tiwanda High school had many outstanding students in sports, band, and art. These people were singled out for various awards and have entertained us. Etiwanda's dance class was no exception to the talent that has prevailed here. They were in the production, The Wiz, they have danced in many noon shows, and also had recital in the spring. The advisor of Dance, Mrs. Miranda, had two classes with approximately 75 students. All of these students sign- ed upg there were no auditions to participate. The students liked to dance mainly to rock, doing modern or jazz danc- ing. Mrs. Miranda had many outstanding students, but there were five that she called her top students: Stacy Castin, Anna Romanazzi, Rose Romanazzi, Denise Trostle, and Leigha Meyer. These students worked hard all year and it paid off. Dance class provided another reason for EHS to be proud. 3 1. Shelly Choate and Shelly Laird show their true selves. 2.

Eagles in the Spotlight he EHS Drama Department performed its Hrst major full length production entitled, The Miracle Worker. It was the true story of Helen Keller's life. Being blind and deaf she was in a dark world no one knew how to reach. It took a young Irish woman named Anne Sullivan to reach her mind and teach her how to communicate. The Previous year several one-act plays were pro- duced, but this play opened new curtains for the thes- pians to expand. In her first year at Etiwanda, Mrs. Fakatoumafi directed the play with the help of the student director, Angela Blankership. Auditions were opened to not on- ly drama club members but the entire student body. Many talented people tried out for the parts. The directors had such a difficult time casting characters that a second audition had to be held. The leading roles of Helen Keller and Anne Sullivan were taken by a Senior, Lisa Stamey, and Freshman, Katie Meeks. Also, many important people were in- volved behind the scenes. fi 4 2 1.
