Ronald Reagan, big bangs–big hair, countless cans of hairspray, ET, Star Wars, and Ghostbusters, Michael Jackson and Madonna–from the hippies to the preppies–the 80s were alive at CHS.
While diving through decades to cover previous homecomings, the 80s couldn’t be missed.
The fashion such as big hair, pencil dresses and skirts, and big princess dresses could be found at the CHS Homecoming in the 80s. We dove in to a yearbook from 1983.
As shown below:
