Cape Charles High School - Arrow Yearbook (Cape Charles, VA)

Text from Pages 1 - 136 of the 1979 volume:

And within this school was a lost of aliens known to all as the Tearbook Staff, who decided in the ear a.d. 1979 to bring to their fel- ow classmates a book of memo- ies that would last for many billion ight-years to come, calling it. . . And on this planet there was a small town by the sea known far and wide as Cape Charles. Cape Charles had its school system of which its inhabitants were very proud. . . CLOSE ENCOUNTERS OF The Yearbook Staff very proudly dedicates the 1979 ARROW to a very great woman; one who not only gradu- ated from Cape Charles, but one who is working with us every day that we are in school. In her school years she participated in basketball, soft- ball, cheerleading, Tri-Hi-Y, Model General Assembly, Honor Society, Yearbook Staff, and many class offices. She now has three children in Cape Charles High School and is a member of the PTA, the Band Boosters, and the Athletic Foundation. She devotes much of her time helping Cape Charles Hinh School and is also our school clerk. We congratulate you, MRS. NORMA PARKS SPENCER for your generosity and time to our school and commu- nity. .

For some, the outset of summer means putting away the books, turning in the maroon and gold uniforms, and putting away the instruments and batons for awhile. However, there are those who will be leaving the halls and classes of Cape Charles High School for good. Some will have left happily, some will have left knowing that Cape Charles High has been a part of their lives which will never be erased from their memories. It is my hope that your schooling has touched you in some way which will motivate you to help others and will help you to make a contribution to your community, state, nation, and the world. Yes, the 1978-79 school year has gone but the staff of the ARROW has put together for you a book which captures in pictures and words your times of learning laughter at Cape Charles High. For those of you leaving school and for those of you returning to school, it is my hope that you will always be eager to learn. Stewart W.

Juniors receive rings, prepare for prom Yvette Baker Lois Ballard Irish Beckett Juanita Beckett Kim Beckett What can anyone say to 27 young men and women who have put their brains through eleven years of constant saturation of knowledge? (First you must ask your English teacher what satura- tion means.) The only thing one can say is to hang in there — you’ve only got one more to go! The juniors are one class already on the go! Like most upper class- men, they take an active part in sports, clubs, and the band. In fact, they are the Prom Committee. As tradition goes, the junior class organizes and sponsors the annual Junior-Senior Prom. They have been very busy with car washes, bingos, and bake sales raising funds for the band, food, and deco- rations. Hopefully, their hard work and determination will pay off when the juniors and seniors are swept off their feet one evening in May. This year was the first time that the junior class received their rings in September rather than in Decem- ber. This was made possible by ordering last year. The entire stu- dent body knew when the rings had arrived; a day did not go by without having at least three different stones thrust in most everybody’s face! It only took a few weeks for the excitement to wear off . . . strange that it was right around report card time. Photographs not available: Syl- vester Bailey, Michele Roehm, and Dwayne Wilkins.

Homeroom 12B: the junior “outcasts” Nine members of the junior class are not classified as juniors at all. No,they did not flunk. Quite the contrary . . . they are actually sen- iors. They enjoy all the priviliges that the regular seniors do (what privileges?!) with one exception — they will not graduate in June. Why so? Well, they have earned enough credits to be considered seniors (18 credits to move from the junior to the senior homeroom; 23 credits to graduate) although they have not completed the required senior courses for graduation (English 12 and Government). This is the first year that such an unusual homeroom has been established, which was due to the lessening of the requirements set for passing from grade to grade. These students, Johnny Brooks, Patricia Bull, Theresa Harlow, Pat Jones, Teresa Powell, Michele Roehm, Alma Spady, Dwayne Wil- kins, and Bonny Wilson, will become full-fledge seniors next year and will hopefully graduate with the rest of the Class of '80.

The sophomore class consists of eleven men and nine women. Before one can say anything about these students who are halfway through high school, one may have to define the word sophomores. Webster's defines it as one who is self-assured and opinionated, although some- times immature.” Well, these hard — working group of pupils are anything but immature. How- ever, they are indeed self- assured and opinionated, (continued on page 27.)

