A Total Experience Every morning we come and every evening we leave, often early and some- times late, and in between there is some semblance of routine. Yet, every day is different, bringing new experiences or perhaps a new perspective on the old. One day we will look back on these days and remember High School, not as the big white building on the hill, but as a time of life. We will not remember our days in terms of eight olclock to two fifteen, but as a four year experience which will remain unique in our lifetime of experiences. High school memories will be a kaliedoscope of classes, people, ac- tivities, places, ideas and emotions in a constant state of interaction. The memories of the year 1972, which will be part of our kaliedescopes, will stem from the daily events we shared together in the school, in the community, and sometimes in faraway places. Some have been captured in that one instant when time stands still . . . still . . .

When all goes well, after a noisy ride on a crowded bus, arrival time allows for brief early- morning socializing. However, on those unfortunate mornings when the alarm wins the battle, and the race for the bus is lost, the end result is one night detention. N , y4 , . .,., ggg Above: D.

This year a highly individualized reading lab, directed by a reading specialist, played a major role in the English Program. Specific reading problems were iden- tified and dealt with, through counseling, pro- grammed material and sophisticated machinery. Numerous field trips, which included visits to Old Economy, Greater Pittsburgh Airport, the University of Pittsburgh, and Carnegie Museum, became an integral part of the students experi- ences. Speed reading and basic oral communi- cations were offered for the first time as a re- sult of student interest.

Elective courses included offer- ings in power reading, journalism, drama, basic oral communications, speech, composition and literary sources. Top Left: P.

Coletta, participate in a group dis- cussion. The mathematics program functions within the philosophy that all students, at all levels of achievement, should have the opportunity to study mathematics for the duration of their high school tenure. A variety of courses are offered to provide for a wide range of individual interests and desires. Pursuance of the academic area by a stu- dent will provide him with a background that will enable him to compete formally in post high school studies. Pursuance of the non-academic area should provide the student with an adequate background to compete favorably in employment and other everyday situations where a knowledge of mathematics is required.

Under the guidance of staff members, the latest tools and techniques are employed to gather, process and evaluate information for use in solving problems which confront society. Although the future can not be predicted with accuracy, it is apparent that changes will occur and students must be prepared to meet change. Emphasis therefore is directed to learning proc- esses which will help students in the future. Specific courses for each phase have been initi- ated in an effort to help students work at their own pace. Top Cleft to rightl: L. Grimaldi, K. Oskin, P. Cost, M.

Through participation in extracurricular groups, students develop the ability to work together as well as individually. Those students who demonstrate leadership potential are usual- ly elected to positions of responsibility and afforded the opportunity to be leaders. A variety of organizations provide the students with the possibility of pursuing special interest and talents that they may havey If a number of students demonstrate an interest in a particular area, and no club represents that interest, a new organization will be formed. Students are encouraged to participate in at least two organized extracurricular activities during their high school years. Students interested in drama or journalism may participate in all-school productions, the yearbook, or the school newspaper. Civic minded students can become involved in student 0 , govemment which includes Student Council and those committees which are sub-divisions of the council: Human Relations Committee, Cur- riculum Guide Committee, and Registration Committee. Talented students in the field of music, as well as those with more interest than talent, have the opportunity to participate in several music activities-both instrumental and vocal. Service groups, which avail themselves to both school and community, offer one a chance to give of his time and energy in the service of others. Interest groups are very flexible, being formed and disbanned upon student request. The variety and flexibility of the activities program, along with the athletic program, can accommodate any student wishing to become committed, to some degree, in that aspect of East Allegheny life which lies beyond the class- room door and the 2: 15 dismissal. Student Council Plans Magazine Drive This year, the entire student body joined together to give the Student Council the support needed to carry out many of the yearls ac- tivities. Council began their year with Home- coming and Senior Day. Halloween festivities, namely a Sadie Hawkins Dance, were organized by Student Council. Costumes were the attire for the evening and the entertainment consisted of music by Rosewood, an instrumental and vocal group, and a horror movie. Student Council contributed to the spirit of the Christmas season by buying Christmas trees for the indoor court and presenting Charlie Brown's Christmas. '..K,2 - In the Spring, a student exchange was held inviting council members from neighboring schools to join the East Allegheny community for a typical school day and an evening social. Engineering the magazine drive is also credited to council, a task which required con- siderable organization. All students were asked to sell magazines. The purpose of the drive being to raise funds for landscaping the indoor and outdoor courts. The 1972 Student Council also supported other school activities when called upon to do so. Thus council members experienced an industri- ous and successful year. .si 3 ,fi . at Left: Student Council Officers: D. Hoffstot, Secretaryg B.

