OLYMPICSOlym pic Games W atched by PCDS Students

The games of the XXIV Olympiad took place from Sep­tember 17 through October 2, 1988 in Seoul, South Korea. These Olympic Games were the most successful games in history. The host country put on a spectacular show from start to finish. They were able to intermingle traditional Ko­

rean culture with modern technol-

peace and har­mony.

The United States captured a total of ninety-four medals: thirty-six gold, thirty-one sil­ver, and twenty-seven bronze. Some of the most successful American atheletes of the

— games were Greg Louganis in diving, Janet Evans and Matt Biondi in swimming, Jackie Joyner Kerser and Florence

(Flo-Jo) Griffith Joyner in track and field, and Kaich Kircely in men's volleyball. Locally, Ari­zona had fourteen participants in the Olympics, six of whom were medal recipients.

Despite the overwhelming success of the Olympics, the games were marred by contro- versey. Positive drug tests hu­miliated some athletes and stunned the world.

The Olympic Games added excitement to our lives for six­teen days. We hold great admi­ration and respect for all athe­letes who competed, and look ahead to future Olympics. Juan Antonio Sanaranch, President of the International Olympic Committe, summed it up with his comment, "The games of the twenty-fourth Olympiad here in Seoul have been a tre­mendous success."

ELECTIONPCDS Students Get Involved

As the polls closed and the ballots were tallied, a clear winner emerged from the mock election held at PCDS on November 1st. With 93 votes, George Bush defeated Michael Dukakis who re­ceived 44 votes. In the weeks preceeding the election, stu­dents were educated in the process of the election and were given information on the two candidates.

Although PCDS students voted to inaugurate Bush, a survey completed by 91 stu­dents showed Llyod Bentsen the clear choice for a running mate. Many students who filed out the survey felt that Quayle was not a strong run­ning mate and would not do an adequate job if forced to take office. PCDS students

felt that a running mate is im­portant in their decision for president, but they would not base their entire decision on this issue. Kitty Dukakis was favored as first lady, but the students who were surveyed did not feel the first lady was important in their decision. Generally, the students sur­veyed were d issa tisfied w ith b o th c a n d id a te s and felt thatneither one would do a good job in office, Compared to the national election, the mock election made students more aware of what was occuring in government, and it gave stu­dents an opportunity to con­tribute their opinion in an adult manner.

SPIRITStudents Give A Hoot!

How many dress up for Blue and Gold Day?

99%

Small in size but big in spirit - that's PCDS - and twice a year the whole school gathers together on Blue and Gold Day to prove it. Walk­ing into the gym (the site of the prep rally), you can see a crowd of excited students en­thusiastically responding to the cheerleaders or listening

to the jazz band.E v e r y o n e

from the small­est pre-K child to the Headmis­

tress is colorfully decked out in gold and blue. There are students with spikey blue hair, or painted blue and gold faces, striped socks, funny hats, crazy costumes and wildly waving banners and pom-poms. Every class has a spirited contribution to make

which has been carefully re­hearsed.

The cheerleaders spur the crowd on with dazzling dance routines, energetic leaps, bounds and cartwheels, and pep cries invoking a full- throated response from the watching crowd.

But school spirit doesn't end here. PCDS students are great team supporters and ev­eryone is interested in the daily announcements of re­sults. The faculty are often in­volved too. For example, Mr. Bruning and Mr. Cook have attended every home swim meet this year. So Blue and Gold day is not the only part of PCDS's spirit — we've got spirit, yes we do — we've got spirit — How about you?

WEEKENDSAre Made For Fun!

W hat are your favorite weekend TV shows?

Saturday Night, Sports,Mission Impossible

Weekends are a time of recu­peration after a long week of homework, tests and all the other headaches that come with being a student at PCDS. “It's a time to relax and have a good time. I love it," said sophmore Kerr Lordy- gan.

Although weekends are spent in many different ways, all stu­dents agree that it's a necessary

tim e to escape fro m a h e c tic school schedule. To get an idea on how just a few students at our

school spend their weekends, Billy Dumone and Aron Drayer revealed how they spend theirs:

"O ur Saturdays are filled with exciting card playing, sometimes

pictionary and an occasional movie or two. We conclude the evening with group joke telling and pizza and do all of our home­work the following day."

Other popular activities in­clude sleeping late, sports and musical hobbies. "I play guitar ir. a band called 2x4 which is almost as good as Wind of Change," said Gregg Dessen. Some go dancing at Sargeant Pepper's and other students enjoy spending their weekends at the mall or at the movies, but no matter how they spent their time, they were all resting their minds in their own ways. It is clear that weekends, spent anyway possible, will al­ways be an important part of a well-balanced body and mind.

STYLENo Doubt A bout It, It’s Here. . .

