A New Decade The 1980's bring with it a lot of problems; even though they have just begun. Iran, Afgha- nistan, and inflation are problems that we all are concerned about, but at CHS we also have problems. They are not as important, but to us they are. Discipline, student indifference, and academic problems are just a few; but through evaluation, special activities, and classes we are solving these problems and looking for- ward to the new decade.

Starting Anew Every school year brings something new to each student and to the school. New friendships ... new classes ... a new sign out front ... new teacher and even new fads such as shirts with button down collars. All of these and much more are indicators of the changes that each year brings; but what do these things mean to us and CHS? It means that we must all in a sense start each year anew. We must put aside some of the past and work even harder, so that not only can each student be a success, but CHS as well. TOP: The greenhouse has added not only to the size, but also to the curriculum at CHS. RIGHT: Mr. Meinhard looks out of his window to see who is disturbing the start of his sixth period class.
