Some of the major problems were those of vandalism and thievery in the school building. But these and other problems were dealt with successfully by Principal Dr. Ronald Prascher, who received his doctorate in education from the University of Northern Colorado in the summer of '75, and by Vice-Principal Mr. John Gotto. Dr. Prascher com- pleted his sixth year and Mr. Gotto his second at the end of the 75-’76 season. Serving as school board members for the ’75-'76 school year were, from left to right: Mark Richards. Jim Christiansen. Allyn Wind. Don Mitchell. Peggy Guthner. Glen Swinson and Don King. Presiding over the offices of Superintendent and Assistant of Schools for their sixth and ninth terms, were Mr. Robert Kilzer and Mr. Robert Scoville, respectively. BRUSH TEACHERS START YEAR Eleven department heads were represented through the guidance of twenty-five faculty members during the school year. Chairpersons were: Arts and Crafts-Mr. Sumner; Commercial-Mr. Kuhl; Counseling-Mrs. Van Dyke; English-Mrs. Queen; Foreign Languages-Mrs. Bloom; Library-Miss Potter; Math-Miss L. Young; Music-Mr. Harding; Physical Education-Mr. Needens; Science-Mr. Mercer: Social Studies-Mr. Woolley; Special Education-Mr. McGlynn; and Vocations-Miss Franklin. New Additions to the teaching staff were; Mr. Schrotburger-Voc. Emph.; Miss Ebel-English and Business; Miss Myeis-English; Miss Potter-Library; and Mrs. Vickers-Business.

He was one of the teachers to instruct at BHS the longest, having taught over 15 years. In the years Mr. Mitchell was at BHS, he taught Typing, Shorthand. BOE, Book- keeping, and Business machines, among others. He has also taught a couple of gen- erations of students, having instructed parents of some of the students now attending Brush High. To end Mr. Mitchell’s year of teaching, going away parties were given him fol- lowing several classes. With these parties, it is easy to say Mr. Mitchell will be missed. Mr. LeeRoy Needens Physical Education; Basketball Miss Margaret Potter Librarian Mrs. Margaret Queen English; Spanish Mr. Donal Schrotberger Special Education Miss Helen Speegle Physical Education Mr. Terrell Sumner Art; Crafts; Humanities Mr. Don Thomas Social Studies: Football Mrs. Caroline Vickers Business Mrs. Phyllis Woodward English Mr. Tom Woolley Social Studies; Journalism Miss Lorraine Young Mathematics Mrs. Jane VanDyke Counseling 11 When one enters high school as a lowly Freshman, the highest pinnacle that one strives for is to become a Senior. But there are many obstacles placed in one's way along the rocky road. The two major hindrances are the stations of Sophomore and Junior. As one goes through high school life and moves from Freshman to Sophomore and Sophomore to Junior, one may see many classes come and go. And when the pinnacle is reached and the title of Senior is won, a person looks back on those four years and sees that it is really a never-ending circle. One class comes in and another goes out. The wheels of lime roll on. 13 CENTENNIAL CLASS GRADUATES In the fall of 1975, the class of 76 began its final year at Brush High School. The year started off with the election of class offi- cers. Kory Comum was chosen to lead the seniors as president. Bob Ferguson assisted him as vice-president, while Frankie Anderson served as secretary-treasurer. The first class project the seniors undertook was the building of their Homecoming Float. A colorful creation of white napkins and crepe paper, it took second place in the Homecoming festiv- ities. By the end of the first semester, their final year was well underway. A total of 75 seniors had made the Honor and Cadet Rolls. Along with the usual college and job applications, mem- bers of the class of '76 filled out financial aid forms and took ACT tests. Visitations were set up for collegebound seniors. Under the guidance of the Senior Steering Committee, class colors and announcements were voted upon, and a class motto adopted. In preparation for graduation exercises, commence- ment speakers were auditioned and selected. Finally, all was ready. In traditional commencement ceremonies, the Centennial Class of Brush High School culminated four years of scholastic education on May 27. 1976. 117 seniors, clad in blue and gold, walked down the aisle to receive their diplomas. At the evening's end, 117 young adults left the school, ready to face their future.

