jj in1 Edwardsville High School has a history of excellence and is strong in tradition. This year continues that excellence and tradition with accomplishments in academic as well as extra curricular activities. The class of 1988 witnessed changes throughout their four years at EHS. This year began with changes in the smoking policy and the residency policy. Changes also occurred with revision of the English, Health, and Physical Education curricula as well as remodeling the science laboratories. The class of 1988 has left its impression. They have made their splash! — George Halsey EHS Principal 4 STUDENT LIFE

No: late nights. suntans, jams, vacations or fun: It’s not summer anymore Summer is a time for parties, fun and NO SCHOOL, but every year students all across America make one of the most difficult transitions — going back to school. No one quite understands why it is so difficult to make this back-to-school transition. Maybe it is the thought of the boring ride on the bus to school or sitting in class after class or the memory of homework. Could it be that school is just no fun?? OF COURSE NOT! Where else can you be updated about who is dating whom? Where else do you get to dress up in crazy costumes for Spirit Week? Where else do you squeeze talking to friends into only 5 minutes between classes, and get almost 2 weeks vacation every Christmas? But on the negative side, where else do you get to take the dreaded final exams TWICE a year? Where else can you get after-schools and inschools, AND get only a half hour for lunch! Actually school’s not THAT bad — it’s the switch from freedom to “rules” that’s so hard. Well, it’s almost over for you SENIORS, but it’s only beginning for the FRESHMEN! Just enjoy it while you can because you’ll treasure these times forever! 6 STUDENT LIFE
