and students crowded into chairs and bleachers to witness their last official panicipa- tion in a school activity. There were tears of happi- ness and joy , and some of regret. It was a very excit- ing and emotional occasion for all. ' Everyihing must be just right, Don, said Dr. Nixon. Dr. Tolben making a last minute adjustment. The PTO managed the reception. The crowd was getting anxious. The faculty members were Happy.

Davis. 81 DRAMA The Drama Depanment produced two activities this year. In December, they sponsored the Variety Show. The show involved the entire school.

The second activity was a two act play, comedy, Mash. The favorite characters from the movie and television show came to life on our stage. The cast enjoyed a night at Fargo ' s after the play.
