Liver, extra bacon, extra gravy, mashed potatoes corn, a bun, 2 milks, and a Joe Louis for $1.75.
Much to my chagrin, they actually do check your academic history! So... go to university and do well. You can have lots of fun, but get good grades. A good philosophy to live by might be might be "Work hard, play hard."
Ms. Sonia
Ms. Prudhomme
I think Woody Allen said it best "85% of success is showing up!" I guess that's why I don't know whether to put my information in the class of 1981 or 1982.
Vanier College
Centennial College
University of Toronto
Too many good memories to mention.
I'm not that wise and I believe I might have been more confident of my opinions when I was 16.
What a great idea. Thank you for setting this up. The memories have made me smile.
John Abbott College
Concordia University
Hmmmm... well that's a tough one. I guess performing in the variety show (with Andrea McCambridge and Laurie Barbe) ha ha. Oh, yes, and getting that diploma!
Hang in there. It only gets better after high school.
Mr. Litschauer
I've been married since 1989 to a wonderful man and have a beautiful 4-year-old boy. We just moved to Burlington VT after 11 years in New Jersey. It was fun living and working in and around the Big Apple. Lots of great life experiences along the way.

Hangin' with my friends in the caf. (you GUYS know who you are), Concerts (I do remember April Wine Terry :)), Swanson's ice cream, movies in the auditorium, Mr. "Garbonzo-Bean's" English class.... the man knew his Shakespeare!
We are told "life is what you make of it", and as a young adult we don't understand the importance of this wisdom until we ARE adults. Listen to people who have been there and enjoy life.
Mrs. Ball
They say you can never go back home, it changes too much; I never left home, it's always with me as are the memories. Love to you all.

Mr. Gugliami

Smoking plaza, coffee machine and buns with coleslaw in them. Oh and we can't forget about the oatmeal cookies.
Actually, all the teachers were pretty cool. Stay in school and pass each grade, this is the quickest way to getting out and getting educated. Get involved with your school, join a group, you will be amazed at the friends you will make and the memories you will have.

The school had great spirit. I think students had pride in P.C.H.S, even though if they had a choice between school and the "Rez" well you know what I mean.
High School is just the start of an amazing journey through life, keep your
head up and hold on.

Playing basketball in the gym during lunch time. Ski trip to Quebec city. Hanging out at lunch and goofing around.
Don't worry, it solves nothing and just keeps you up at night. Then you wake up the next day, you're tired, and what ever will happen, will happen. You're stronger than you think, and will be amazed at what you can overcome. Enjoy the simple things in life and you'll find happiness where ever you look.

Mashed potatoes with gravy and green oatmeal cookies. A word of advice ... bring your own lunch.
Do what you do best, and you will succeed!

Hey where are the windows? Taking off at lunch time! Making friendships...

Being in all those committees and hearing on the intercom that you're needed elsewhere in the middle of a boring class. *grin*
Stay in school for as looooong as you can....You won't belief the taxes you'll have to pay when you get out!
Mr. Wilbreckt
John Abbott College

Field trip to New York City and our unscheduled trip to John Lennon's memorial service in Central Park (Thanks Mr. Weinberg), and our unofficial grad ski week-end at Smuggler's.
Lighten up - In 20 years none of it will matter. Except the mean things you did - that you'll regret. So play nice.

Every day of senior year.Splitting a six pack with Michel Arsenault last day of grad year.When I hit Mr.Gail in the face with a dodge ball and he made us sit down for the rest of class.And it goes on and on...

So many... Lunch with the gang. Drivers ed with "Red." Dances. Physics class with those crazy wave pools. Burning magnesium in chem lab (oops!). My fantastic stage career began and ended with Jesus Christ Superstar (angel dancer - hmmm). I still have the casette tape... thank GAWD I wasn't singing :) Graduation - the ceremony, the ball and the AFTER PARTY.
You WILL graduate. Just stay conscious long enough to enjoy it and safe enough to survive it. Success is not a matter of smarts, but of "ass to chair" determination and motivation. Although smarts certainly would make it easier.

Enjoy your years at P.C. and let us old graduates know if you find some windows, we didn't!
Mr. Waters
John Abbott College
My fondest memory of P.C. is the play "Jesus Christ Superstar" done in 1981. I was not in the play, but did do make-up and was friends with many cast members. The play was incredible, and the bond made between all involved was unforgettable.
Stick to school if you want to get anywhere, no matter how much you hate it. Don't loose touch with your friends.

