West Carrollton Senior High School Piratan • 1981 Setting Sail As the dawn breaks over the horizon with the sun decorating the day, we stand on the dock preparing to begin our journey. With boldness and courage as our companions and the wind as a friend at our backs, we board ship, chart our course, setting sail on our adventure across the high seas. Each of us in our own personal way will captain the quest sailing toward the sunset. Our mark will be realized by others; our growth will be felt by ourselves. Sometimes the waves are rough and rocky; other times the ocean is smooth tranquil and calm. Sometimes the way is touched with tears and tragedy; other times the way is filled with smiles and serenity. Always along the way, we are filled with dreams and promises, and shining moments are our destiny. The day will come when we'll reach our destination, we'll dock, leave the ship, and take one more look back. We'll kiss today goodbye, point ourselves toward tomorrow, and graduate to a beginning, a new odyssey, awaiting our new adventure. The day will arrive when we'll take to the ocean again, refreshed and renewed with a firm sense of courage and spirit, well hoist anchor and push off, parting company with the shore, and continue setting sail over again. Let us begin . . .

Since busing served no educational purpose, it was the primary item to be cut from the school program so that academic programs could be maintained. The black ribbons which were tied around the mirrors of the buses symbolized the end of high school busing.

This time it's yes, was the slogan advertised in the West Carrollton community to pass the two-year levy. The operating levy became vital after the closing of Frigidaire. The shutdown resulted in the loss of more than one million dollars in tax revenues. W.C. students are shown in the school parking lot protesting the levy failure by conducting a strike. Students hoped that the strike would encourage the community to vote yes on the March ballot.

The West Rides Our Way The country-western boom that was sweeping the country made its way to West Carrollton Senior High in the early 1980's. Seeing someone wearing a cowboy hat wasn't unusual. The cowboy hats came in all shapes, sizes, colors, and not one had the same feather on it. The cowboy boots became a popular accessory with the hats. Some boots even had spurs to go with them. This western boom brought country music back. West Carrollton brought all their cowboys together for a day by making a western day” part of spirit week. Pic. 1: Kevin Clay mad as a bull!

In fact, the three lounges are a very important part of WCHS. Not only are they the center of social life, but they also serve as a place to study and a place to relax.

Every student experiences some kind of close encounter whether it be talking to a friend or hanging around the lounge. Most encounters happen in the parking lot, during lunch time, between classes, and after school. Close encounters make up much of the fun time in school. They add a sort of pleasant relief to the sometimes drab and dull days. For some students (not many, of course), the close encounters experienced here are the main reason for attendance. As we all know, school can't always be fun and games.

Perfected drills, well executed dancing, and exciting music make for attention-getting entertainment between halves of the game. In truth, the band is more than that. Sweat and hard work go into bringing about a good show. Many long hours are involved from band camp in August to three hour rehearsals in the evenings. There are many moments of madness, utter confusion, struggling to memorize music, rushing to meet reporting times, and just pure exhaustion. One thing makes it all worthwhile-the love of a family. For the band truly is a family.

The 1980 Pirate football team had a surprisingly successful season this year finishing with a record of 8 wins and 2 losses. The Pirates also finished second in the Miami Central Conference. West Carrollton had four players named to the first team, Miami Central Conference, and five players named to the second team. Two players were named to the first team, All-Greater Dayton, and one player to the second team. Four players received special mention. Senior quarterback Jeff McGuire was named to the second team list All-State. Firt year head coach Bill Gaines had these comments: This year was the first year as a coach that my team has ever won eight games. The seniors were the best group I have ever coached. They showed a tremendous amount of pride when the sportswriters and even their own parents were doubtful, but the seniors had enough heart to prove the non-believers wrong. This was the best homecoming a coach could ask for. HOME 0 QTR.

Because of the loss of field hockey teams in the league, the MCC dropped field hockey as a league sport; thus, the girls could not receive any points in the MCC. The girls faced a tough schedule, playing teams such as Fairmont West, state champs, 1979, and Fairmont East, state champs, 1980. The girls continued to battle throughout the year, defeating Fairborn Baker and Vandalia-Butler in scrimmages and tying Northridge and Vandalia-Butler during the season. The Lady Pirates ended their season with a 0-6-2 record. Receiving Most Valuable Offensive Player was Betty Knedler.

With this last page, a small part of each of us pulls into port and docks, while another larger part climbs aboard a new ship ready to set sail. We'll each captain our own ship, chart our own course, and sail off, searching for tomorrow. Sketched in the sails will be that tomorrow; mirrored reflections in the water will be these yesterdays ... childhood companions, treasured friends, and dreams somewhere over the rainbow. On this journey, the prayer for each captain will be for red sunsets at night, peaceful waves, and a gentle wind to carry us to far-away shores. Sometimes the sea will slow the ship; we'll lay anchor and float on the water in quiet solitude. Memories will once again crystallize to a time we loved, glistening through these pages. As the moon begins to climb in the sky, we'll set sail again to strive, to seek, to find, and never to waver until we've reached our destiny, realized our vision, and found that place for each of us, called home. Come, come sail away ... -Mr. McCollum 240