Aca- demics are the things that are supposed to instruct and teach. Athletics are the physical activities that heighten and tone a body to the extreme of physical perfection. Clubs and organi- zations are the extra curricular activities that help to channel a student’s varied interests in those factions that help to promote cooperation and participation with the students. 57 STUDENT COUNCIL STEERED BY BLATT Several new innovations were sponsored by the school's legis- lature, among which, two were in accordance with the Spirit of '76. After the Pledge of Allegiance was discontinued, student movement brought it back. The reappearance of the Pledge featured recitation from a member of the Student Council. Another development of the Student Council was the Centen- nial-Bicentennial message given before each winter athletic event. Generally given by a Student Council member, the short declaration related to restoring pride in the flag. Dances were again a pan of the assembly's agenda. They sponsored Homecoming, a football victory dance and a Digger Day dance. Forming an Outstanding Student Committee and attending the State Student Council were among their activities. Mark Blatt, Kory Comum and Mrs. Lynch traveled to Fon Collins for the seminar. The Student Council backed a couple of projects to raise school spirit. In the Yuletide season a door decorating contest was staged and a poster contest was held for the District basket- ball game. VOCAL MUSIC HIGHLIGHTS EASTER SERVICE Mr. Harding's Choir section was as busy as the instrumentalists during ‘75-76. The Concert Choir performed in numerous eve- ning concern including public programs during the Christmas and Easter seasons, the latter being a Sunrise Service at the All- Saints Chapel in the Eben-Ezer Nursing Home Complex Easter morning. The Speech Department assisted the choirs4n providing religious readings for the program. The big choir also performed for the students of Thompson and Central Schools with the Select Choir, whose year consisted mainly of singing for different clubs and organziations in Brush and Fort Morgan. These included pro- grams for the The Last Squad , a group of World War 1 veterans living in Brush, and for the Northeastern Administrators, a group of high school supervisors who held their annual meeting at Bunker Hill Country Club. Section leaders this year for Select Choir were Tim Macht, Rose Mata. Ruth W'allace and Roger Brown. For the fifth year. Mr. Calvin Harding commanded the Stage. Concert, and March- ing Bands. For the Marching Band, the year started in the traditional mode as half-time performers and sports supporters. The March- ing Band was under the leadership of Barb Wagers. Brush High Drum-Majorette. During the year the Band participated in many activ- ities culminating in a Spring tour the band took in the latter part of April. The tour extended to Castlerock and Denver. Mr. Harding's Stage Band participated in many different activities akin to those done by the Select Choir. Throughout the year the Stage Band participated in the Akron Stage Band Festival; a concert for the Students at Thompson School. and in providing the music for the Eighth Grade Graduation Dance. J-STAFF WORKS ON PUBLICATIONS 21 members of J-Staff, 12 of which were new. helped in the production of the Sagebrush Reporter, the school newspaper, and the 1975- 76 Yearbook. . Tim Macht and Dave Graves, editors of the paper, had a busy year as they checked over articles and features handed in by the report- ers. Each paper covered the latest happenings and was put to bed approximately once a month, which gave the school about 10 issues throughout the year.

From the time one enters high school, one's life is filled with classes, spons, and associations that take time and energy. But in most cases, the time is gladly given and the energy is happily relin- quished . 105 EDUCATION COMES IN MANY FORMS What is school? lust a building that's been built to contain the students and to further their education? Or is it something more than that? Something more and different to each senior, junior, sophomore and freshman? Brush High School has been around since 1894. It's been moved once from the old buildings on Howard to its present location in 1971. And all those years that BHS has been around, practically every student has discovered some way to make his stay in the building memorable, even if only to him. Thanks to the different activities offered by the school and to the individual student's own ingenuity, most students can find a way to pass the time. These activities can range from participating in the music depanment to just loafing around on the lawns, weather per- mitting. Education to some BHS students is not just something in a text- book. It can be competing in one of the sports offered for both boys and girls or square dancing in P.E. For those who don't wish to join in some athletic activity there is playing a pan in one of the school plays or just . . . attending one of the school dances, formal or casual. Many of ihe courses do have oiher offerings besides lecturing in the classrooms or writing up term papers. These can be portraying some famous scientist in the science room or going on a field trip for social studies. So whatever one’s interests may be. one can find many ways to spend his time in the halls of old Brush High School. 107 Many joys and sorrows and fun and games created the memo- ries of the ’75-76 school year. Now that the year is over and past. one can take a moment to look back on the events that made the year one to remember. Although these recollections may not last forever, pictures serve as a refresher for one’s remembrances. The next few pages offer a visual reminiscence of classroom experiences. Some students worked hard, others didn’t. Some students struggled to maintain a high grade average, others didn't. But still, everyone had a sense of achievement that only school days have ever offered. SCHOOLDAYS. . . to For Freshmen. Experiences to took forward to. Having old friends And making new. Sophomores have two years behind them And two more to go. Looking for answers Beginning to know. Juniors are just Beginning to see. What they are And what they can be.

