Students get back into swing Three months passed quickly for the stu- dents in New Castle. No longer were they allowed to be lazy and sleep in late. It was time once again for school. For some students, this meant a new beginning in their high school careers, but to seniors, it was their farewell year. Over 1,100 students graced the halls of New Castle Chrysler High School and with the rep- utation that the school presented, students V could be guaranteed a well-rounded educa- tion full of much scholastic and extra-curricu- lar involvement. Some students continued their learning outside of school. Many students took after- school jobs to help earn spending money for themselves. Although this sometimes proved tough, students still managed to keep up their grades and become involved in the many ac- tivities offered at Chrysler High. School spirit ranked high among the stu- dents during spirit week. Each displayed his Trojan pride in different ways whether it was pep rallies or dressing up on 50 ' s day. This added touch of green displayed to the school as well as the community that New Castle Chrysler High School students had what it took to be a top-ranked school in a small town atmosphere. . • NIGHT COURT Sophomore Steve Pen- rose and senior Brian Judy enjoy a night of fun and frolic during an overnight stay on the tennis courts.

Students master school routine With summer vacation over, many stu- dents predicted that their fun was over, but to others, the fun was just beginning. Along with the fun came many changes in both the students and faculty. Seven new teachers joined the ranks of the NCCHS teaching staff. The English Dept. added teacher Rhonda Kuhn and Fay Smith. The Math Science Dept. added Rick Beymer and Rebecca Hooper. Diane Wilhelm joined the Art Dept., and Gary Brown helped teach drivers education and physical education. Attendance policies were set up to pro- mote better student attendance. Many stu- dents took to the policy for various reasons. Some students received prizes for perfect attendance. Homeroom teachers awarded cookies or donuts at the end of each week to those students with perfect attendance for the week. Another change came with the addition of homerooms. Ten minutes were set up after second hour for homeroom. This en- abled the school to get an accurate attend- ance rate, and it also gave them a chance to gather the students together for the morn- ing announcements. Prizes for attendance boosted the spirit of NCCHS students. Students took pride in their good attendance by wearing Posi- tude Dude t-shirts created by English teacher Steve Dicken. Each student at NCCHS gave an added meaning to the definition of what it meant to be a Trojan. In their spirit and pride, they displayed to others what it meant to possess a touch of green.