Longing for that driver’s license (continued from page 25.) This class, the Class of '81, will be the first to graduate with hav- ing to first pass a Minimum Com- petency Test. As with other tenth graders all over the state of Vir- ginia, these sophomores took the competency tests this fall and many passed. Those that did not receive at least 70% correct on all sections will be able to take the tests again each year until they do pass. Until then ... no passing score, no diploma. One of the biggest events in the life of a sophomore is finally getting that driver’s license he has been dreaming of for many years. After completing the in- class instruction, each student must spend several hours in the driver’s education car observing and driving. After that, it's down- hill all the way, so to speak, until he is bugging his dad for the keys to the car. Photographs not available: Jeffrey Braxton, Selene Brown, Penney Coirin, and Marvin Lee.

The freshmen class of Cape Charles High School is com- posed of eighteen students, most of which are already solving for x and y. But, algebra isn’t their only interest; no, they have many others. Ninth graders take part in football, basketball, and base- ball, as well as most clubs and the band. Although only really beginners in high school, they take all the gusto they can out of everything (well, almost every- thing!). (continued on page 31.) FRESHMEN: FRESHMEN; r-r r-r i i ii n • below.

Find French easy” French, the only foreign lan- guage offered at Cape Charles, was described by many fresh- men as “easy” and “fun.” This was their first year of being expo- sed to any other language besides English and it seems that they enjoyed studying French. The freshman class took in April the competency tests that were administered to the sopho- mores last fall. The results from those tests will be used in the fol- lowing years to help build up their deficiencies' that all eighteen will hopefully graduate together in 1982.

Eighth graders change classes for first time. . . The eighth grade marks a new beginning. It is a transition from the elementary grades to high school. This year is the first that they have changed classes; hav- ing a different teacher for each subject taken is quite a jump from having to look at the same face all day. These students have taken to high school life like a fish to water, with a whole new ocean in which to swim. Eligibility for membership in several clubs has been taken advantage of by many of these budding geniuses. Eighth grad- ers became members of the Stu- dent Cooperative Association, the Future Homemakers of America, the Photography Club, and the Yearbook Staff as well as junior varsity basketball and the band.

Miss Betty Nye was the home- room teacher for the eighth grade this year. As one eighth grader put it, “she (Miss Nye) should have a certificate of endurance for putting up with the eighth grade.

In the beginning it was hot. You could roast a duck. There have been spitball fights and one day everybody had rub- berbands and Miss Kramer caught us and took them away. Almost everybody has been to the office. In the winter it got cold. They came out-with this new stuff called Pop Rocks” and every- body brought them to school and ate them during class, but Miss Kramer caught you because thy popped. Then we had this kind of book report and to get an A you had to read 800 pages. Not very many people got an A.

She was pretty nice. We had to get to know her. Now we know her. We’ve had fun this year. One time our class had this thing about rubber bands. They were flying everywhere. So Miss Kramer stopped class and checked everyone for rubber bands. People had rubber bands on their ankles and. wrists. Another time when we had pea- nuts as a part of our lunch, some people threw them at each other. Miss Kramer had to get peanuts from some people. After she checked them, the trash can was full, almost. It really had a lot of peanuts in it. When our class did our float for homecoming, we had fun. Our theme was “Fantasy Island.” Jeff Con- row was Mr. Roarke, Jackie Bailey was Tatoo. When we painted the trees, we also painted the mobile unit. Even though we didn’t win, we had fun. At Christmas time, the band students in our class played our instruments at the assemblies we had. Bill Smith directed us. It has been fun this year and I think we've learned alot. Once we were playing a spelling game, we were so loud that a student from the school building had to come over and tell us that we were too loud!

Then we got changed around. Then we got settled and had to make rules. In October we had a Halloween play. It had spiders, bats, pumpkins, ghosts, monsters, and a witch. On November 3 we had a homecoming game. It was the Indians ver- sus the Ponies. We lost. At half time we had a parade. We had a home- coming King and Queen. The king was Mark Spencer and the queen was Laurie Mitchell. They are two nice people. They rode a nice float. On December 10 Miss Taylor said we could go to the Nutcracker. All but one person went out of the fourth grade. Then it was vacation time. But before vacation time we had a Christ- mas party. It was fun. We made Christmas ornaments and a pinata. It was full of candy. When we got back a lot of people got sick with colds and flu.

We learned new songs. My favorite song is Under the Spreading Chestnut Tree.” We did a mural. It was of the twelve days of Christmas. We strung popcorn and decorated egg shells. We had pumpkins and changed them them into Jack-o-lanterns. We only had five pumpkins. We had a Christmas party and Mr. Smaw, Miss Nye, Miss Irvin, Mr. Sweet, Mrs. Pulliam, Mr. Joynes, Miss Krepps, and Mrs. Rea came. Mr. Sweet tried to kiss Miss Irvin. We saw the Nutcracker Suite. We made turkeys out of leaves. We went pumpkin caroling. It was very fun. Our class did a dance on the school Gong Show.” We did a bulletin board of Winter Wonderland.

