Film Yearbook 1976

- čas přidán 5. 09. 2024
- At Arroyo High School in San Lorenzo, I had a cheap super-8 camera and in my senior year I decided to capture some of the juvenile antics I could persuade my friends to do with me. All this is in bad taste now but I like the fact that I have proof of myself at eighteen. I chose Let Your Love Flow by the Bellamy Brothers because that was the #1 hit record the summer I graduated.
I was a freshman in 1976. Shout out to all my fellow 60 year olds, those were the days. ❤❤❤❤
Me, too. Well, freshman year was '75, but I was still a freshman in '76. 😉
Me too!
1976✨✨To All The✨✨⭐⭐⭐ Freshman Strong✨✨✨💪💪💪⭐⭐ If Father Time✨✨ Could Only Turn Back The Hands Of Time😞✨✨
🌹💙 Sr. 80 Rocks! 👍
I was a sperm. Shout out to all of my fellow sperm who lost the race.
I graduated in 1976. Can't believe that was 48 years ago. Those times were the best.
Class of 78, and I enjoyed watching. Simpler times, no cell phones, no school shootings.
No school shootings? Olean High School shooting, Fullerton massacre, and Cleveland Elementary School shooting wants a word with you....
I was a freshman in 1976 I'm 63 an yes by God those were the REAL GOOD OLE DAYS. Damit we had fun
I remember this there was a group of guys that always stood on the 200 hall they set bottle rockets off I graduated with those nuts
Those were the days my friend, we thought they'd never end...
We'd sing and dance, forever and a day
Absolutely the best videos to watch about a great time with great music. Before technology ruined things . No cell phones.
World went to trash by mid to late 2000s with the boom of smartphones and social media.
This was my class 76 high school was fun,challenging,safe and respectful to teachers and students plus pleanty of cool cars from the 60s
Such a sad dichotomy that nostalgia brings joy and sadness in equal measure.
This brought a tear to my eye. It was filled with some sadness but lots of joy!! Class of 77 here!! It was the best era EVER to be a teenager!! Whilst our generation was becoming liberated/modernized, we still held on to family values and traditions. What a great balancing act!!
It's so sad to see what's become of this once-great nation of ours (and its people)!! I hope, no...I PRAY we fix things soon so our grandchildren can experience the HOPE and joy we all had back then!!
Thanks for sharing this. Was fun to watch!!
The 70s and 80s were great ..watching vids like this is very nostalgic and bittersweet .. youth and energy and that innocent fun mindset . A time that will never be again. Time goes by blindingly fast
I'm an 1980 grad. Phoenix, AZ, class of about 400. I never saw race. TV, ads, magazines... all the same to me. My class had maybe a dozen Hispanics that were all American, Zero Blacks, the other 390 milky white like me. I see race now, unfortunately. Mass immigration and acceptance and glorification of thugish behavior got us here to 2024 apocalypse.
@@atatterson6992 I've seen Changes in last 17yrs in Phoenix area, cant Imagine in your 44+ yrs. Arizona 100yrs ago was 90% White, nope had 90% Whites. I grew up in Midwest City, Best friends were Hispanic, Black and surprisingly Japanese. In 1978 for the 8th grade moved to the Suburbs, District had one Hispanic Kid, rest of the K-12 all White. There we had Grad Class of 130. In the City my School had 2400 in 10-12th. Back then the City had 4 HS with 9K attending, K-12 was 35000. Now there is only 9900 K-12. My 4 Grand Daughters are getting great education here in AZ, much better then would have where I'm from
@@firstsgt279 Thanks for taking the time to ade to the PHX convo:-)
I loved growing up there. The biggest, most impactful thing to happen to me/us in the first 18 years of life was someone I knew once had their bicycle stolen! Such a scandal!!!
I'm afraid AZ has been bleeding from paper cuts for many years, but ever since Kari Lake had the election stolen from her, coupled with Buyden "winning" 2020... AZ has some major work to do.