Do you think you have an individual style?

Yes - 56% No - 44%

Certain styles and trends can always be found on campus. The typical PCDS student is usually dressed in a casual manner but there are always exceptions to the rule.

One of the most commonly worn articles of clothing is the "college sweatshirt" and other pieces of collegiate clothing in­cluding including sweatpants, shorts and t-shirts. Students dis­play their college of interest or

e v e n t h a t w h ich th e ir parents attend­ed.

A n o t h e r trademark of

the PCDS student is the blue and gold letter jacket. The woollen and leather jacket is decorated with various gold patches indi­

cating that student's sport of choice. (It's also a great chance to show off atheletic achievements.)

Mail-order catalogs are heavily supported am ong students. Shoes from L.L. Bean are popular, as are winter jackets from Lands End. J. Crew supplies students with both ski sweaters and color­ful t-shirts. Students are often seen in store-bought labels such as Gap, Polo, Espirit, and Levi's.

Other students and faculty adopt a more yuppie-ish and preppie style of dress. For men this look includes trench coats, cardigans, ties, and suspenders. Skirts, oxfords, and sweaters are common for women.

A desire to express oneself is often shown in how one dresses. At PCDS this is apparent in the diverse codes of style and dress.

WORK & FUN Z tZ S sThe Student Senate was truly

active this year. Student involve­ment was the number one prior­ity under co-presidents Bill Ram­sey and Travis W right. New, ex­citing events were carefully planned and executed with great enthusiasm.

The used book sale kicked off the new year by raising $750 to support future events. New stu­dents attended a breakfast where they were introduced to the school and it's students. The an­nual Oktoberfest had a few new twists and a volleyball night was added to encourage student uni­ty. During the winter basketball season, the Senate featured such contests as the half court shot. The litter meter and the Corner Beautification Committee (CBC) were formed to clean up the cam­pus.

Overall, the 1988-89 school year was prosperous and eventful for the Student Senate.

For the first time in two years, the yearbook has made its first three deadlines. The organization of the yearbook is great this year and M iko M cGinty is doing a great job at keep­ing things in order.

"T his year, we have a very dedi­cated group of students. Through their hard work and dedication, we have made our first three deadlines, and I am confident that we will com­plete the last two as w ell," said Mrs.

Pecelin, yearbook adviser.W ithout the editors and the hard­

working staff, the yearbook would not be running smoothly and the deadlines never would have been made. Everyone involved with the or­ganization should give themselves a pat on the back for the excellent work they have done this year. W ith such a devoted group of people, there is no doubt in anyone's mind that the last two deadlines will be met with ease.

We have stayed with the old for­mat, and tried to add some of our own personal touches, in­cluding more emphasis on student opinion and input. The writers have done a great job, and the editorial staff was constantly working and try­ing to fulfill all the responsi­bilities of editing, layout, writing editorials and col­umns and the difficult task of trying to meet deadlines. Now that the staff has decid­ed what works, after months of experimenting, we're look­ing forward to next year when we will try to eliminate our errors, and become more pro­fessional while keeping a sense of humor and catering to student interest.

"Daybreaks is PCDS's fine arts journal in which students have an opportunity to share their works with other students and faculty," said Mollie Ander­son, editor of Daybreaks. "This year the emphasis of the Daybreaks staff is two-fold; first, we want to bal­ance the visual and written material to make it a true arts journal, and second, we want to improve the look of the magazine," said Mr. Coon, Daybreaks adviser.

The Daybreaks staff works hard to make sure enough pieces of work are submitted and put in the magazine. "The focus of Daybreaks this year is to receive a wide variety of assorted creative works from the upper school and to stress that Daybreaks is a creative arts journal," said Esther Marion, a staff mem­ber of Daybreaks. "We are waiting for a greater stu­dent response and hope that the contest will motivate this," Marion concluded. The contest Daybreaks de­veloped gives cash awards to the best works submit­ted.

For two years now. Community Service has been one of the largest and most popular clubs at PCDS. Be­gun two years ago by Alissa Brodie- Bodell and Terri Kalloch, the club has flourished from one of talk to one of action. "O ur primary focus has al­ways been the people we are working w ith," says club president Brodie-Bo- dell.

Beginning with only a trip to the Scottsdale Village Square nursing home, club members now work with the mentally and physically handi­capped, abused women and children.

homeless families, and political refu­gees, as well as the elderly. "W e've tried to create a balanced program where there is an activity for every­one," adds Brodie-Bodell. "It's time to end the myth that the only people who do community service are juve­nile delinquents working off crimi­nal sentences."

The Community Service Organiza­tion works not only to help people outside PCDS, but works internally as well. This year the club added a "Low er School A ides" program through which Upper School stu­

dents work on their free periods in the Lower School as teacher assis­tants.

