The Crownicle

 

Welcome to the Carpentersville Memories Irving Crown High Student Newspaper Page, The Crownicle.  Our goal is to bring back some fun memories of growing up in the 1950s, 1960s, 1970s and 1980s.  

 

We bring back Memories you didn’t know you had

Did you remember The Crownicle?

The Crownicle and The Prodigal Sun

The Irving Crown High Student Newspaper had two names in the time that I remember, The Crownicle and The Prodigal Sun.  From the start of the School in 1966 until the early 70’s, and then again later in the 70’s, the name was The Crownicle.  In the early 70’s the newspaper’s name was changed to The Prodigal Sun for a few years.  Here are some of the newspapers that I am sure will bring back more than a few smiles.  A special thank you to Brad Stych, former Crownicle editor, for donating many of these.