@@atatterson6992 HA, Yeah! Lived/Stationed all around while in Army. The Metro Phoenix area there is so much choose from. Spent a Decade in Ahwatukee/Tempe/Chandler corner while my Kids Graduated HS and went to ASU. Last 8yrs been out in San Tan Valley where we just built new home last yr, now just waiting for the new north/south highway be built and connect us
I loved those days! I can remember the feelings of that era instantly. Amazing time. I still think the guys of the '70's are the hottest!!! The funniest. The most original. The best. Best looking.
I graduated in 1982. This exactly how I grew up. No internet , no cell phones, life was great! Now look where we are.

I loved this it was like stepping back in time to my high school days! Class of 1977
Class of 76 best time ever. ❤
Wonderful time. Class of ‘76 here too but in the UK! Thank you for reminding us of the much happier and simpler times.
Class of 77... brought me right back . Thank you!
In 76 just started high school
I was born March 1976. I would do anything to go back and live and grow up in that time again.
It was fun.
At 9 years old in 1976.
Dazed and Confused nailed the look and feel of 1976.
Man what a time.
This is a great memory I'm sure. I joined the Marines straight out of 10th grade in 76 and missed all of the graduation exitement but I did have a different kind of graduation you could say. The 70s was a great time for sure.
Thanks for your service. You lived it well 🇺🇸
I'm class of 1980, and I enjoyed this blast of the past. I miss those days and wish I could go back. Kids of today will never enjoy their time in today's schools like we all did. :(
i was only 8 in 1976 but when i watch this old footage i never get over how thin everybody was back then!
I remember. 2nd grade. The Bicentennial.
It’s one of the things that sticks out the most to me. Take the same footage at that school in 2023 and half of the students would be overweight or obese
I liked the way the guys looked in the 60s-80s because they looked more like rock guys or alternative or stylish dorks now guys dress in sweats hoodies whatever and play horrible rap music
High fructose corn syrup was introduced to the public diet in the 80s
I too was 8 in 1976. Such beautiful and carefree days.
I wish somebody had thought of doing this at my high school. 76-77, I was a sophomore and we had a absolute blast that year !!! You don't realize it at the time, but those teen years were very special times! When you get older, you cherish your memories, and if youre lucky to still have them, you cherish your friends more !
Teen years are important and if you were to interview us back then - we’d complain how boring it is and how we couldn’t wait to get out into the working world. Bass as I ally when you are going through it you don’t realize the greatness of it and the fun you are having. In high school you are with your friends all day and get to meet girls - doesn’t sound that bad lol .. but when those times are gone they are gone
My father, who was class of 76, set me this video saying how this was HS for him. Can’t understate how different our high school experiences were.
Class of ‘76 here. Very good video, gentlemen. I still have many friends from high school and younger. We went through Elementary, Jr High, And High School together. Whitman, Einstein, and Madison. Go Warhawks!
laughing and crying at the same time. *damn i miss the 70s*
I’m only 30, but my parents went to highschool in the 70’s and this just feels like home b
What a great time to be a kid..... If only I knew then........ahhhhh
Some hilarious bits here. My favorite was the two guys getting the shakes at 3:02. Thanks for the laughs.
Class of '88... didn't change much from this. Go Dons!
I was15 that year in Tarboro, NC. I remember the crazy stuff kids tried to pull off everyday. The lunch room antics - putting small holes in someone's milk carton, stomping on ketchup and mustard packets as someone would walk by, firing off an M-80 in the bathroom...and riding the school bus was the worst! Now I'm an old man facing my 62nd year and looking forward to retirement soon! Yikes.
I remember my High School was very much like "Dazed and Confused" As a freshman in the 70's I was Mitch Kramer, too young to Drive hanging out with the older Kool Kids and experiencing my first Beer and MJ that Summer
I was 9 years old but the Uncle was class of 76 so I got to see "stuff".
Dazed and Confused nailed it down perfectly.
So fun a summer from May 28th to August 23rd, 1976. Yes I remember August 23rd as I became a big brother and school started.
Great times.
Class of 85.
