Dedication (Above) Dr. Gibson inspects some work that he has typed on the computer. (Below) A yearbook photographer catches Dr. Gibson by surprise. (Right) At a school activity, you'll always find Dr. Gibson. In every man’s lifetime there comes a moment when he feels the need to change and begin to move toward new and different horizons. Dr. Gibson, our respected principal, has felt this desire, and is leaving Clover Hill High School in pur- suit of new opportunities. Dr. Gibson first arrived at Clover Hill in 1974, two years after its opening. Since that time, he has shown his love for the school and respect for its students by attending numerous sporting events and school related activities. As well as cheering on the Cavaliers in football, basketball, and other sports, Dr. Gibson was a chief factor in Clover Hill’s ad- mittance as an AA school in the Virginia High School League, and even up to this date he remains a member of the Ex- ecutive Committee. Throughout his life, Dr. Gibson has attended various schools in preparation for a career in education. His many years in area colleges such as the University of Virginia, the University of Richmond, and the College of William and Mary have given him a firm basis for his leadership and faithful guidance of Clover Hill High School. His commitment to education is evident in the many improvements to Clover Hill in the past eleven years and in his efforts to make life at Clover Hill an enriching experience for students and faculty. The standards and quality of education that have evolved during his administration are a source of great pride for all of us. For this WE THANK YOU, DR. GIBSON, and, in apprecia- tion, DEDICATE to you THE 1984-85 DUCEMUS.

bd i we EA Ps e a 4 Clover Hill High School, a member of the Virginia High School league, has exper- ienced both the ‘‘thrill of vic- tory and the agony of defeat’’ through our athletics. In the school year of 1984-85, spec- tators felt both enjoyment and pain. During the year students, parents, and faculty members celebrated with the victories of the powerful and successful teams and felt for those that were persistent but unlucky. Clover Hill High School of- fers a varied athletics program to suit everyone’s needs. There are both junior varsity and varsity teams for both boys and girls. To the most outstanding athletes a letter is given to recognize their ability and hard work. Above all spectators and players alike need to remember that the purpose of athletic teams is to promote physical, mental, moral, social and emotional well-being for the players through competition. It is also to be noted, that success or defeat is in itself of little importance.