"There were times I wasn't sure if it was all going to be worth it. But," she adds with a smile, "when you see the joy in the face of an elderly man you've just danced with, or the ear-to- ear grin of a Polish refugee after you've given her her only Christmas present, you know it's worth it: every drop of sweat, every moment, it was worth it!"

INFORMERSThe Dance Club, pro­

posed and directed by Daryl Sparks, is a combination of beginner, intermediate and advanced dancers. The group gets together weekly, during which meetings they practice basic techniques and combinations.

By the end of the year, PCDS can expect a perfor­mance from the dancers, ei­ther in the talent show, or in an entire show created by themselves.

Practice makes perfect. Guys and Dolls dancers go through their steps once more.

Director Daryl Sparks says, " Each member is quite enthusiastic, and shows promise as a dancer. Now I hope they will continue per­forming dance. My role is to make dance fun, and en­courage them to get involved in classes after the year is over."

The PCDS Drama Department, one of the oldest institutions on cam­pus, has had yet another successful year. Beginning in the fall with of "Greater Tuna" they got off to a good start.

"This play was one of the finest I've seen in my 5 years at PCDS," said Mr. Collins who directed the show. "W hich is the more amazing because of the multiple characters portrayed by the same actors," he added. The small cast had a lot of fun together and playing more than one role in this delightful comedy allowed the actors to show diversity in their work. It did, it did!

Continuing in the winter, the Dra­ma Department had its second musi­cal, "Guys and D olls." Although new this year, Mrs. Barbara Jones, the music director, did a great job and the singers enjoyed themselves. "Being in a play showed me another side of myself that 1 never knew existed," said a participant, "I think everyone should take part in at least one high school production just for the exper­ience."

In February, a record num­ber of PCDS students went to the University of Arizona in Tuscon for the annual Ari­zona Model United Nations (AMUN) program. Repre­senting a broad range of countries from around the world, Upper School students debated on issues of world importance with delegates from other high schools in the state. After more than ten years of participation in the Model U.N., PCDS has be­come a dominant force in the program. This year, the entire delegation consisted of a re­cord 67 students. There is no doubt that PCDS had the lar­gest delegation present.

Since October of 1988, stu­dents had been preparing for the trip to Tuscon. Delegates had written a series of posi­tion papers to show where their countries stood on var­

ious issues. In Tuscon, they discussed and voted on reso­lutions to resolve the prob­lems facing the world. Coor­dinator of the program, Mr. Dave Martin said, "We domi­nated the program with more than ten delegates giving for­mal speeches. We also had a lot of fun learning about the United Nations."

The delegation consisted of senior veterans who were "leaders" of their respective nations, and junior students who are anxious to get their first dose of diplomacy. Among the 15 countries being represented by PCDS, the po­litical powerhouse is un­doubtedly the United King­dom which is a permanent member of the Security Council. Bill Ramsey, Securi­ty Council delegate for U.K. said, "Enda and I really got a lot out of our participation in

the Security Council this year, especially being the head of PCDS's first "big five" mem­ber nation, the United King­dom. It was a valuable, yet fun experience in Tuscon." Model U.N. not only gave students the opportunity to learn about the effectiveness and organization of the real United Nations, it also made students aware of the issues facing the world today. For example, the Social/ Humani­tarian Committee discussed A.I.D.S. while the Security Council addressed the prob­lem of South Africa and Na­mibia. Model U.N. is a valu­able experience for everyone. It brings another dimension to the extensive social sci­ences classes and gives stu­dents new insight into the in­fluence of the United Nations in world affairs.

Leadership had a major impact on students at PCDS this year. Involving nearly everyone, Lead­ership groups have offered sup­port and started many new friendships.

Early in the year, seniors were assigned to a group of freshmen and for the rest of the year they counseled them. Incoming fresh­men often have trouble adjusting to high school or just have prob­lems with every day life. Leader­ship was a time when they could share these problems with their peers and often received sugges­tions on how to handle situa­tions. In turn, the program was also rewarding to seniors. They developed leadership qualities and shared their frustratioins as well. Another benefit of the pro­gram was the forming of friend­ships between upper and lower classmen which is rare at most schools.

Once they become sopho­mores, freshmen may continue their meetings with new groups and different leaders. Several sophomores chose to do this and as a result they have continued to benefit from counseling and par­ticipation. Juniors spend their leadership time preparing to lead a freshman group in their senior year. By this time they are confi­dent about sharing problems and are able to offer appropriate sug­gestions. They remain eager to learn about their peers and dis­cover new aspects of themselves as well.

Leadership at PCD S is a unique program that is truly beneficial to those involved.

FOR THESE GUYS, SOCCER IS A KICK

During the 1988-89 fall sea­son, the men's varsity soccer worked their way through an undefeated season. However, with their loss of the state championship game, the team became state runners-up.

