Miss Cappellino — Language Jean Cappellino is more than just a teacher to the stu- dents she has come in contact with. She has befriended them all, and in so doing has made the hours spent with her in study more enjoyable. She has been an inspiration and an asset to us during our years in high school. Thank you, Miss Cappellino. ui Mr. Palleschi — Social Studies Usually there are only one or two kids that have had a teacher, and therefore are able to write about him. In this case, however, everyone knew Mr. Palleschi, and everyone wanted to write about him. He is a very popular person in this school. We think it may have something to do with his consistent presence in the cafeteria. We also thank him for being an excellent history teach- er and a patient, caring friend.

DEDICATION Friends and teachers always used to be two separate nouns, But more and more, we have seen them come together into one individual; an individual with dedication and responsibility as a teacher, and with compassion and faithfulness as a friend. On the next few pages, we'd like to show our appreciation to a few of these versatile people by dedicating this yearbook to them. These ar e just a handful of many individuals who have affected our years at East High. They cared, and they showed it. These are the kind of people who make high school life something more than just classes, lunch, and homework; and for this we are grateful. Mr. Kramer — Biology Finding a good teacher at East is an easy thing to do, but finding a teacher that has a genuine concern for the subject and the students is a bit more difficult. Anyone who has had a course with this amazing man will tell you that they giggled through it ... a student will often be found on the edge of his chair just listening to a lecture and absorbing every word. We will al- ways remember Mr. Kramer’s clear compre- hension of his students’ needs and all his finer qualities that made his courses vital and excit- ing. We thank him for a memorable year, and wish for him many more to come.

Mrs. Follett — Language We know that Mrs. Follett has often wondered how far her capabilities as a teacher have extend- ed to each of her students. But she can be assured j that her personal and inspired methods of teach- ing are what have given her such a fine reputation at East. Her enthusiasm as instructor and as a friend has helped to keep languages alive in this school. Each year her classes grow larger to ac- comodate her growing number of followers. On behalf of all her students we would like to give Mrs. Follett our warmest thanks for her unself- ish contributions to the student body; and to wish her many more years of success and good luck J that she has achieved in her years at East High. Mr. MacCracken — Industrial Arts Mr. MacCracken is a teacher very skilled in his field. His stu- dents know that they are lucky to share in his talents. Aside from his teaching schedule, he has given of his time to print special material for school functions; for instance, Thespian tickets, Mosaic material, Homeroom notices, display signs and school calendars. We thank him for doing more than his share; his unselfishness is the true root of all friendships.
