That's our theme for the 1987-88 yearbook- Spartan- at ECHS. It has, indeed, been a year worth recording in this history book, and the staff of the Spartan is proud to present it to the students of Em- ery High. From the first day of school we have worked to capture the events of this year. It is our hope that you will pick this book up in the fu- ture, glance through it and remem- ber vividly the many things that took place at Emery High in the 1987-88 school year. Until then, “This Is It. Enjoy the book. You all made it pos- sible. We found out early about some policy changes. When you mess with the Spartans, you're messin' with fire Mr. Swinburne opens the school year with a welcome to the students Nothing is more important during the course of the school year than homecoming. That was certainly true at Emery High this year when a wide variety of activities were of- fered to compliment the onnuol football game and dance. The school celebrated '62 Day. Red White and Blue Day, Dl Day and Black and Gold Ddy. The assembly was held prior to the parade and featured a variety of entertain- ment. High Stakes Trivial Pursuit left many with egg on their faces. There was also a yelling contest and the Dating Game. Mike conducts the slave auction, above. At right, the faces of homecoming.

If, during the course of the school year, you participated in the many activities such as Battle of the Classes, The Dating Game, home- coming, the dead bunny pep rally and others, then you took advan- tage of a student-council spon- sored event. Being a member of the student council means hard work. It involves a lot of planning and dedi- cation. This year's council members learned to work together, and they did it well. They tried to make activi- ties interesting and fun for every- one. Although most of the weekly meetings were less than serious, the council managed to put together a great year. The responsibilities of being student body president can make you grow old fast, as Mike Oliver found out early in the school year. mom council Early morning enthusiasm Steven.

Its theme was We Won't Forget If They Won't Forget. Also during the year, the juniors ordered class rings, but the major event was the Junior Prom in April. This involved countless hours of decorating for the dance as well as learning the pomenade. Juniors show off their homecoming parade entry.

The Spardettes this year have followed tradition by having early-morning prac- tices. The addition of the tur- quoise uniforms dazzled the audience and brought a new look to the group. During the summer the Spardettes at- tended a drill cdmp held at SUSC and brought home a first place trophy for their effort. The drills learned at camp gave drill mistresses Traci Jeffs, Holly Umphenour and Maxine Herzog ideas for performances during the school year. The Spardettes showed their school spirit by cheering and drilling at football and basket- ball games. They exhibited their courage when they per- formed at the state football game in sub-zero weather. At the Region 10 competition, they performed military, prop and jazz drills. Above, a jazz routine is performed by the Spardettes Right Waiting for the start of the Peach Day Parade are KaeLynn and Traci Lyn, and below left, is the end of another exciting drill. The prop drill for the Spardettes featured fans donated by the Booster Club. The rou- tine was first per- formed at an Emery basketball game and was later entered in region 10 competi- tion. I Clmtaadw 1 Emery High can be proud of its cheer- leaders. They worked everyday to learn new cheers and make posters to bring our school spirit alive. The cheerleaders attend- ed a USA Cheerleading Camp at SUSC in Cedar City. There they learned many new cheers and skits and received awards for their achievements. This year they brought back a spirit stick and superior and excellent ribbons. They performed at pep assemblies and cheered at all home games and matches — even in the bitter cold during football season. Front, left to right. Julie Stilson and Becca Cox. Next. Lorie Matson.

It is also diffi- cult to adjust, one foreign ex- change student said of her exper- ience in coming to Emery High for the 1987-88 school year. Four stu- dents came from foreign countries to live in rural Utah and attend Em- ery High. Each was well received and had little trouble getting in- volved. These students are Sara Dalfelt of Sweden, Raquel Castro of Spain, and Jetta Schwieger and Ja- cob Christensen of Denmark.

Students were sponsored by the American Legion and Legion Auxiliary. SUSC hosted the week- long activities during the summer. These students participated in var- ious government duties. It was a fun-filled week where lasting friend- ships were made. They were given the opportunity to learn more about our government from a first-hand vantage point.