We all thought we were so cool bicentennial graduates, 76 rocked
I graduated in 76. This brought back a lot of similar memories I had forgotten. Thanks so much for the fun lol! ❤
First of all, a HUGE thank you for this video! It reminds me of being 18 as well. I see The Monkeys, The 3 Stooges, The Marx brothers all represented in your antics! The filmography is so fantastic. Again, thank you.
The curtain scenes at 2:17 had me ROFL! In fact I can barely type type this because Im laughing so hard. TOOOO funny. It reminds me of a similar situation that happened to me when I was in 9th grade. A guy in art class was sitting at the back of the room wacking off with his junk hidden under the desk. It was all fun and games until the teacher realized what was going on. Ahhhh yes good times for sure! LOL
Class of 76 here, Walt Whitman HS, South Huntington, Long Island, New York. Great time to be a teen.
Wow!! That was Mr. Runyon walking into class at scene 1:21. I took his photography class 12 years later 1988. What a memory!! Thanks Mark for the video.
I really enjoyed watching this! I cracked up laughing a few times! Kids were way funnier than in the eighties when I was in school. Thank you so much for taking the time to share it with us! 💜
I graduated from that highschool in 09 and it looked exactly the same😂😂
That was awesome! The foresight and the production was timeless…well done!
This should be archived as a national treasure.
I was much younger than these kids at the time but I remember people being more whimsical and mellow ( and no, it wasn't all drugs). And the clothes! Even the light shown differently then, as strange as that sounds. High school must have been a blast back then.
I agree Daniel born in 1966, the sun was yellow back then not bright white sun simulator like today. Jesus is coming soon! Romans 10:9-10 KJV That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth that Jesus is Lord and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised Him from the dead- Thou shalt be saved! Rapture of the Church is imminent!
KIDS WERE HAPPY BACK THEN
Was in high school in 1977, and I remember those rotary pay phones.
Excellent work! The locations, The Lighting, The little Themes & Skits! The Editing, & sound track. A fine Film for 1976 The critics gave you 👍👍👍👍 Out of 5 😎
It wasnt that everyone was happy. It was that we were grounded by society and by our parents. We were not fed the lies about what victims we were or how oppressed we were. We werent the center of our parents universe. We were not worshipped by our parents. We were supporting players, not rock stars. Ironically, we were prepared for the future better than todays kids who have been coddled and overchallenged at the same time. So out of balance now.
I was class of 76 too, this looked like my high school days in Colorado, but almost everybody men and women had long hair.
Great video. Right in my wheelhouse, 1974-78. You didn't have to buy "Frampton Comes Alive." It was playing everywhere you went.
It looks like you folks lived in such a beautiful world. Not so for all. You have been blessed. Be good to one another.
I graduated high school in '76' and this really brings back so many good and bad memories lol
There was plenty of bullying too.
I love this video. It's like a time capsule. I was in 4th grade in 1977.
Haha, I loved this! I hope everyone in the video went on to have long, fulfilling lives.
Make no apologies for the content.. class of 77 here in another city...your film was great.
I just came across this; my mind blew up with memories of Arroyo High. I graduated from Marina H. S. in 75 I spent a lot of lunch breaks at Arroyo. I had a lot of friends who went there, we used to drag race at the end of Grant Ave.
I went there only four years ago and NOTHING has changed! Thanks for sharing, that was very cool to watch!
Best '70s-'80s video yearbook I've seen thus far on CZcams.
Damn the best retro feel good video!!!
Class of '77, SR BUTLER HIGH SCHOOL, Huntsville, Alabama. Thanks for the post.
We were thin back in the 70's; the clothes required it. Halter tops; tube tops; low cut pants and short shorts. Guys and girls both smoked to stay thin.
I was only 6 years old back in 1976. It is fun looking at this video of HS Students in the 70's.
Brilliant idea of taking your camera to film what you did. I bet most high school graduates from way back would have done the same.
I'm C/O 2009. Amazing this exists! Thanks for sharing!
When a highschool was a sacred place .of nurturing and love.
Mark, you captured the scenes of 76 when life really was wholesome, I remember by "M" hall we had a designated Smoking area, enjoyed your video.
