A Time to A Time Keep Silent; to Speak It is the year of involvement. An oppor- tune time to speak out. For some it in- volves the active participation of cheering or competitive sports. To others it is per- fection in a class experiment, but to all of us it is a time to find ourselves. A time to challenge and a time to accept. The mo- ment has come in our lives to determine when to join in a crowd and when to stand alone. Folk singing is a means of communicating with others. 4 Opening Varsity football players gather around Coach Davis in a moment of silence before the kickoff. Senior classes express their views through moviemaking.

To Everything There Is a Qeason and a Time to Every Purpose Under the Heavens Victory, defeat, joy and pain are all a part of life at Centennial. It is getting an ‘A’ in the roughest math course in the semester, a winning touchdown, or getting a glimpse of that very special someone. Yet we de- pend on our friends to provide something we deeply need, and we become more aware of the needs in others. But mostly it is a time when we can discover ourselves, sort out our values, and evaluate life. It is a time to know just where we are going and where we have already been. Centennial is open both day and night for the broadening of students’ interests. Project courtyard becomes a reality after a summer of dedicated interest by all. Open lunch provides new responsibilities and freedom for students.

A Time to Dance, Love and Cry We all come to learn, but we gain more than mere knowledge. We have acquired an ability to share emotions. A time to love and a time to cry. But the least likely overlooked emotion of all is that of self- expression; a time to dance. These three emotions walk hand in hand. Homecom- ing, Vice-Versa and Prom are the three big dances of the year! And when you’re in attendance with that special someone, it becomes that much more important. After a tense football game, students find time to unwind their emotions. Getting together with friends is one way to spend an enjoyable evening. Quiet moments are easily found at Centennial when you're with the one you love. Opening 5
