CHS Classes Find Unity in Rivalry CHS students spent most of their time in groups and classrooms roughly defined by grade levels. Although many classes were mixed with students of different grades, others were limited. Freshmen took Enlgish I, sophomores English II, juniors American History, and seniors - the brave ones -English IV. Freshmen were the newcomers, to be teased and directed in the halls. Sophomores were comfortable in the building and the classroom. Juniors were busy raising money, and seniors were dedicated to avoiding work. Rivalry existed among the classes, and was most evident during Spirit Week and in cheering Battle Cry at pep assemblies. For Spirit Week, each class tried to outdo the others in decorating a floor and showing pride in the Tigers. They kept their themes secret and refused to allow members of other classes on their floors. In Battle Cry each class tried tp out-shout the others to cheer the Tigers to victory. Each CHS student went out of his way to show pride in his class. But class-pride was school pride, after all. CHS students drew together to represent their school during North Central evaluation, Homecoming, and graduation. Their unity was as intense as their rivalry. 30