I liked L and N halls better, with the orgies and weed areas.
there were no such halls. if you went to arroyo where was the weed smoking done? L and N halls didn't exist. orgies? non existent. @@ChatGPT1111
I was in the class of '72'. I enjoyed this video. Brought back a lot of great memories 😂 🎉. Kids knew how to enjoy themselves back then. 😅😅
Wow , Golden memories, very good job. Seattle 1976
Those really were still great times. My older sister was in high school then, and there was a lot of hippieness still around, and everyone wasn't so uptight and political. It was still there, to a lesser extent, in the early 80s, when I was a "Freaker".
I'm class of 1980, what is a freaker? I've never heard that term before. I was more of a jock/nerd in High School, lol.
In Australia we're just streakers 😁
There were the freaks ,stoners heads according to which part of the country you were in. 🎉
@@tonycollazorappoim guessing he means a stoner or EMO type
Takes me back to HS, 1976, Lake Forest IL Moved to CA after college with a job. Cool to see the styles, hair, halls, young faces!
That is a Great film and memory....I only wish I had a film of my high school friends. I graduated in 76 in Hawaii but I did go to Fremont junior high school in Seaside California.
I hope 250 is as fun as 200 was.
At 9 years old what a summer it was.
that was so fun to watch, great memories good for you for taking movies !!! wish i did .
Better times, for sure.
I graduated in 1977, Teresa Harness
Class of '77 Edison High School
I was in the 6th grade at this time. The best years of my life were just ahead of me.
Made me want to go back!
Well done.
the real dazed and confused ... niiiiiiiiiice :D
2:50 I can't believe those 2 girls would be over 60 now!
This is awesome. Thank you for sharing. I was born in 1976
Bro!! Thanks for this time capsule! Reminds me of my Jr High school in San Diego in the 70's!! Class of 1981!!
There’s Scott Nickerson! He was in my class!
I was 16 years young in 1976. I was at high school here in New Zealand. School certificate year. Long hair on my shoulders, flared trousers just like these young ones are wearing. I remember songs being played on the radio such as Jeans On by David Dundas and Disco Duck by Rick Dees
I was only 3 back then but remember some of the 70s along with the 80s, in many ways they were much better times.
There was plenty of bullying too.
Class of 2016. It’s crazy to see how almost all of the original building hasn’t changed. My mom cleans houses and one of her clients went to Arroyo in the 70s. His name is Rick. He says that for their senior prank they made the bathroom toilets explode using fireworks or something. He also said that some of the kids would move furniture onto the rooftops. Anyways, one this is for sure, SLZUSD is dead. Really sad and disappointing.
I think up until the 90s senior pranks were like a right of passage in high school.
Did I just witness the first ever mosh pit?
crazy watching this i’m class of 24 arroyo high
Dang, I wish I could have experienced those antics!
1:51 one of the very first mosh pits in history.
This is awesome!!! You have created a true masterpiece.
All the freedom in the world, but still understood boundaries! Completely unburdened, and we lunatics ran the asylum!
I wanna go back.
The first 3 years of High School all I thought about is getting out of there…then Senior year came and I didn’t want to leave 😢
Phone booths, that's what I'm talking bout., and they're in shape,
I was in the second class that entered Arroyo in 8th grade. Went from Fall 1981 until graduation 1986. Some good times but not always.
I was 1 year old......❤
we didn't worry about being gunned down at school .
Mt Eden H.S. 1981. Seems like the same builder for the school.
I really enjoyed this. How lucky are you to "See" yourself reliving your high school days. I graduated in 1992 and this bring back so many wonderful memories of my high school days. I love your music selection. What song is playing when you are in the scuba gear?
I graduated from high school in 1976.😂
Washington square scarborough fair great music set to young peoples lives then stories of on film memories
Hangin' out...down the street.
The same old thing...we did last week
I was 9 and destinctly remember Bicentennial fever in Brooklyn. ❤
Those teenagers back then are now senior citizens a lot of them are now grandparents
Yep I graduated in 1976. I was 18 and I'm now 66...Time flies
