We begin the 1983-84 school year no longer anticipating the far-off possibilities of technological and scien- tific advances, robotics and personal computers, two-way television, satellite communications, and space travel. We no longer anticipate these adventures of the future, because the future is now. We are already utilizing new educa- tional technology to instruct students in a fashion which enhances their growth and knowledge. And we will continue to lead students through this era full of ex- citing possibilities, seeking the best in- structional advantages for them today, and in the future. For as we look around us, we are once again reminded that the future is now. Dr. Ed L. West, Superintendent of Schools The future is now The outstanding record of ac- complishment and tradition of educa- tional leadership and community ser- vice of our students speaks for itself. The academic excellence of Churchill High School is reflected in the graduating class last year of 742 seniors . . . 75'Z7 are attending college this year. Churchill has built an outstanding athletic program for both men and women and has established a record to be envied. Churchill has numerous other co-curricular activities and organizations that rank high in state and national competition. Churchill strives to provide students with opportunity to develop fully and to meet their needs for educational growth. To do this the school must con- tinually build, change, and grow. Some of the ways that this is happening this year is by the addition of a computer math lab to expand our capabilities of offering computer math instruction and to provide computer assisted instruc- tion. This year we are also expanding our vocational program to offer one hour classes for sophomores in Mer- chandising through our distributive education program. There has been an expansion of our athletic program to in- clude competitive soccer. We are proud of Winston Churchill High School. We hope the experiences of all the students in our community as they work toward graduation help them to learn, develop, and grow as individuals. Mr. Elton Churchill, Principal

The backbone of the school There are so many positive things happening at Churchill, that naming a highlight is difficult. Perhaps symbolic of all the outstanding accomplishments was the national recognition of Chur- chill as an Exemplary School by the US Department of Education. The oppor- tunity to work with students, teachers, and parents who are interested in developing and maintaining a learning experience in high school that is of op- timum benefit to all has been a satisfy- ing experience for me. I've been privileged to work in a number of fine schools but the level of involvement and participation of students, parents, teachers, and community at Churchill, and the sense of pride in the school, is unique.
