Junior Class Officers: Debbie Holmon, president: Greg Watkins, vice president, Julie Collins. Rep, at large; Claudia Dean, secretary. New roads of opportunities and experiences opened for juniors at CHS. Being a junior meant lounge privileges, the concessions stand, and Prom. It meant being an upperclass member, almost a senior. It also meant American History, Chemistry, and English III. American History projects were unique to the junior year. As one project, eighteen juniors and three faculty members attempted to experience the Great Depression first-hand. They built a Hooverville of cardboard boxes, but were driven home after one night in the worst of our spring storms. Senior rings were highlights of junior year, although the cost of the rings seemed very high. Rings signified the juniors' increasing maturity and their nearness to their senior year.
