C WOS period 7 class' version of Slaughter House Five. Mr Starkey listens to his students solve Queen Anne and King George dilemma. 142 - Language Arts . . Keeps With The Times Moving Forward All The Time The Language Arts department has made changes this year, such as a new department chairman, Mrs. Foreman. Mrs. Chiles informed Mrs. Foreman is a very positive person who has been very influential in creating a harmonious at- mosphere with lots of cooperation be- tween teachers in the department. One of the two new teachers in the department this year was Mr. Sandoval, who is also the new Newspaper sponsor. In the past, he has taught ninth grade language arts, journalism and sponsored another newspaper. He said, I enjoy teaching, especially at the high school level. I enjoy being with young people and introducing them to the different kinds of knowledge this world has to offer. Mrs. Hurelle also shared in the changes with her transition into the world of yearbook productions. She was quoted with an energetic, Holy Cow! I had no clue it would be this much work! Mrs. Starkey, who has been here since the school opened, said, The love for children and humor are important quali- ties for a teacher to have. Every kid counts! The Language Arts department had also felt the sophomores Big Chief real- ly helped the students this year, as did the students. The tenth grade Big Chiefs gave the sophomores a chance to know themselves a little better and their writing ability, said Rich Acker. All in all, the department has done an exceptional job this year on its move forward.

Learning About The a t Uplifting Students Mind Many different events went on in the Social Studies Department. In Mr. Black's class of Ancient Egypt they had a class on mumification while studying King Tut. Volunteers went through a ceremony using candles and Egyptian music. I asked Rich Clements what he thought about it and he replied, I thought it was real cool and Mr. Black knows what he teaches and it made it look like the real thing. Also a constitutional celebration was held on September 15th. Mrs. Gunther was in charge of this special event. That day students dressed up in red, white, and blue for spirit day and at 7:00 stu- dents and faculty gathered at the front of the school around the flag pole. The whole musical department performed. A State Representative came for the raising of the flag. Many different things were donated for the time capsule to be opened 25 years from now. I asked Mrs. Gunther what she thought about the ceremony she said, It was a super event. The whole student body participated a whole lot too and we had a huge turn out of items for the time capsule. With the Ramses exhibit going on the library had a small exhibit of their own. The library also put together exhibits on the Denver past this year. Mr, Peraulr continuously works with his students. Mrs. Gunther fools her class as a depression bum. 144 M ssfub