The team worked hard dur­ing the season under the lead­ership of seniors. They man­aged to beat every team by a wide margin. The heartbreak­ing loss in the championship game disappointed many

players but Mr. Robert Ko- sower, director of the athletic department, believes "the sea­son cannot be judged on that final game. We played the best we could that day, under the circumstances. We are al­ways strong in soccer and the rest of the league looks to us as the leaders. As the only team to have five of its’play­ers named for allstate, it has been proven that we are the

strongest team in the league. With an eleven and one re­cord the players are also con­fident of it."

As for next year, Mr. Ko- sower believes we will have a good returning nucleus de­spite the loss of many seniors. However, we will need new players to fill the ranks and old players to take charge and maintain our status in the league as the "team to beat."

This great victory over an arch-rival of many years standing made up for an otherwise disappointing season.

Volleyball at PCDS has always been one of the most popular sports for the women. This year's team tried to im­prove their record over last year's by changing their practice strategies. The Junior Varsity has im proved im m en sely since last year, and with veteran players return­ing next season, the team will become better than ever. The Varsity team, on the other hand, will lose many of its mem­

bers to college, as only three players this year were not seniors.

The amount of effort and time these women put into the sport was am azing; they really proved that they were out on the court for a reason. The loss of play­ers will be hard on this team, but if next year's group works as hard as this year's did, they will be able to become a very strong team.

During the swimming season, the swim teams worked hard and maintained their intensity. After a slow start, the girl's team pulled off two narrow victories against St. Mary's and Glendale. "W e have been breaking our backs for two months in practicing and the work is finally paying off," says Beth Flores. M iko M cGinty, Karyn Takagi and Kristin Alli­son have consistently won their events.

The men's team also worked hard but they have come up short. The team has been strug­gling this season due to a lack of swimmers. John Trembley said, "W e work really hard and try our best, but the other team always come out on top." Despite the losses, the team saw many strong individual performances.

The addition of Angie Tan-

kersley, diver, has created a new dimension for the team. She has taken first place in competition on numerous occasions and more importantly, the points she wins are added to the total team score.

Three swimmers qualified for the state meet at A.S.U.: Bill Pet­titt after placing third in the 500 free at divisionals, Karyn Takagi having placed fifth in the 50 free at d iv is io n a ls , and M ik o M cGinty after placing fourth in the 50 free and 100 backstroke.

Next year's team looks prom­ising and Pettitt is optimistic "because much of the competi­tion will have graduated, and it will enable higher placings." Many team members will also be swimming with the Arizona Marlins to develop skills and technique. Takagi was "excited" and "can't wait for next year."

After school swimming is a very important extracurricu­lar activity for this year and next. For eight weeks during the fall and spring, students from grades kindergarten through eight swim two or three times a week.

There is one week of try­outs, and then the young swimmers are divided into two groups. The beginner group mainly concentrates on learning the four major strokes. They also do some lap work to benefit the car­diovascular system.

The advanced group does more lap work for strength, and they also work on per­fectin g the four m ajor strokes, crawl, back, butterfly and breaststroke. Also, both groups learn about water safety in case there are any accidents. In both of the sec­tions there are usually be­

tween 50 and 70 students."It is a semi-competitive ac­

tivity. We have three meets in the fall and spring," said Mr. Dan Majeski, the coach of the a fter school swimming groups. "At these meets, called fun meets, each com­petitor receives a ribbon and they all have a good time."

The after school swimming is a great activity for students from K - 8 who have nothing to do after school. It puts em­phasis on teamwork, but also on individual achievement. It is a great opportunity to make friends, have fun and learn some important skills.

The P.C.D.S. women's bas­ketball team started the year off with high spirits and a strong effort. With hard work and dedication, the team be­gan to work together and showed great team spirit.

"At first I thought it was the biggest joke and disaster in P.C.D.S. history, but then the freshmen, who had never begun to play basketball, im­proved and the whole team improved too," said Alexan­dra Nocke, our exchange stu­dent basketball player from West Germany. "I think that we will be very good by the end of the season," she added.

The coach of the women's basketball team is Ms. Liz Ol­sen. The team practices every night, and with her help they have learned to work together as a team. "We're all trying very hard, and we're working together much better than be­fore," said Pam Schrieber, an­other starter for the team.

