Here are the "Frosh Cheerleaders" from 1964. My how uniforms have changed! Marti Dabelstein, Linda Wotherspoon, Clara Bauermeister, Jeanne Sheldon, Jeanette Bendtsen, Linda Davis. All were class of 1967.
🐾1964 was the first graduating class for Burke, although they technically were at Beveridge (it was called Beveridge High School then) while Burke was being built. They had 9th-12th graders at the building then.

I’m not exactly sure which year “Burke” was introduced, but there was Burke Beveridge and Burke Morton before the Burke building was opened. Both Burke Beveridge and Burke Morton had 7th-12th grades.
Loved riding the bus with all the Beveridge/Morton high schoolers
My sister died right before graduation of 64. This is cool
Sweet Bulldog Ladies.

Check out this human pyramid against the outside of the Burke building! Oh the looks on all of their faces, but especially the girl on the top and the guy in the Burke Metro Champs shirt! 🤣The pic is from the 1976 yearbook. No names are listed. Who are these daring acrobats? And did they graduate in '76? And did they all get down ok?!!

They're correct. Taffy Wrighton on the top, then Doug Anderson, and Mike Reznicek. Bottom I think is Tom Baker, then Mike Galligan and Craig Ellis.
I am pretty sure the top one is taffy. And I think all of them graduated in 1976
Top is Taffy Wrighton, middle row right is Mike Reznicek, bottom middle is Mike Galligan our QB, bottom right is Craig Ellis.
Yep I recognize taffy and I recognize a few of the guys. I’ll ck w Deni Sudbeck
