I stumbled across Gabe Thexton's blog yesterday and it made me wonder whether anyone has contributed to the Wikipedia page for our dear alma mater. *clears throat*
I found a half-hearted infobox with a photo of the school and a blurb about how D'Evelyn has the highest average ACT score of any Colorado school. None of the fun stuff, not even a tongue-in-cheek reference to the Prayer Group Named After That Dean What Died Suddenly or our sports teams' stellar successes. Some indeterminate time of flogging minimally interesting data later (and looking at pictures of cheerleaders, heh heh), I present: D'Evelyn Junior/Senior High School on Wikipedia.
karaksindru, if you have access to your yearbooks, I most kindly request -- and offer favors to be negotiated later -- for you to scan the opening ceremony photos from the first yearbook for me. I no longer have access to a copy so I'm hoping you might. *bats eyelashes*

Happy Thanksgiving.
It turns out I don't actually require pictures of cheerleaders, though I do appreciate the thought. ^_^
I don't require pictures of cheerleaders either, but it was enlightening to see how far the athletic programs at my alma mater have come since I was there. My memories involve them running on dental floss and duct tape.
I once drew a diagram explaining how two routes from the west area bus barn served all of the district option schools and programs (with transfers to other area buses, of course), but it's lost in the mists of memory now.
I spent at least an hour a day on the bus when I went to D'Evelyn. I don't miss that part of high school.
Also - up until last year when she started law-school, I knew the D'Evelyn cheerleading coach. We went to college together.
So now you know.
Sadly, I have no idea who their cheerleading coach was or is. The only non-staff person I know there know is the drill writer for the marching band.
Thanks for the samples, too. I've been curious about that new Biore line but hadn't tried it yet.