The FHA had a very busy year. It started with a float for the home- coming parade. The FHA chapter received the plaque of Best Use of Theme for their float. It also spon- sored the girls' choice dance. The theme was In My Dreams by REO Speed wagon. It was a great suc- cess. The family of the year was the Jon Tolman family of Castle Dale. In April the group attended the state convention and had a lot of fun and received many awards. Members also participated in many communi- ty activities. The organization has had a lot of fun and success this year. FHA was led by officers and advisor: Mary Ann Jorgensen, advi- sor; Karleen Williams, president; Adela Jorgensen, vice president; Vicki Gist, 2nd vice president; Jennie Lyn Jeffs, secretary; Rachael Keele, treasurer; Amy Enke, and Peggy Jo- hansen, historians; Melissa Hayward and Marlene Curtis, reporters; Jenni- fer Brown, membership commission- er; Jessica Jorgenson and Aimee Fill- more, peer educator chairwomen.

The FFA helps young people develope leadership skills and responsibility. The Emery chapter competed in many contests this school year. Members also competed in areas like public speaking, proficiency awards and also in the state farmer category. Five members attended the national convention in Kansas City, Mo. Besides dealing with live- stock and crops, FFA members learn how to run a meeting and conduct business. Our chapter officers were led by a female president, Jennifer Anderson. The chapter worked hard on the Sweetheart activities, and generally tried hard to make this a great year. FFA officers this year are. front row, left to right.

The all-female staff be- gan the year with plans of publishing a spring book, something that hasn't been done at Emery High in some time. Yearbook people are strange but dedicated. They have to be to finish the demanding task of putting together this book. Editor Jennifer Anderson accepted the challenge and led the way through the deadlines, early morn- ing and late-night sessions and hundreds of photos and stacks of layout sheets and copy. Also coming to the staff this year was Larry W. Davis, advisor. The Spartan was published by Jostens Publishing Company while the class photos were done by Life- touch Studios.

It started in the 1982- 83 school year with a small member- ship of eight students. The club now has grown both in size as well as in its purpose. The club now has a mem- bership of 70 students and is one of the active clubs at ECHS. The primary purpose of the club is to promote the idea of Youth Help- ing Youth. The club does a lot of work in the area of trying to prevent the use and misuse of drugs and al- cohol by Emery County teenagers. These students, however, do not work only in this area; they also work in the area of relationships, depres- sion, stress, grades, suicide, and teenage pregnancy. The students are trained to be good listeners NOT junior counselors and for this reason they sometimes refer their friends to appropriate professionals. The teens do prepare and teach lessons about self-es- teem, choices, and they sponsor an alcohol and drug-free essay and poster contest, an alcohol and drug prevention week, an alcohol and drug-free graduation party, put on plays, talent shows, and numerous other events to encourage getting high on oneself. These students are trained by at- tending a three-day summer retreat in the mountains, by attending workshops and conferences around Utah and by special training sessions in the high school.

PEER HELPERS This year the band started oft with a new instructor, Randy Orwin, and a large group of new sophomore students, and with a membership of well over 70 students this became quite a challenge. Between the jazz band, the symphonic band, the pep band, and the marching band a lot has been accomplished this year. These bands have entertained us at our homecoming parade, the Peach Days Parade, the annual Christmas concert, and at a number of various school sports and activi- ties. They also were invited to play at the Freedom Bowl in California, in Washington D.C.. at the Utah State Festival, and in the Durango Festival. Instructor Randy Orwin speaks at the Christmas Concert. Emery County High School's orchestra has been the best in Utah in recent years. Shuree Thomas plays for the crowd. Karen. Richard, and Travis practice their trumpet solo.

Trombones patiently await their part, above Many Emery High School students took part in the traditional Lythgoe assembly. Those who participated fell into a deep hypnotic sleep. During this sleep Lythgoe gained control of his subjects' subconscious minds. During the day assembly he demon- strated the three levels of hypnosis, then during the night performance he demon- strated the ability to take his subjects back in time and also into the future. He also had each subject become the personality of his her favorite person. This year he helped our football players gain a positive state of mind for the upcoming games.