In the past, P.C.D.S. stu­dents have expected little from the women's basketball team, but this year it was dif­ferent. "We are having fun and improving every day. In the last part of the season we expect to win many games," said Kristin Allison.

basketball team did. some­thing new that past teams avoided . N am ely , th ey opened the season with a win­ning record and after the first two weeks of play, they had won more games than last year's team did the entire sea­son. With the first PCDS Holiday Tournament cham­pionship added to these ac­complishments, the team seemed well on its way to achieving the goal of a .500 record set by Coach Bob Hen­drickson. Senior co-captains Jason Cohen and Kip Boetel set the style of play, showing off their moves and generally "hooping like fools." Along

with junior Bill Dumone's sharp-shooting and the "monster boards" of junior big men Scott Small and Holi­day Tournament MVP Aron Drayer, the improvement in the team's skills was evident. As Jason Cohen said, "It was truly a team Sean Elliot (U of A player) would be proud of." Fan attendance increased at the home games, which often inspired the team to a higher level of play. In the JV ranks, a raw, young team under the direction of Coaches Elling- son and Chad Dennis who look to prepare future Varsity stars improved as the season wore on. Eagles, let's play ball!

£ SWING“Shoot for two, Big Blue!

We want two!" For students who attended Men's Basket­ball games this year, the tal­ented and spirited PCDS Cheer Line became a very common and welcome sight. The Varsity Cheerleaders, led by co-captains Roz Bolger and Amy Levine, were un­doubtedly one of the best cheer lines in PCDS history.

"I see plenty of cheer­leaders at all the sports func­tions that I attend," said Mr. Bob Kosower, Athletics Di­rector, reporting on a big sports event at one morning meeting, "but none of them compare with ours."

"Other coaches at the tour­nament were saying to me "Your cheerleaders are terrif­

ic" and that really added to my pride in PCDS."

Improvement was accom­plished by increasing the number of cheerleaders (in­cluding adding one male, Paul Geantil), great school spirit this year and inspired new cheers (no-one will ever forget the notorious "What-What- W h at-W h at-W h at-W h at- What!" cheer!)

A Junior Varsity line was also established, with co-cap- tains Laura Dingman and Lisa Brook, and members Angie Tankersley, Jeanne Geantil, Kit Walton and Cristi Dyer to cheer on the efforts of the men's JV basketball team and women's varsity. Cheer has never been better than this year.

T h is year's PC D S golf team definitely has the p oten tial for su ccess. T h e retu rn of ju n ior Brett W alton , w ho last year finished 7th place in the entire state, is ex­pected to inspire the team to even greater suc­cess. Talented golfers Sargent Pillsbury (sen­ior), A ri Plosker (junior), B re k E a to n ( ju n io r ) , D ave Landau (senior) and Kip Boetel (senior) hope to im prove their ow n gam es enough to seriously challenge W al­ton and infuse the whole

team with a friendly competitive spirit.

Ably coached by "ex­pert” golfers, Mr. Mar­tin and Mr. Hendrick­son, the Eagles hope to get off to a quick start and ride their momen­tum to a high finish in the State tournament in May. Due to the nature of the sport, the golfers do not expect much fan support (not suitable for cheerleaders!), but they have high hopes that their achievements will bring pride and respect to PCDS.

MEN’S BASEBALL I f T i p PROVES THEY’RE A X

B a s e b a ll , w ith o u t a doubt, is one of the most popular team sports at PCDS. T he 1989 team brings new hope to base­ball fans as new players jo in the team. " I feel that this year's team is strong and will go all out for a prosperous season," said Brett W alton.

Freshmen and other new players bring quality and hope for a great year. The players are confident that they will have a season that will bury last year's re­cords.

The team has been prac­

ticing every night for two and a half hours in prep­aration for their first game. The team is relying much on returning seniors, but freshmen and other lower- classmen will play key roles.

Baseball is a great spec­tator sport for PCDS stu­dents and there is no doubt that when the team starts playing they will be well supported.

Students and team mem­bers anxiously await the beginning of the 1989 baseball season.

ITS ALL D I T ^ U IN HER r I I O r !

The 1989 Eagles softball team is back with full force, powered by star pitcher Jen­nifer Wilson. After a disap­pointing finish in the new Class B league, the team has gained the necessary exper­ience to seriously compete for the state title in May.

Pitching is 90 percent of softball and Jennifer Wilson is the Eagle's biggest assest in that department. Although her untimely injury at the end of last season quelled the rais­ing momentum for the state tournament, "The Nif" is back and ready to propel the team to a state victory. "I do not want to speculate on us winning state, but the possi­bility and attitude are defi­

nitely there," said Wilson.Even though last season

was disappointing and frus­trating for fans and players alike, the team has gained the necessary experience and ma­turity to compete for the state title. The team is led by a strong returning nucleus con­sisting of seniors Jennifer Wilson, Roz Bolger Kerstan Linclon, and sophmores Lisa Brook and Jenny Bolyard. The 1989 softball team con­tains all the necessary ingre­dients for an exciting season, perhaps even the same ele­ments as that of the 1987 sea­son which culminated in the state title for the Phoenix Country Day Eagles.