GIRLS WIN FIRST A Spark of victory for an ever- deserving team Girls’ Basketball at Cape Charles used to be a joke, but not any more. This year our girls’ basketball team won its first game in over ten years. Much of the team’s success must be given to Cissy Perry and Gail Elliott. Cissy and Gail were both All-District selections. Other team starters were Greta Elliott, Michele Roehm, Lori Lemon. GIRLS GIRLS GIRLS j j ... Spirit is raised more at games..

If it were not for the generosity of those who con- tribute, chances are a yearbook would be an impossibility. Every cent that is solicited goes directly to the payment for publication of the book; without these contrib- utions the ARROW '79 would be nonexistent. This year our advertisement campaign began in August. The entire Eastern Shore was can- vassed. as well as many corpora- tions from other areas. For nearly four months business were visited and letters were written asking for advertisement in the ARROW '79. We are very pleased with the results.

It is very seldom when one finds such a person who was always more than willing to share his time with his school, church, and community. Tony always seemed to get along with everyone and strived for the best in life. Tony is gone now, but he will always be remembered in our hearts. 125 acknowledgement On behalf of the Cape Charles Yearbook Staff, I would like to express our appreciation to the fol- lowing: Mr. J. J. (Jan) Neville, for obtaining a NASA negative which helped make our theme possible. Mr. Bill Sterling, who supplied some sports pictures. Our many contributors who helped finance our yearbook. The many people who helped collect advertisements, sell raffle tickets, help in our potato-selling campaign and in the daily sales of Lance products. A special thanks to Mr. and Mrs. Charles D. Tankard, for letting us sell their potatoes in order to help the staff finance our book. Patricia Rae Bull Business Manager ARROW '79 CLOSE ENCOUNTERS OF from the editor As editor-in-chief of the ARROW '79,1 would like to thank those few people who gave me the most help in putting your yearbook together. I also feel it is my duty to let everyone know what went into the making of the ARROW '79. The majority of my thanks goes very sincerely to you, Patricia, my assistant editor and business man- ager. There could be a no more loyal and dedicated co-worker as you. Thank you for the help, support, and the massage. I wish you much luckas editor-in- chief of the ARROWior next year. You will certainly need it. Eddie, to you, my right hand man and sports edi- tor, there is little I can say. Your interest and enthusi- asm in making the ARROW '79, especially its sports section, a number one yearbook kept me going at times when I thought the book would never be com- pleted. I can only express my thanks with these two words: Bim Bim! To Laurie, Greta, and Lionel, three more of my hard-working editors, I thank you for always being there when I needed you. You volunteered your time when you could have been doing countless other things. I really appreciate all the help you gave me before and'throughout the school year with the ARROW '79. My advisor, Denver Kidner, deserves a thanks not only from me, but from all who purchased a copy of this yearbook. I thank you for coming up with our theme this year, “Close Encounters of Cape Charles High School. Barbara, you, my fellow shutterbug and photogra- phy editor, deserve a special thanks for helping me take the over nine hundred photos pictured in the ARROW '79. And finally I would like to thank three very special people (you know who you are) whose constant push saved my sanity from being totally destroyed. Bill Smith Editor-In-Chief ARROW '79 CAPE CHARLES HIGH SCHOOL advisor’s note Denver L. Kidner, Jr. Advisor ARROW '79 127 The ARROW lor 1978-79 is now in your hands. As the advi- sor, I trust you will enjoy it and appreciate the many hours of hard and diligent work which have gone into its composition. Hopefully you will derive many hours of pleasure from your yearbook. As the years pass and you grow older and wiser, this book will let you relive many of the good times you had while attending Cape Charles High School. And so we must leave the strange beings that inhabit Cape Charles High School. . . Some will leave with smiles of joy, others with tears of sadness But, hopefully, we will all return someday, somewhere in this vast universe, to be again together once more. . . fr. x • • • , . . sjj; a .«fe. ••• • •- ',;, 5� . 2 W V 'X i. s • � .- vv. ■+'. •K v- v 1 Mwf ri. % $ S ir f wj ■v Wi
