g from We owhere Riding down the black top road on a crisp December morning in 1964, the first graduating class of Coppell arrived at their new cam- pus. The first sight was a small, guishable from wealthier students torn and faded Jeans and T shirts characterize someone Sty e. And quietly, almost inpercepti- gravel parking lot with a few cars belonging mostly to teachers. I remember coming into the parking lot and seeing only about two students' cars, the rest be- longed to teachers, said Mrs. Shir- ley Harwell, school secretary for 20 years. In the foyer the smell of newness pervaded the air. It was 8:00, and a few kids had gathered in the halls, but by this time most were in classrooms involved in extra-cur- ricular activities. Glancing around the rooms, one noticed a great dis- tinction between rich and poor. If somebody were poor, you could tell because his white T-shirt was all dirty and grungy, and his jeans were tattered and old, but if someone was better off, his jeans and shirt were new, clean-look- ing, said Mr. Wheelice Wilson, drama teacher and the valedictori- an of the first graduating class of CHS. Twenty-four years later, the black topped road is worn and bumpy. The main hall is packed with students. A musty old smell has replaced the aroma of newness from that opening day in 1964. Now the poor are hardly distin- 2 opening bly, the little-knowm country school has transformed itself into a school known around the state for academic and extra-curricular ex- cellence. Though many changes have oc- curred at CHS between 1964 and 1987, one thing has remained the same. With a student body of over 500, compared to 102 of 24 years ago, there's still that sense of a family atmosphere. When I first walked in, I didn't think I would like it because it was so small, but Coppell has turned out to be a very pleasant place to go to school, commented junior Robyn Brinkman, who transferred from a 5-A high school. We get more attention from teachers here, and the students have been really polite and nice to me. I guess that was prejudgmental of me. Emerging almost FROM CUT OF NOWHERE, Coppell High School has come to be respected and admired for its friendly people and high standards. CAPTURED.
