Bruce Barton People live through expressions. We, as the youth of today, are faced with the problem of expressing our feelings, our views, our goals, to the outside world. We are faced with failure and rejection yet because we are young we rise and begin again with new and bet- ter ideas and ways to express them. The years spent in high school are our formative years. Here we learn to accept responsibilities, to become leaders, and to use the knowledge we gain everyday. Here we try to express ourselves to our companions. Here we first experience failure. Here we first experience success. Our success in future years we owe to our Alma Mater and the adults who taught us to express ourselves in such a manner, that we are heard by all. In these following pages we can observe ourselves during this important period of our lives. Here we will always be able to see ourselves striving to express our desires through our school, and all the pleasures that came with it. Let this be a record that all will be able to read and review over and over again and with each time be able to find a new part of himself through his expressions. DEDICATION f ' : . immiMi mi The Senior Class of 1969 Perris High School Every year the problem arises as to whom the Yearbook be dedicated to, and of course, is there anj ' one who deserves it. This year instead of an individual, an entire group was chosen to receive this honor; the Senior Class. For three yours, tlie students in this class have gone to school with each other, and friendships were built; many strong friemlships tliat will endure the passage of time. New adults were made out of the students tliat began at Perris. Kach individual has had new responsibilities given to him which have helped to form :i more matuj ' e adult. The success of the class depends on the leatlership tliat tl e class has had from presidents, advisors, teachers, and administrators, but most of all on U e cooperation from the individual class memlxTs. Kven tliough many times were hard and activities, plans, and hopes seeme l to fall apart l)efore their completion, this Senior rhits can consider their years at Perris a great success. So to you, the Senior Class of 19(i ' J, this 19G9 Kl Perrisito is de licote l. A friend is a person with whom I may be sincere. Before him, I may think aloud. STUDENT LIFE ' I REMEMBER WHEN. ..

Faculty Game Benefits Senior Each year the faculty at the high school and the faculty at the junior high sponsor and participate in a basketball game against one another.

People and Have you ever stopped to watch the faces of people as the} go a x ut their ways each day? Their expressions reflect their thoughts, their personalities, their outlook on life and on people — perhaps an idea about to be hatched or a prank alx)ut to be played. The camera catches people in the act — whether it is the act of concentration in the classroom or some less creditable act. These faces reflect thought; fa( sr-s IjaJi • • ' • ' • t: l-1 i - TK. ¥ Faces curiositj ' , nonchalance, mirth — all these and more, perhaps an inner feeling that cannot be captured in a fleeting moment except by catching tliat moment on film. Snowball 1969 Style Each year the Girls ' Athletic Association sponsors the traditional girl-ask-bo - Snowball. The formal dance was held on Januar ' 11th from 9-12 in the high school cafeteria. The theme was Winter Wonder- land. The decorations included large tumbleweed snowmen and colorful streamers. The King and Queen, chosen bj- the members of the G..- .

Every teacher, every class, benefits us in our development. Our school is made up of many divisions in education. English and Social Studies are only two of these divisions. For the three years spent in high school, each student is required to take at least three years of English and three years of Social Studies. Our teachers help to make these classes something the students enjoy and profit from. It is from these classes that we draw knowledge that we use every day and are not particularly aware of it. These classes are the basic fundamentals of our life and education. -■ J JL Schumann Cherry Wylie Smith Ti-umen O ' Doherty 21 Janlcp Brll Norman Fowlc Ann ContI TRADES Leonard Flom Kenneth Mnrtln Doll CfUrtlon-I 088 LANGUAGES Howard Loavltl Linda Lamb t 4 22 r ♦ Steve KleiQ Robert Mabee Darrell McCall AND ARTS There are many classes offered to the student in the trade and art divisions of our school. Students can take business courses which acquaint them with business machines, shorthand, filing, and tyising. These courses help prepare the student for the business world. The student interested in industrial arts can take metal and wood shop classes. Here the student is free to create what he might imagine from the material he is confronted with. A student can also learn printing and drafting in an excellent class. He can here become acquainted with architecture and the printing process. The art-minded student is aided in his efforts by our art division headed by Mr. Klein. This is another area in which the creativitj ' of the individual may be recognized. The agricultural sect ion is headed by Mr. Fowle. In a farming communitj ' such as Perris Valley, the value of studying agriculture cannot be overemphasized. Perris offers French, Spanish, and German as languages that students may study. Physical Education is required for all three years spent in high school. Here the students can develop their bodies and spend an hour each dav in active exercise.

