THE 1986 YEARBOOK DEDICATION We the class of 1986, the hundredth class of Carey High School, dedicate sixty-second Caryatid to Douglas W. Myers. As a boy, Mr. Myers grew up on the West side of Columbus and graduated from West High School in Columbus. After High School he attended the Ohio State University. During his college years, Mr. Myers went into the army for three years and five months. One year was served in Japan with the first occupational troops. He finished college, majoring in science and social studies. He received his master's degree at Toledo University and did some additional work at Ohio State. His first teaching job was at Maumee High School. During his thirty years at Carey School, he has accomplished many things to be proud of: Early in the 1960’s he opened a classroom for the severely handicapped in a storeroom in downtown Carey. This eventually lead to Angeline School. In 1965, he was able to establish a special class in the Carey building for EMR. All of this was accomplished with little or no state support. Mr. Myers is also proud of the building program which was voted in 1961 and completed in 1963. This building program included: A new gym, an art room, a chemistry lab, a physics lab, and a vo-ag department in the high school. In the elementary building new additions included: A multi-purpose room, a media center room, and a kindergarten room. Mr. Myers' wife, Eloise recently retired from teaching. Their three children also have teaching careers. David is a teacher at Mohawk, Susan teaches in the Findlay City School system, and Lynn Dee is a kindergarten teacher at Carey. Mr. Myers retired as superintendent January 1, 1986. He accomplished many things in his years at Carey. Thank you for your time and concern at Carey. We wish you well in your retirement.

Theme: 100 Years of Change CHS has now seen 100 years come and go. During these 100 years, many changes have taken place. Changes from faculty, staff, administration, students, parents, the community, and the building itself. Through the years, all of these things have evolved and changed into what we see here today. The school has gone through many cycles of growth and decline as is common everywhere. But, through each of these changes, the school hopefully comes out for the best! This year the Caryatid, along with everything else, has also undergone some changes. Keeping in mind the theme of the book, 100 Years of Change, ” the staff hoped to present to everyone a small glimpse of the past, along with a peek into the future, and of course, an in-depth look at the year (now past and part of the CHS history!). In presenting this theme, the yearbook staff decided to work from this year’s events to past year’s events. The cover also indicates this: showing today’s mascot the Blue Devil — on the front cover, and yesteryear’s mascot — the Cuyuga Indian — on the back cover. A piece of change for every year from 1886 to 1986 connects each of the years together, as one generation of CHS graduates connects with the next years’. Also in keeping with the theme, the classes have been presented backwards. ” The eighth grade appearing first because they represent the future of CHS, then the freshmen, sophomores, and the juniors who also represent various times of the future. Finally, the seniors are presented. They appear in ivory-colored paper and sienna-colored ink to give the appearance of something old. These seniors of 1986 — though not forgotten — now belong in the history books of CHS. They have graduated and will now go forward. Perhaps they will carry on many of the longstanding traditions they have learned, or maybe they will make changes as they see the need to. Whatever path they choose, may good luck go with them. One piece of advice sticks in my mind as I write this: The only thing that is sure, is change itself.”So — here’s to the next hundred years of change at CHS! Get ready for them, because they are already here!