Returning Varsity: Roz Bolger and Jennifer Wilson (co-cap­tains), Kerstan Lincoln, Lisa Brook and Jennifer Bolyard.

Back row: Coach Schweikher, K. Cesal, L. Tobias, K. Lincoln, J. Wilson, A. Mallace, K. Cox. Front row: R. Bolger, J. Bolyard, L. Brook, T. McNeff, C. Cooper, M. Foran.

AS ALWAYS O l i i l A O L I TENNIS IS A O l V I M O n

The 1989 PCDS Tennis teams will have a hard act to follow. Last year's mens team was victorious over all but one of the schools they played. The womens team was also very success­ful in competition.

However, the new teams show great promise as well. The combination of talented and skilled play­ers ranging from freshmen

to veteran seniors will pro­duce power doubles and expert singles. "O ur own PCDS tennis teams show a lot of promise this year," said Mr. Flail, coach of the teams.

W om en's tennis is par­ticularly on the rise this year. W ith the help of women such as Germany's 19-year old Steffi Graf, re­

spect for the game is grow­ing. Graf won a "Golden Slam" in 1989 - all four Grand Slam tournaments and a Gold Medal at the Olympics in Seoul, Korea. Mr. and Mrs. Grau, PCDS parents, had the honor of meeting Steffi there, and her autograph and a greet­ing to the Yearbook can be seen on page 1.

HEAD’S MESSAGEA n In te rv ie w w ith M rs . M a r a a r e t M a d d e n

Q. W hat is the most enjoyable part of your job?

A. Opportunities to work with students and faculty on educa­tional and leadership issues.

Q. How are our excellent faculty selected?

A. W hen a position becomes avi- lable, the School notifies edu­cational placement agencies and top college placement of­fices and may also advertise locally. The School then re­quests that candidates send re­sumes and fill out application forms to be reviewed by de­partm ent ch airs, d iv ision heads, and the head of the School. The most qualified candidate^ are interviewed, usually both by phone and in person. Finalists are encour­aged to meet with department­al faculty and students. The School calls for references and may even request that a candi­date teach a class here during his or her visit before a final offer is made.

Q . Can you give some statististics about the alumni?

A. There are 669 PCDS alumni on file in the computer. 415 live in Arizona, of which 376 live in the Phoenix area. Some alumni children are now old enough to attend school and four are current PCDS stu­dents. The first PCDS Alumni Association was created two years ago and alumni interest has been gorwing steadily ever since. 53 people attended a re­cent reunion on campus for the Classes of '76 through '79.

Q. How does PCDS compare with other schools in your ex­perience?

A. PCDS is a very young school. All of the other schools for which I worked were at least 100 years old, and one was 200 . . . its first building having been burned by the British during the American Revolu­tion. Schools develop a clear identity and purpose in the community over a period of time as different generations go through the program. Some

schools maintain a very spe­cific and visible style. PCDS appears to have experieced a number of different styles during its short development. Feedback from entering fam­ilies now indicates growing clarity in the community of the particular goals and rigor­ous standards of this fine col­lege preparatory institution. Families appear to be coming here for this specific educa­tional experience, not simply because they are dissatisfied with other experiences.

Q. Can you tell us something about PCDS's ties to the com­munity?

A. I have always felt that an exel- lent independent school has a responsibility to serve the larger community and, indeed, PCDS is very involved with Phoenix area organizations and services. As a member of the Arizona Partnership, I re­present PCDS at meetings with other schools and com­panies who work together to improve educational offerings in the area. PCDS staff mem­bers are currently working with the Arizona Museum of Science and Technology and the Phoenix Symphony to co­ordinate efforts and focus on some joint programs. Through our Community Services Pro­

gram, PCD S serves many areas of need in Phoenix in­cluding the homeless and hungry, and Tolstoy refugees. PCDS also provides enrich­ment for a number of inner- city children through Project Excellence. The School cam­pus is available for a number of charities such as Special Olympics, Leukemia Society, and the Upward Foundation. Just this year, we have become involved with the Marshall Fund, helping plan their first student exchange program in Russia. It is important, I feel, that we constantly increase our ties with the community and serve it well.

Q. W hat values would you most like to see graduates of PCDS take to college?

A. Respect for self and for others, flexibility, integrity, and re­sponsibility for the well-being of themselves, others and their environment.

Q. How do you feel about student participation in our sports program?

A. I have been pleased to see a steady increase of the student participation in the sports pro­gram. Between 80-85% of the middle and upper school stu­dents now participate in inter­

school sports. Additionally, a good number participate in in­tramural and club sports. A growing number of lower school students are entering the swim, tennis and sports camp programs. Students at PCDS are fortunate in being able to try their choice of sev­eral sports each season. Some will go on to excel but all can learn to play the game well, enjoy it, learn the benefit of being a team member and ac­cept the value of good sports­manship.