He has the chance to select from such classes as biology, chemistry, and physics. To help him in science, he can take many levels of math ranging from Algebra I, to Senior Math. Perris offers science and math for all students. A new reading division is an addition at Perris High School. A portable class- room has been moved in to accommodate this new addition. Also, a general edu- cation program has been added and im- provutl on in the last few years. Raymond Robertson GENERAL EDUCATION Joe Smith Claude Ward LIBRARIAN Mrs. Jay i Irs.

JANITORS Our Janitors work hard to give us a clean school and one that each individual student may be proud of. .Man - times the - are called upon for repairs. Without their help, our school system could not be the smooth working sj ' stem that it is. The bus drivers provide the students transporta- tion to and from school, to and from games, and transporUition for field trips. There is much re- sponsibilitj- in driving a school bus and in trans- porting a student. They are an essential part of our system.

Its possession is the great distinction between youth and age. Youth is past when the sensation of adventure is ended, when instead of boundless expectation and of curiosity that penetrates into all the corners of existence, a man is content to take things as they are, when eager- ness gives way to complacency and questioning to the cynicism of experience. The man devoid of curiosity is the man who in the end attains to nothing. UNDERCLASSMEN 27 Ill iifmtinfi.fottfli SOPHOMORE CLASS The Sophomore Class began it ' s year at Perris High, with tremendous school spirit and a willing- ness to learn and to adjust. The largest class enrolled at Perris High has displayed it ' s vigor and love for life and excitement by joining the other students of Perris and working in activities and Student Council. They can reflect back on their first year at Perris with fond memories of a great school year. I Mrs. Jny tplls n Sophomore class atx ut the library. aOPHOMOHE CLASS OrnCriUS. from Irfl: Kothy Kvnns.

They began the year off by Riving the Senior Class competition for their Num- ber 1 spot, by winning most of the activities and by loading in activity points. But as the year prog- ressed, they found themselves in the Number 2 spot again. They have worked hard and have spent a successful year. They now look forward to their final year at Perris, with hopes, high aspirations, and a sigh of relief knowing that they have com- pleted the first two years in high school.

This class has finally reached what could be considered the high point of their entire school career. They are now Seniors ! They can reflect back on their past years and see their growth both physical and mental. They are gratified by their accomplishments and especially by the successful years that they spent at Perris High. Led by strong class officers and helpful advisors, their last year has made an impression on many students. Even though they were handicapped by their small size, their spirit and enthusiasm made up for the weakness. The Senior class play, the Prom, the games, their last Homecoming, their classes all become cherished memories to each individual. Now they go forward to the next years, motivated by these thoughts and experiences of their high school years. Each graduating Senior looks back at Perris with different emotions but each with a special memory.

To know the thoughts and deeds that have marked man ' s progress is to feel the great heart-throbs of humanity- throughout the cen- turies; and if one does not feel in these pulsations a heavenward striving, one must indeed be deaf to the harmonies of life.

The world is moved along, not only by the mighty shoves of its heroes, but also by the aggregate of the tiny pushes of each honest worker. Helen Keller eiker, ORGANIZATIONS ihols, 69 Student Leaders — The Student Council The Student Council is composed of two different branches, the executive branch and the legislative branch . The legislative branch is made up of club and class presidents and the pep squad. The axecutive branch is made up of the President, Vice President, Secretary, Treasurer, and various Commissioners. Each com- missioner chooses students who arc not on the Student Council to work on their commission and one teacher to sponsor it. This group of people work hard as the representatives of the student body.

