As the year ends, it is obvious that the students have shown their ability to fit into a new environment, to adjust to change. What had once seemed new and strange now seems old and familiar, whether it is a teacher, classes, or peers. Throughout the year, new friendships were made and old ones were strengthened. New students found a place to call home that had once seemed strange and foreign. The community at EHS is truly like one of a family, everyone always there to support one another. Yet, just as things were becoming familiar, it is time to change again. Students must prepare for new classes, teachers and students. Seniors must be prepared to face college, a whole new phase of life.

Academics, athletics, and clubs are what made this past school year a good one at EHS. But, what made the school special were the people. EHS is like one big family, made up of a group of uniquely talented individuals. Outside of school, students took up hobbies of interest such as horseback riding, dancing, piano, and golf. These various talents, combined, gave EHS its own special personality. Just as each individual is important, so is the idea of unity within a school. Social functions such as games. dances, and parties gave students the opportunity to draw close to one another, as well as to have fun. To further enhance this closeness, students were given two retreats- Y.O. for the eighth graders and senior retreat- in which to interact in a different environment. As a result of the socializing outside of school, relations during the 8:00-3:15 schedule were greatly improved. Between the retreats, social events, and outside hobbies, students soon learned that though it is important, campus life is only One Of tb FlECEcS Of Life Not only Joe senior Scott Hulon receive enjoyment from playing the guitar, but so did the rest of school as his band.