Q. We know that women's issues are important to you; how do you incorporate that into the day-to-day running of the school?

A. Actually, my interest is in "people" issues. I am con­cerned that both young wom­en and young men focus on the history and roles of both sexes as they have been in­volved in the development of our civilization and face the challenges of the future. Be» cause, all too often in the past, textbooks, teaching and re­search have focused more heavily on the roles of men, it may take creating special awareness and education to balance society's perception. Discussions of contributions of women in history, not just token heroines such as Mme. Curie; acknowledgement of past bias in research, Kol- berg's long accepted research on moral development which was found recently to be based only on studies of young men; discussions of episodes and characters in English and for­eign literature which can lead to a popular understanding of the changing gender roles;] equally strong training of both men and women in public speaking and self presenta­tion; and more even public support for both men's anal women's activities should be woven into the daily fabric of this school.

HHappy Halloween by Sarah DuncanIt was almost Halloween. On

every Halloween at twelve, the ghost that lives at the old man­sion comes out. He tries to rule the world and on this Halloween, if no one stopped him, he would. The only way you could kill the ghost was to not be fooled by his tricks.

That night everyone met at Ste- fani's house and all they had was a flashlight. They walked into the haunted house and looked around. All of a sudden, Kate E., Annie and Stefani fell into a hole.

Everyone was scared but kept on going. Slowly they continued until Jordy, Keith and Rodney leaned on a wall. The wall turned around, taking the boys with it. Frankie sat down feeling a little more than worried about his friends. He leaned back in his chair (as usual), fell backwards and was gone.

The girls screamed and Mrs. Bippus almost fainted but they kept on going, Then Summer, Sarah S. and Sarah D. stepped in a rope and were pulled up scream- - ing! Leslie, Matt and William were shaking so much they fell through the floor! M rs. Bippus shrieked, "W here is everyone?"

As she looked around she didn't notice a white figure com­ing towards her. Mrs. Bippus was too scared to scream. The ghost reached out and was just about to touch her when everyone jumped out and shouted, "HAPPY HAL­LOWEEN!"

The whole thing was a joke on Mrs. Bippus! She didn't know that the ghost was really Mrs. Funkhouser! Mrs. Funkhouser took off the sheet and started laughing. M rs. Bippus didn't know how to react. Should she laugh, be mad or scream? She de­cided to just say, "Happy Hallow­een to all you too!" Then she laughed and started planning for next Halloween.

CALIFORNIAIn September the eighth

grade class went to the Or­ange County Marine Insti­tute in California. There we studied many different types of environment and went for many walks.

On the first day some of us went up a mountain which was tiring and very hot. The other half went down a cool and relaxing path to see if they could catch fish.

The second day it was vice versa. The second half of the second day we played games and did some experiments. It was like electives.

Everyone liked the third day the best though. We came down from the camp and went to the actual Ma­rine Institute. That day we dissected a fish and went out in a large boat called the Sun Fish, and collected dirt from the bottom and fish from the top. Even though a lot of people got sick or colds on this trip, it was the best trip we've ever been on.

VALUE OF ARTEach year at PCDS one

semester is devoted to art and the other is saved for computer. This year in eighth grade art we have done mostly painting and drawing, but one major project was to create a three-dimensional plastic sculture.

We also worked on per­spective and learning to draw faces. During the few classes set aside for art guides we learned about different artists and styles of art.

I enjoy art because I can express my feelings in a constructive way and I learn more about my class­mates as I observe their artwork.

Freshman year is filled with new experiences, new people, new sur­roundings and most of all, new problems. For the first time, thoughts of college preparation en­ter their heads. In addition, they must survive the "freshmen" label, not to mention suffering two years of on-campus "privilege".

The class of '92 shows a great deal of potential, both socially and academically. Unity throughout the class is strong, even with 55% of the class being new. "I like the freedom and trust here," states a new fresh­man. They also "like the way fresh­men and seniors can be friends", which would be unusual in a large school.

Clubs are a new experience to the class. Ski club, community service, and the newspaper are big hits that provide significant opportunities

for participating members. As members, the freshmen grow and learn things that they can apply later in their high school career while having fun in the process. Leadership groups with seniors are an exciting new experience that freshmen look forward to weekly. In their groups, they are able to share what's on their mind and learn more about their classmates in a positive and uplifting atmo­sphere. "It's a good way to put aside your worries and have a good time while you're at it," says a freshman participant. Freshman year is a difficult year to get through, but eventually all will look back on it with happy memo­ries.