ACTIVITIES CREATE DIVERSION The day 10 day school routine can. after a while, become, to those involved, monotonous. Clubs and those activities they sponsor help to alleviate much of the tedium and add an amusing diversion to the continuing humdrum. Dances, parties, cake raffles, and ban- quets all help to divert the student's attentions from scholastic matters and serve to promote cameraderie in the clubs. Slave auctions, speech meets, comical basketball games, and festivities to help the handicapped were all activities that provided learning experiences, money for the clubs and fun for those involved. SCHOOL TR ADITIONS CARRIED ON Many things, both good and bad. happy and depressing, hap- pened in the 1975-76 school year. Students of Brush High passed through many phases, or traditions, during the year, but although they were customary, each activity of this past year was unique in its own way. Homecoming began the activities, with the annual parade and pep rally downtown in the after- noon. followed by a bonfire in the evening. Students were later able to display their talents in the Junior Class and All School Plays. The Christmas program also pro- vided a way for some to show their acting and speaking abili- ties. Another tradition of Brush High was Prom, which was spon- sored by the Juniors and given to the Seniors.Then there was the elections of the Student Council officers for the following year and last, but not least, was Graduation, tbe final fulfillment of high school traditions. All of these, together, made the 1975- 76 school year. 158 BRUSH DUMPS JULESBURG 27-0 Students prepared for traditional Homecoming activities by con- structing floats, building a bonfire and having a dance.

SPONSORED BY CONRAD’S MADEMOISELLE SHOPS ’75-76 FROM WAS ’HEAVEN’ 'These Dreams' was the theme for the '75-76 Junior-Senior Prom. Breaking the tradition of previous proms, this year a Prom King as well as a Prom Queen was crowned. Out of a field of five. Patty Pabst was chosen as Prom Queen; Becky Schilling was elected to be Senior Attendant and the remaining Queen candidates consisted of Denise Bach, Jeri Less- man and Dori Cox.

The class of '76 elected Deb Eskew to the position of Junior Attendant. The other candidates were Wendy Ruhl and Deb Mayhugh. The cafetorium was decorated to resemble heaven. Crepe paper streamers in white and shades of blue were strung from the ceiling. A 'Fog Machine' was set up to create a hazy atmosphere, and a mural depicting a mountain scene was hung on one of the walls. Coronation took place on a mock-stone bridge and two ponds, one with candles and the other with fountains completed the picture. 'The Cherry' provided the music. SPEECHES ADD SPICE TO ELECTIONS Once again the years Student Council activities concluded in the annual Spring election. This event was kicked off by the campaign speeches on elec- tion day. The purpose of the speeches was to inform the students of the various quali- fications and qualities of the nominees for the respective Student Council offices. As in years past, the students doing the speeches chose various methods to sway the public’s votes toward their candidate. These methods ranged from the serious speech that was both informative and enlightening to the comical. The humorous presentations took many forms and added a bit of spice to the proceedings. There was a visit from T.C. ” Bully”. a couple of news broad- casts. a la ’’Saturday Night”, an appearance made by a Jewish mother, and one lone hick searching for a bus to Cheyenne. After the ceremonies were concluded, students were unleashed upon the polls to vote for the candidates of their choice. A new rule was added for this election; instead of having candidates for the separate office of V. - President, it was decided that the person receiving the second largest number of votes for President would win the office of V. - Presi- dent. Officers for the ’76-77 Student Council will be Randy Freund. Presi- dent; Russ Schilling. V.-President; Stan Linker, Treasurer; and Mary Kay Blau. Secretary. STUDENTS DANCE, DANCE, DANCE MY PERSONAL ALBUM (The following pages are provided for the owners’ personal pho- tos, programs, memorabilia and autographs for the 1975-76 year. Best wishes.) The Stafi 1 175 '6 Smiles and tears, triumphs, and even defeats belonged to the stu- dents of the 75-76 school year. The student body made them; this book just gathered the pictures and information for memories sake. that no matter how the wheels of lime may change things, memories are at a finger's touch. Many memories of Brush High School are enclosed within these two covers--memories of the efforts students made to learn, to think, and to have fun. Although school might have presented many problems to some, the experiences prepared them for a life after school. Experi- ences of Brush High in 75 and 76 didn't prepare the Seniors only, to better meet and solve their problems, but they also aided the Juniors, Sophomores. Freshmen. As the year came to an end, thoughts of memorable events crowded many student's minds. At the beginning of the school year, when the wheels first began to turn, the tearing down of the old State Armory was completed. Most of the stu- dents of BHS could even remember when they went to school in the building. But that was only one phase of the year--only one event in the vastness of memories. As time passed, the Brush athletes brought recognition to the school in various sporting events. Others also helped to distinguish Brush High's competitive spirit in numerous areas, such as Forensics, FBLA, and the many FFA contests. Throughout the year, many things happened, all of which aided in the building of memories. These memo- ries were caused by changes the students went through. They were long-forgotten happenings that, with the aid of this book, have returned to remind the student body that the '75-76 Bicentennial school year was an event- ful. changing, year, and although the wheels have turned in the past, they will continue to rotate.
