In this issue we take a look at the roots of
Rocklin High School's culture. In 'Rocklin
High from way-back-when,' we examine
the original geography and dynamics of
RHS when it first opened back in 1993.
We investigate the root of the Del Oro-
Rocklin rivalry in 'Thunder vs. Eagles.'
For additional research we conducted
an experience piece, 'Because I've been
there,' where we spent a game day at Del
Oro to examine the cultural differences.
We also took this opportunity to examine
the history of our students, from those
who have moved here from Hawaii in
'From the tropics to suburbia' to how some
have been forced to deal with the loss of
a parent in 'Growing up too soon.' We
hope to provide a deeper insight into what
Rocklin High is, and how it became such.