Th e class of 1991 breathed a sigh of relief as their first year of high school finally cam e to a close. T h is year th ey returned, so m uch older and w iser, no longer the low ­ly fresh m en of the school. N ow th ey even had a class behind them and life seem ed nearly perfect!

But soon the Sophomores realized the sad truth of high school life — the real privi­leges don't start coming until they become upperclassmen. Still, most Sophomores made the best of what they had, and managed to survive and even enjoy their school year.

JUNIORSWe're the Class of '90!

Starting off the year with plenty of spir­it by winning the class cheer competition, the juniors proved that the only thing they lacked is money. The tasks of pulling it­self out of the infamous debt, raising enough money for prom, and uniting the class were successfully accomplished by the four dedicated class leaders.

Rising to a new level as upper classmen, the class of '90 realized that with all their privileges (like the long awaited drivers license and off campus) came some impor­tant responsibilities. It means paying at­tention to Mr. Schweikher's announce­ments at morning meeting, taking the PSAT's “for real", and starting to think about colleges.

Sure, the Juniors have matured but we found another side to their studious exte­rior:

Break Up The Family

The strange logic of your clumsiest line stayed em­blazoned on my mind break up the family and let's begin to live our lives.I went to see all my friends tonightIt wasn't youth, it wasn't even lifeDum ola, sadly wise, re­signed (well, we were) to ending our lives.I'm so glad to grow older, to move away from those awful times.I want to see all my friends tonight.Yes, you found love but you weren't at peace with your life .Home late, full of hate, de­spise the ties that bind. Oh, I'm so glad to grow older, to move away from those younger years.Now I'm in love for the first time, and I dont feel bad.Let me see all my old friends, let me put my arms around them because I really do love them. Now, does that sound mad?

Captain of Games, solid frames.I stood on the touchline, hailstones, driven home, in his car, no brakes?I don't mind.I'm just so glad to grow

older, to move away from those danger years.I'm in love for the first time and I don't feel bad.So wish me luck, my friends.

GOODBYE.— Morrisey

Friend, sister, see through the hungry times we see the most

You're my family, I thank you for the time you chose

To be a part of my life You help me fight against the pain I'll see you on the other side

It never matters even when it's strained

Together we can make the world seem like the place it could be And though hate and anger comes

and goes We'll walk along this road Down a path where walls fall over And fall down upon our heads and

wake againIt is better to stand for something than to fall fo anything—DISSENT

Adjustment

Into a figured pattern which is not "me"I fit myself, square corners curved,Curved edges squared, a geometric plan For one uniquely untriangular.Procrustean beds are now familiar And oddly comfortable, I stretch Beyond the simple length and breadth of selfTo find a new dimension now not "I" Nor "me" but what I choose to make Of all my selves, fused, planed, and honed Into another shape.

Equality DayFor every woman who is tired of acting weak when she is

strong, there is a man who is tired of appearing strong when he feels vulnerable;

For every woman who is tired of acting dumb, there is a man who is burdened with the constant expectation of knowing everything;

For every woman who is tired of being called "an emotional female" there is a man who is denied the right to weep and to be gentle;

For every woman who is called unfeminine when she com­petes, there is a man for whom competition is the only way to prove his masculinity;

For every woman who is tired of being a sex object, there is a man who must worry about his potency;

For every woman who feels "tied down" by her children, there is a man who is denied the full pleasure of shared parent­hood;

For every woman who is denied meaningful employment or equal pay, there is a man who must bear full financial respon­sibility for another human being;

For every woman who was not taught the intricacies of an automobile, there is a man who was not taught the satisfaction of cooking;

For every woman who takes steps towards her own liber­ation, there is a man who finds the way to freedom has been made a little easier.

Time all of a sudden tightens the tether,And the outspread years are drawn together.W hat is the secret of the trick?How did I get so old so quick?Perhaps I can find by consulting the filesHow step after step added up to miles. I was sauntering along, my business minding. When suddenly struck by affection blinding,W hich led to my being a parent nervous Before they invented the diaper service.I tried to be as wise as Diogenes In the rearing of my little progenies.But just as I hit upon wisdom's essence They changed from infants into adolescents.I stood my ground, being fairly sure That one of these days they must mature.Here lies my past, goodbye I have kissed it;Thank you, kids, I wouldn't have missed it!

We would like to thank all those who made the Yearbook what it is. Maia, you were not only dependable and responsi­ble but your photographs are beautiful. Good luck in '90. Enda and Brent, the time you spent with Autocopy, captions and articles is mind-boggling! Thanks to your efforts, the captions are informative, and the articles written by the copy staff fit. Michelle, this year we sold more ads and got more patrons than even our spectacular effort in ' 88 . Dave, we had a car wash and got fund-raising started - thanks! Kristin, layout is not only hard to organize, but it demands a good design sense. You can do both and have helped tremendous­