C uei Each year the biggest battle among classes at Emery High is The Battle of the Classes. Students gathered just before the Christmas break to compete in a variety of activities, hoping to outpoint the other classes. This year, the juniors were returning champions, but the sophomores and seniors had other ideas. After competition in several relays, free-throw shooting, pop drinking, penny stacking, lip sync, hot-dog eating, and other fun-filled events, the seniors came out on top while the juniors were second and the sophomores fin- ished in third. Also, the student council-spon- sored event collected nearly $200 for Sub For Santa. The seniors pulled it together to prove who rules the school. Brandon tries to direct Stephanie for the juniors.

The Emery High football team did this year what no other Spartan football team has ever done. It took state! The Spartans not only became the pride of the school, but of the entire area. After winning the region title with a victory over Millard, the Spartans came on in the tournament to defeat Union, San Juan and Grantsville to set up the title match, again, with Millard. On a cold, windy day in Orem, the Spartans dominat- ed the Eagles and brought the title to Emery County High with a 23-0 win.

Emery's J.V. football team had a great year by scoring 215 points to its opponent's 20. The Spartans were undefeated, beating Juab, North Sanpete, Delta, Richfield, Manti, South Sevier, and Millard, Making them the first Emery J.V. team to have a perfect sea- son. The JV's winning attitude is expected to carry over to the varsity program in the following years. The junior varsity is coached by Neal Peacock, Dean Nelson, and Tom Davis. Steven Gordon blocks for Chris Wilson in a J.V. game Coach Kent Bunderson and the Lady Spartan Volleyball team opened the season with high hopes. Their goal was to make it into the 2A state volleyball tournament in Octo- ber. With a win over Richfield in the Region 10 tournament, the Lady Spartans did, indeed, earn a spot in the state meet. In the first round, Emery faced Morgan and lost a very tough match, two games to one. It ended the season for Emery, but the team won several big games along the way to the state tournament. Overall, Emery finished with a 4-18 record while the JV, un- der the direction of coach Nancy Martinez, finished with a 10-4 re- cord. The highlight of the junior varsi- ty season was a win over Delta in the final match of the season. Pom Mecham stretches for the kill. Gala flies into a set.

The team held second place most of the season, just a game behind Delta. Highlights of the season in- cluded wins at Manti and at home against Richfield.

Also, Emery managed to win close games on the road against Manti and Delta while blowing through the opponents at home.

We've seen them nearly ev- ery day during the school year, and at times they've been taken for granted. But when we look back at the school year, we will all have fond memories of the Emery County High School faculty. They've touched our lives in many ways, and we leave this school at the end of the school year as better people because of what our teachers have given us. In lighter moments, they've made us laugh; in more serious moments, they've made us think. They've been our friends, our leaders, our inspiration, our— teachers.

FACULTY May Jorgensen Sandy Needham Nearly everything that goes on in our school revolves around the office. There, two people make up the heart of the school day- May Jorgen- sen and Sandy Needham. These two share enormous re- sponsibilites from money man- agement to attendance. In addition, they work out a vari- ety of problems for students, faculty and administration on a daily basis. We hear them over the intercom, and we see them buried under piles of pa- perwork. Sandy and May are also avid supporters of school activities and take pride in be- ing associated with Emery High. They enjoy their work here, and we are fortunate to have them. 10b ■ CECRETARIEb ?

Sometimes we take for granted all the work the custodians and clas- sified personnel of our school do each day to make our campus as comfortable as possible. Through- out the school year, these people have mowed lawns, shoveled snow, cleaned hallways and rooms, cleaned up after games and dances, unjammed lockers, and generally have been there when we needed them. Their work some- times goes unnoticed but only be- cause they do such a good job. They have made our school a place we can all be proud of.

Not only is it the gathering place for school lunch, it also serves as a classroom, a theater, a dance hall, a room for displays and workshops, and a place for testing. The lunch ladies brighten the cafeteria each day with welcoming smiles and a nutri- tious meal. In addition to the regular meal, school lunch offers a salad bar, hamburgers and fries, and the special of the day. Under the direc- tion of Virginia Nelson, the lunch staff is an important part of our school.

One trend was the resurgence of spirit.

KaeLynn Jensen couldn't resist getting a clos- er look at Quinton Powell and Paul Pulli trends Spuds Mackenzie T-shirts became a trend at Emery High in 1987-88.
