1980 brought in more than a new decade, it brought in a student body that was more expressive in pride than any other in the history of the school. Whether it was in academics, mental or physical competition, in performances, musical or oratoryg McCallum Knights showed the Emblems of our Pride. The meaning of pride is the pleasure or satisfaction resulting from an achievement or possession. Therefore our pride was not just in the name McCallum Knights, it was in everything that we did. It was being a member of the band, Student Council, a cheerleader, or one ofthe 1 ,563 students enrolled. It was being a soloist or an orator, playing as a duet or working as a duo, or being a part of a team or an organization. As drummers Gary Frock, senior: and John Cherico, juniorg showed more than determination as they played for the McCallum-Travis football pep rally. They along with Scott Page, freshman, fired up the football team in their 13-12 victory over the Travis Rebels, the rivals south of the river. As a part ol the Student Council, sophomores Kelly Cates and Stephanie Vassallo not only attended Student Council meetings on Wednesday momings, they helped with the decorating of school cafeteria forthe Homecoming dance held on October 27. 5 htm Ltr Lx 2 Opening

English, math, science, history, health and physical education were considered as requirements for graduation plus 27 elective credits. Elective classes ranged from home economics to drafting, office education to drama. McCallum had something to offer to all the interests ot the students.
