6fSpirit In the hearts of students, CHS remain 14K What would life at Chaparral have been like if there had been no school spirit? A question like this seems preposterous because spirit was something the Fire- birds had plenty of. Anyone from the student body to the faculty members who participated ' school-related activities outside the classroom showed school spir- it. A show of school spirit con- firmed the fact that Chaparral had been and continued to be an effective school a school dedi- cated to staying gold. But CHS was much more than red and gold. Although the school colors were seen everywhere ev- eryday Firebird fever represented a prevailing attitude. You couldn t always see it but you sure could feel it. We were good and we knew it' and we wanted every- one else to know it too. Our goal was the same . . . to keep Chapar- ral golden . . . the Best! -Juan Epstein ,. mr --fi 'aw .Q XEW-rfz 512, . rw w'?3'.5,,,l f7f2'5rliiI ? tiki' . -J. ul

T DE Being a part of Chaparral didn't always mean sitting in classrooms and doing homework all night long. Sometimes we had good times really good times . . . times we would remember forever. Filled with emotion, our teenage years in high school would be gold- en in our memories. For instance, remember the summer camps? Re- member the dances, the games, the pep assemblies, and the river rides? We loved them, and we loved to have fun. And what about Homecoming? Every year it seemed to be better than the year before. The week be- fore the game was one of excitement and anticipation - an attitude that seemed to carry over for the rest of the year. Something else that lasted all year was our interest in style. We had to have style. The clothes we wore, the cars we drove, the con- certs we saw, the news we heard on the radio, were all part of our every- day lives. We were usually more concerned with who was coming to town on tour, however, than we were about who was going to war. Nevertheless, with the start of the new year came the Fiesta Bowl fol- lowed soon after by the Parada del Sol. Everything went along on schedule, and we were a part of it. But nothing would have been the same without friends. We had to have friends. We learned about each other, ourselves, and about life in general. We were trying to grow up. But, it wasn't easy, especially since we sus- pected from the start that the years at Chaparral would be ranked up there among the best years of our lives. And they were and we were , . . all pure gold. T We'll always remember the good times at Chaparral High Making a monkey out of himself on Hal- loween is senior Jason McKinney. Student L1f8f5 LIFE
