Rebel Pride We, the staff of the 1980-1981 Rebel leave with you, in this book, the memories of unforgetable activities and agonizing losses, but most of all with those memories of those numerous success at RHS. Though relatively small in number, each of us is big in pride when it comes to our school. We have survived an isolated location, and the lack of some of the recognition we deserve from the rest of this area only to come back stronger and more determined than ever before. Rebels take pride readily in themselves. We are all proud to admit this! We are proud of our individual accomplishments, the continuous activity and success which is a part of many of our clubs and organizations, recent triumphs in the area of sports for our athletic teams, pride in community service, and ultimately pride in our own school. Yes, Rebel Pride flourishes at RHS! All Rebels have at least one reason, and most likely have many more to hold their heads high and look forward with much anticipation to all the future proud years for Rockbridge High School and it’s students. Yes, oh yes, Rebels We Are!!! 3 Glo : ioe Baths 4 The Boy Scouts must be on sale again. Tim Whitesell (center) RHS ’81 representative to Governor's School.

Homecoming 1980 This year's Homecoming was a real, old-fashioned display of that good old Rebel Spirit. With the parade of numerous, festive floats and automobiles, Homecoming 1980 was the most successful and spectacular extravaganza in years. The highlight of the fall was attended by many true Rebel backers of the community and was enjoyed by all. A “spirit line” was formed by the Rebel cheerleaders and loyal fans to pep their football team to their first victory of 1980. As the band played “Victors”, the mighty Rebels took the field in quest of taking the traditional Homecoming game this year against the Bath County Chargers. The five Princesses for Homecoming 1980 were; Sandi Jarvis, escorted by Mike Wilmore; Berta Hart, escorted by Jimmy Clark; Sherri Steele, escorted by Doug Mayo; and Kim McCray, escorted by Scott Cullen. Terry Staton was chosen by the student body to be the Homecoming Queen. Her proud escort was Jimmy Clemmer. To cap the excitement of these activities at halftime, the Rebels were victors of the game, sending Bath County home in disgrace. As a result, the pride and spirit of RHS soared, and Homecoming 1980 was a complete success. Gossiping at a time like this! 6 Homecoming Another day, another dollar This has been a LONG day!!
