One highlight of the '87-88 pep rallies was the pie-eating contest the coaches voluntarily entered. Coach Wilson and Coach Langthorn, new to the district, really proved to be big eaters. We had always known Coach Greever and Coach May had big appetites! Y Ll DECIDE Owe 1-3 .Qmurlfh 4-16 fgyprgflig I 7-26 CAM 27-66 gm 67- 96 C6b4!Awdwm 97-122 Admmewm 123-144 3

After the rules and guidelines were addressed on the first day of class, l2 seniors remained. As yearbook staff members, our job was to record the events, actions, and reactions of the year. We have triedgtopcapture the '87-88 school year in a positive and different way. Weidecided to change the traditional layout of the yearbook and now it will be up to you to decide if our approach was a SUCCCSS. The school year really began for many of the students before registration. It beganjffor the cheerleaders in June when they attended camp, and for the football and volleyball teams when they began pre- season workoutsQ An organized registration for high school students was initiated by the new high school principal, Mr. Randy Cobb and our new counselor, Mrs.. Linda Lynch. Even though there were some changes that had to be made, the '87-88 school year began with ease. CHEERLEADERS posed with Chico's new Dragon Mascot, Tammy Buckner. Tammy, a senior this year, was chosen by the entire student body to represent Chico as the mascot. 4 STUDENT BODY seemed very attentive to the activities of this pep rally. Pep schedule was changed to 2:45 this year instead of 2:30. if

jw ' TEAMS' With future graduation on the minds of all juniors, they prepared to take the TEAMS exam. Students in all odd grades must take this assessment instrument. Students at the Exit Level CGrade 111 who fail to demonstrate mastery of mathematics and English language arts, will not be eligible to receive their diplomas upon completion of their senior year. They are given three additional chances to pass if they are unsuccessful the first time. Knowing this, the juniors marched into the library like soldiers. Each student had their own opinion of this instrument, but only facial expressions and groans were seen and heard. Mrs. Linda Lynch, Chico I.S.D. Counselor, conducted the test and watched as the anxious juniors began this very important task. In August, 1981, Mrs. Lynch began working at Chico through the auspices of the Education Service Center, Region XI, in Fort Worth. She also worked for the other small schools in Wise County CAlvord, Slidell, Paradise, and Boydj. Gradually, she reduced the number of schools to one. 1 She began working at Chico on a full time basis in August, 1987. Her duties include administrative assistant, counselor, teacher ap- praiser, curriculum director and accreditation specialist. Mrs. Lynch stated her main goal was to help the juniors and seniors to prepare for graduation, college, and the world of workf' Kathy Redwine didn't seem to be enjoying herself. Russell Hornsbyis face illustrated con- cern of most juniors. Casey Hamner looked a bit stunned. 4 w-a,,,,Ww