The editor for next year Julie Baldwin Is chosen bj- the current editor, Monica, and the ad Msor. Few people are aware of the many hours that go into producing the yearbook that Is given to the students on Class Night. Evcr ' page must be drawn exactly to scale and exactly how the st;iff wants it to be in the final copy. Pictures must Ix; taken, layouts designed, copy written, and the final draft drawn up and sent in. The yearlx)ok is an example of students efforts in Journalism and it ' s principles. Vcr ' few have had ex- perience before l)ut the ' loarn quickly. The staff this year included: editor, assistant ed- itor, business managers, sports editor, typists, art editors, photography, underclassmen editors, all students who do Jobs in each of the various sections. { Einino, VIvInn, Rhoda, and Ghoanoy look to past yearbooks as references for our yearbook. 72 te to Complete Perrisito Randy Curtis, photographer, explains the camera he uses to Rhoda Wright and Elaine Kelsch. Christine Direux and Albert Johnson, art editors, have drawn all the art work that is seen in this yearbook. Each student on the staff has a particular job to complete for the Yearbook. The staff included Randy Curtis, photo- grapher; Christine Direux and Albert Johnson, art editors; Elaine Kelsch and Thelbert Roberts, sports editors; Mary Squier and Sharon Rawlings, business managers; Sandy Chapman and Ghaaney Hadee, underclassmen editors; and Rhoda Wright and Vivian Sanchez helped in each individual area. Without the efforts of each student on the staff, and with- out the support of the entire school, Perris would not have their El Perrisito. Sandy Chapman worked as the Underclassmen Editor.

The officers of the student chapter include Marilyn Giardinelli, President; Christine Shores, Vice Pres- ident; Rhoda Wright, Secretary; and Sharon Rawlings, Treasurer. Mr. Robertson is the advisor. Few people fully understand the American Field Service Program. The organization is found all over the world. It gives young people from other countries an opportunitj- to visit the United States for a period of twelve months. Each foreign student lives in a private home and attends school at the high school in their area. The A.F.S. also sponsors an Americans Abroad Program which enables an American Student to go to a foreign country to stay either one year or three months. In our area, we have a student chapter and an adult chapter which work together to raise money to welcome a student to Perris or to sponsor one of our students. Christine Ishida went on the Americans Abroad Pro- gram last year, to Germany. Now, two of our students, Becky McGroty and Bill Espinoza, are being considered for the Americans Abroad Program. Perris welcomes Eli Jorgensen from Norway, This club is verj ' popular among the students at Perris. 75 f t:iliIornln Scholnr.ship Federation, loft to right: Valarle Washington, Cindy Starncs, Uerniece WaMhington.

All the clubs in the De Anza League sponsor a sports day to be held at their particular school . These days Include such sports as volleyball, baseball, and basketball. Each girl looks forward to the sports daj ' s. The G.A.A. sponsors the Snowball which has become a tradition at Perris. In an effort to raise money, they also sponsored a basketball game between the faculty and the California Cuties. The Cuties are a team of men who dress as women and travel around to the differ ent schools to help them raise money. This game drew a large crowd and was very axciting and humorous. The officers this year include Elaine Kelsch, President; Rhoda Wright, Vice President; Christine Shores, Secretary; and Sharon Luckle, Treas- urer.

But even though all we have arc memories, oftentimes these are sweeter than the true experiences. May this yearbook be a pleasant memory to the students and teachers at Pcrris. Let it always be thought of as a part of themselves. Now as we go out into a new stage of our lives, I would like to leave a thought with each of you. This special thought is expressed in the following poem by Nixon Waterman. UNDERSTANDING If I knew you :md you knew me. If both of us could clearly see. And with an inner sight divine The mc:uiing of your heart ;uid mine, I ' m sure that we would differ less, And clasp our hands in friendliness; Our thought would pleasantly agree If I knew you and you knew me. 120 Mfi r Anmoomm  tc