A Christmas party was held for the children at St. Peter's Child Department Center in Turtle Creek. F.T.A. members also attended talks by two speakers, Mr. Regrut. E.A.H.S. teacher, and Mr. Barner, a former participant of the Teachers Corps. The group sponsored two Teach-Ins, one for Senior members only. and one for all active members of the club. A tutoring program was put into operation with the help of Mr. Ehrlich, and a number of mem- bers also worked as teacher aides. The chapter participated in a national project to determine some of the causes of student unrest in America. Miss Grochal, advisor, and Patty Lurouere, president, worked closely all year in planning interesting and educational activities. Top: tfirst rowi, N. Parafenuk, C. Johnston, P. Larouere, E.

The club meets approximately once a month and participates in several field trips to dif- ferent local hospitals. They also paid a Christ- mas visit to the Home for Aged Protestant Women in Wilkinsburg. First row, left to 'rightz B. Samaras, B. Nigra, P. Ulichnie. R. Bowen, R. Szymokowiak, M. Scholl, J.

Con- certs and a trip kept the band constantly on the move and always practicing. The band journeyed to Parsippany Hills, New Jersey, as a part of an exchange program with the Parsippany Hills Viking Band. Two concerts were performed in four days. A tour was taken of nearby New York, including such landmarks as the Statue of Liberty and Rock- efeller Center. At home, the band performed concerts on the average of one every month. Playing about 24 pieces of repertoire throughout the concert season, the band can boast of an accomplish- ment seldom achieved by high school bands. Perhaps the most exciting concert being one that the Wildcat Band had the honor of sharing with Carnegie Mellon Kiltie Band of Carnegie Mellon University. The climax of the year was a breathless performance by the band at state adjudications in which they were again awarded superior ratings.

She must also maintain an attractive personal ap- pearance and possess a drill ability. This year the individual members put it all together and the result was clearly a superior drill team. Under the strong leadership of Patty Keller, the girls performed many difficult maneuvers during their half time appearances. They added a definite excitement to the 1971-72 marching season. The Sophisticats,' also lent their talents to the Year Book Show with a modern dance interpretation of Fever . Patty Keller. Captain Mnddle Semors Right M Holub G. mg J Brenzxe C Podkrajac Left P.

Girls are no longer motivated to participate by being offered points which must be accumulated in order to become a member. Girls are now chosen as a result of the leadership and ability they display in gym class. As a result of par- ticipation in as many events as possible and displaying leadership qualities, the girls may become members of the Leaders Club. The sponsors of the club are Mrs. Goff, Mrs. Rasile, and Mrs. Vukmir. Front Row-J. Stapansky, J. Sebes, R. Wallace, C. Campo, J. Schimdtke, C. Blake, N. Nesta, R. Szymkowiak. Back Row-J. Geiger, R.

Now it is gradually gaining the respect of both the school and the community. The club's purpose is to serve the school and community, in order to benefit everyone and make their work a little easier. The club is only one of a huge International network of Key Clubs united for the same purpose. It is sponsored by Mr. Regrut and has a total of 23 boys from grades 9-12. Its many projects included: clean-ups on Route 30, restoration of a bus stop, serving church dinners, planting trees at various places throughout the communities, along with car washes and donut sales for fund raising.

With the help of their faculty advisor, Mr. Ron Regrut, their efforts were rewarded and the dance was enjoyed by all who attended. Seniors further demonstrated their school spirit by donating money to the greening of the indoor court. Along with that and other organi- zations, the seniors' donation made possible the purchase of a variety of tropical plants which greatly enhanced the atmosphere of East Alle- gheny. ,aw .mf ..--w 'W Upper right: Alright Abromitis, this is the 135th bulb for this one branch.

Coordinating the educational program and serving as a resource person for the high school staff, requires a great deal of his time, nevertheless, he is always avail- able to meet with students or student groups who are in need of his counsel. Many changes have occurred in course offerings and school procedure as a result of his contact with the student body. Mr. John Liptak, Vice Principal, is well known to the student body at East Allegheny. Student discipline, attendance, and activities require his constant attention, and keeps him close to the pulse of the school. Mr. George Manis seems comfortable in his new role as acting Vice Principal. He is kept busy working with the student curriculum committee and teachers developing new ideas. Mr. Manis confers with students, teachers, counselors and parents as he guides students into appropriate courses and phases.
