William (Bill)'s Story
School
Oh my where do I start. 4 years of high school, 5 schools (we moved around a lot back then). 3 schools in 1972. That was rough. It was almost 6 schools when we moved to Denair & the school there wanted me & my sister. We were allowed to finish up at Hughson due to the short time remaining in the school year.
Here's the list:
1969-70 Analy High, Sebastopol, CA
1970-71 Rancho Cotate High, Rohnert Park, CA
1971-72 Chester High, Chester, CA
1972-72 Crestmoor High, San Bruno, CA
1972-73 Hughson High, Hughson, CA
I enjoyed Chester and Hughson as they were small schools and practically everyone was involved in something or another. You also knew almost everyone. That's hard in big schools. Analy & Rancho Cotate were big schools. Rancho Cotate was where I went with most of my friends from Elementary School in Cotati. Crestmoor in San Bruno was huge. I was in the band at all these schools and involved in sports too. I know I was a scrub but it was still fun. I tried to get involved in some other things, not knowing when or if we were going to move again. So I kept to myself, semi-private like I guess you could say. Never had a girlfriend in any school but wanted one or two. After high school, I thou...Expand for more
ght I was going to go to the JC but joined the Army which is a whole story in itself. After my hitch was done, I worked as an auto mechanic at gas stations & car lots before landing with Sonoma County. I also did 2 years in the National Guard then joined the Reserves. I got sent to Desert Storm in 91. The county retired me out in 98 & I retired from the Army in 2000. I live in low stress Lake County now, I'm divorced. So to all my high school friends who may remember me I say Hello, hope you're well. Cheers everybody.
PS: 5 May 24 / Thank you everyone stopping by my profile. All 500+ times lol. I never thought of myself as popular because of all the schools I attended. Because of the 50+ years since school it's difficult for me to recall everyone from 5 high schools. Rancho Cotate students would know me best since I'm from Cotati & did 6 out 7 elementary classes at Cotati. Crestmoor in San Bruno would know me least since I was only there a couple of months. I only remember one girl from there in band who played French horn like me. She was good & I don't remember her name. I only have 2 Yearbooks to look up pictures. 1969-70 at Analy & 1972-73 at Hughson. Once again thank you everybody stopping by.