Thanks for setting up this page!
Dawson College
Let's see. There were so many. Most of you will probably remember me as the short black chick who dated that really tall guy (Albert).
Fondest memory would probably be the look on all the students when Albert and I (we met at summer school) walked in on the first day of school wearing canary yellow outfits.
Mr. McNaught (Drama)
Would be nice to hear from some of you. I found Nicole Morneau today and that was so nice

Field trips (and now that I live in Quebec City, I pass this spot in town and it always brings back memories and thoughts about spots on my glasses!), lunch time basketball. Having Wilbur and Reidl one after the other - how to go from one extreme to the other.
You will never know who you will meet in school and I met my future wife and we have been together 19 years now! -- Make the most of today because tomorrow is too late.
Mr. Olenocin

Can't wait to see everyone at that reunion (even though 5 years is a long time from now)

My boy friend G.C. and all the fun after school activites with friends in 10th and 11th grade.
Keep a list of your friends phone numbers and addresses. you never know when your life will take you far a way from where you grew up. Getting back in touch after twenty years is hard.
Does anyone else live in the states?

The excitement of representing your school either on the football field or the hockey rink; the spirit generated by the student body at the annual Sam D'Iorio games; the anticipation of dancing with the girl of your dreams at a Friday night dance...ahh the memories.
These days are very special, cherish them.

Cherish the time you have at high school because it only happens once. Enjoying your high school years increases your chances for a great future.

I have so many fond memories. Munchies with Cathy. Dancing in Jesus Christ Superstar! As I age my memory is fading. I know I liked a lot of my teachers but cannot recall their names. I do recall the Deena Alberteeny being a wonderful source of inspiration and support.
Work hard and continue your education. Research indicates that the higher your level of education, the better your pay. Find work that you are passionate about and follow your bliss!
I hope all my old classmates are doing well!

Graduating ... Ha !! The Dances ... the house parties ... summer vacations with friends ... shooting pool at Chez Paul's ... the Rez ... going to concerts (remember April Wine) with school buddies when a 20 would get you a ticket and a 6-pack .... and 3-for-5 was actually 5 bucks!
Ha ... enjoy it now -- you're living the life of Riley!
Mr. Songui
Saint Mary's University
Field trips to Quebec City & Mt St. Gregoire, card games in the caf, getting free ice cream sandwiches from the vending machine.
High School is great - enjoy it and remember there are many more great things to look forward to in life. Make new friends but keep the old - new ones are silver the old ones are gold.
McGill University
Lunch time slop sandwiches.
Choose your friends carefully.There are lots of people who mistake their imagination for their memories.
I have no memory of any good ones really.
KARMA...
John Abbott College
Crones Institute - Chicago
Buying my lunch out of the vending machines in the "caf". Having my first "bev" at Chez Paul's then shooting pool next door. Having classes in the portables; freeze in the winter...bake in the summer. Having crushes on A.P. S.C. ... and many more! Skipping class and getting chased by the higher authorities. Wishing the clocks ran faster in each class. Trying to understand why I went to the dances... Oh yeah, to hear "Stairway Too Heaven" play... Vahoo!
Get a job! ... That's what my dad told me to do!

Field trip to Montreal Stock Exchange and breaking at least two federal laws; 5 cent milk; The Smudges; Peter, Paul and Marier; Mr. Zawada drawing circles; Ski team "lunches" on the Rock; The best 7 years of Andy Babin's life.
Don't listen to other peoples advice. Advice such as, "Don't go into computer engineering. Why would anybody ever want to do that!" could be very detrimental to your future earning potential.

When I look back on my life (growing up... not that I have finished yet); the people I remember first and cherish the most, are my friends from P.C.
Get involved (I wish I had been). Your school has more to offer outside of class than in it.
Mrs. Olenocin
I had a college professor who once said, "you can sleep when you graduate". I then got married and had children... He was wrong.
Vanier College
McGill University
For the life of me I can't remember much. Besides being called a lot of names... I remember setting my hair on fire in the caf (by mistake), busting the zipper on my supper tight jeans by bending over and eating way too many buns with cheese for lunch (by mistake). I really didn't have "fond" memories of high school...sorry!
Be nice!
My life was a tough journey but a spiritual one.
One of the best things that happened to me was that I ended up in A.A. I have been sober for 11 1/2 years now.
I have two beautiful sons. One is 16 (honor student at Royal West Academy) and the other is 3
(student of my very own daycare center - 60 children).
I worked hard to get where I am. I stay in shape, try to live life right and take good care of my sons. I recently married a wonderful man. At 42
I feel blessed.

My fondest memory of P.C.? There's just too many memories to narrow it down to one. It was a good time, it was a crazy time, and I would not of missed it for the world!
Stay in school.... it's a lot easier!
