Text from Pages 1 - 96 of the 1987 volume:

Theme We are not confined by our world; we have a globe and will have yet another. We do not travel unknowingly; we have our teachers who guide us. We do not go to school alone; we have our classmates. We cannot get to God and heaven on our own; we need help from others along the way. We do not study and work as isolated units; we have the flint and goad of our fellow students. Our clubs are not monologues; they have members who act together. We cannot play sports alone; we have united, spirited teams. We are not alone: We meet people, we care. We Are Persons Making History . . . At Boyle High School. Historical Note On Boyle High School Bishop Boyle High School was officially established by the Most Reverend John J. Wright, Bishop of Pittsburgh, April 13, 1962. It was founded as a district diocesan school, including the parishes in Homestead, West Homestead, Munhall, West Mifflin, Whitaker, and Hays. By previous agreement of the pastors within the district, the school was located in the building previously known as Saint Mary Magdalene Grade School at 120 East Ninth Avenue, Homestead. The building was renovated, and now houses educational facilities of the highest calber, including twenty classrooms, physics and biology laboratories, library, gymnasium with accompanying shower and locker rooms, auditorium, guidance offices and health room. A new and complete kitchen and cafeteria were installed. The high school opened September 4, 1962, with approximately 160 ninth grade students. In 1965, the name was changed to Boyle High School. Biographical Note Our school is named in honor of Hugh Charles Boyle, the Sixth Bishop of Pittsburgh. Bishop Boyle was born in Johnstown, Pennsylvania, on October 8,1873. When fifteen years of age and in the first year at college, he lost nine members of his family of twelve, in the Johnstown flood of May 31,1889. He was ordained on July 2,1889, at St. Vincent Seminary. His first appointment was to St. Aloysius Church, Wilmerding. In 1903, he was assigned as curate to St. Paul's Cathedral. From 1909 to 1916, he served as superintendent of schools under Bishop Canevin. In 1916, Father Boyle became the pastor of St. Mary Magdalene's Parish in Homestead, this city had been the center of the history of American Labor for years. For five years during the first World War and its aftermath of industrial strife, he successfully managed this parish with its varied spiritual and social responsibilities. Father Boyle was consecrated Bishop of Pittsburgh on June 29,1921. His work for education in the diocese, es- pecially at the secondary level, is perhaps the primary testimony to his greatness, and thus he receives proper and fitting acclaim in having our school named for him. It was under his direct guidance that the Diocese of Pittsburgh formally began to achieve its remarkable status in the realm of education. Together with the late Monsignor Thomas J. Quigley, Bishop Boyle carefully planned and executed the establishment of some of the finest secondary schools in the state. At his death in December, 1950, Bishop Boyle unknowingly held claim to have founded the tradition of education which, faithfully continued and expanded by his two episcopal successors and the Diocesan Office, has marked the Diocese of Pittsburgh as a standard of educational excellence throughout the United States. Boyle High School is privileged by its name and by its opportunity to join that tradition. Evolution Of The Ununiform.

On the day of the launch, each stu- dent received a black or gold balloon with his or her name and address on it. The students hoped someone would respond after finding it. Fol- lowing the balloon release, the stu- dents headed for the gym for a boys vs. girls basketball game. Although no pictures were available, one of the highlights of the game was Rafi Gelpi losing his pants to some angry girls. Up, up, and away! Angie and Mac before the big game.

This goal re- mained foremost in the eyes of the class leaders throughout the successful year. A new method of de- termining Leaders Club members rendered a cross-section of class members and helped involve more people. Meetings were open to all students. The idea of extensive partici- pation was visible in such school activities as the Freshman initiation, uniform revision. Senior recognition, food drives, and of course the Ju- nior-Senior Prom. The class members appreci- ated the guidance of their advisors, Mr. Thomas, Ms. Harrigan, and Mr. Stanczak. The officers for the 1986-87 school year were Darren Lorh, Cathy McKinney, Lori Sanoszek, and Ed Keegan. 31 Above: Gary catches up on some of last year's read- ing. Above right: Laura's future.
