Anoth- er example of the strict discipline was the school regulation which stated: Students shall at no time converse in passing in or out of the building. As for the matter of hooky, these statistics speak for themselves: For the month of April, l879, there were 680 half-day absences. Of these 199 were unexcused. Perhaps the students had spring fever! There weren't such things as hot rods parked around the school grounds in I879. Most students walked to school. On the way, they amused them- selves - according to one high school girl ofthe '80s - by iumping back and forth across the ir- rigation ditches which supplied water for the young shade trees. During recess the girls walked up and down the gravel sidewalk in front of the little school and planned their good times. You are probably wondering what sort of good times they had. The cool cats of those days didn't do the Bunny Hop nor did they iitterbug to the latest records on Friday nights. At the dances, lwhich were attended by the entire familyl, the popular steps included the waltz and the schottischel Another social activity which the high school students enioyed was a pic- nic supper in Stratton Park, where open air band concerts were held during the summer. Even though extensive extra-curricular activities such as sports and various types of clubs didn't come into exist- ence until later, we fancy that the high school stu- dents enioyed themselves iust as much then as we do today, for fun-loving teenagers don't change much throughout the years. Colorado Springs High School - from the time of its first graduates in l879, down through the years to the present 4 has certainly played a vital role in the growth of our community. Through its doors thousands of young men and women have stepped out into lite well prepared to become fu- ture leaders in the Pikes Peak region. As we cele- brate the seventy-fifth anniversary of our first grad- uating class, we look to the future with the hope that the progress of Colorado Springs High School dur- ing the next seventy-five years will match that of the past. x YV --1--'E ' - --rf?-jf'-'QQ 1 pf ,'1'::',f1 it ., - - C i f ':f2i'i 'i T C ,Q 1 5 - 45.11 , .

Inscribed by the class of i897 on the occasion of the 50th anniversary of its graduation. Even before this bell, which was hung in l893, it seems that there was another bell - in the first school building. Records show that a bell was bought and put in place in the stone school house in March, 1878. The price paid for the bell was 5690, Even though no bell hangs in our present school, we have the bell in the patio to remind us of the traditions which have been built up throughout the years at Colorado Springs High School. fl .
