HIGHLAND 1973 Administration and the Board of Education The job of the Highland Board of Education is to determine the guidelines followed by our four schools and to regulate the finances of the system. Because of added funds from the state this year, they were able to expand the size of our staff, thereby providing our students with a better opportunity for individualized instruc- tion. The connecting links in our district were Mr. Vermillion and Mr. Clevidence. They worked in close contact with both the board and the admin- istrators of each building, who in turn conveyed information to and from the community and our faculty. Mr. Vermillion takes a perceptive look toward the Board at a Monday night meeting. 12 Highland’s Board of Education at work. work for the betterment of our schools gp A major issue handled by the Board is bus routes. Mr. Clevidence confers with Mrs. Perram, a bus driver. Our new Assistant Superintendent of Schools this year is Mr. Art Clevidence. Although he is filling a new position, he is not new to the district. He taught at Hinckley Elementary School for two years and at the high school and Granger for two each. Then he became princi- pal at Hinckley, where he stayed for eight years. Most recently Mr. Clevidence was curricu- lum director in the Brunswick City Schools. This year his responsibilities are Federal programs, checking on buildings and grounds, and the transportation of students to and from school. 13 ETO es i) Administration and Guidance Counselors Deby Botz and Gary Henry take time out to get acquainted with Mr. Breese. Our new principal, Mr. John Breese, also came to us from Brunswick. His innovative mind and determination sparkled others to the “chal- lenge of change”, so that we worked together to bring about many successful alterations of vital school operations. Mr. Brenner’s headquarters were located in our newly named Unit Office, which served as a contact center between students and adminis- tration. His position as Unit Principal involved the organization of our daily school activities in addition to the supervision of the extra-curricular activities. Mr. Breese is often found in conference with members of the faculty, student body and community. Mr. John S. Breese, Principal strive to serve the students Mr. Jack Heim, Guidance Counselor Mrs. Dzur, Mr. Breese and Mr. Brenner discuss the role Highland will play in the new Joint Vocational School. Our guidance department took on an active role in school life this year as it offered indi- vidual and group counseling sessions, college and vocational guidance, and countless place- ment and aptitude tests. Mrs. Dzur and Mr. Heim were constantly kept occupied by the large num- ber of students making use of the guidance center. is a RE ere ee ee The school district’s finances are under the care of Mrs. Brunskill. She is the clerk of the Board of Education, while Mrs. Webster, who works in the same office, is treasurer of the high school. The secretary of the Unit Office, Mrs. Winter, handles all business which students bring to the office and channels it to the proper person. To help her Mrs. Winter has a staff of girls who do office work during study halls. Mrs. Babcock can be found in the Adminis- trative Office. Most faculty affairs go through her to Mr. Breese and the superintendent's office. She is also in charge of requisitioning school materials.

Mrs. South, Mrs. Anderson and their aides now distribute, collect and keep records of textbooks. They also keep all lost and found textbooks and sell student workbooks. This year the staff is organizing a booklet for the teachers, listing the available materials for use in their classrooms.

Sophomores read the recently-published zi comedy novel M A S H and discussed it as they read. American authors of short stories and novels were subjects investigated by junior litera- ture classes, while such things as creative writ- ing, comparisons and contrasts, and research papers were stressed with the student as the author in the senior English classes. Students ask for assistance from Miss Mrs. Heath reviews a book of Chiaramonte poetry for her class.

Typing became a useful skill. In the math department Algebra students studied and worked out equations and many ways of factoring under Mrs. Neff. She also taught geometry. Mr. Clifford instructed students in algebra and modern analysis. Mrs. Campbell and Nancy Mudd correct Nancy’s typing errors. Miss Carman shows Lou Ann Hier how to operate some business machinery. 20 in business, math and social science Robert Keck Robert Cutler i New to the Social Science Department this year was Mr. Damon Cranz, who taught Soci- ology in the modern way.

The art department, supervised by Mrs. Melrose, had many student entries in the Scholastic Arts Show. Mrs. Melrose smiles on a winner. 23 ee ee Lab experiments and working out their own equations were among many of the fundamen- tals of chemistry taught by Mr. Temple this year. Dissection and bacteria study were some of the things learned by biology students from Miss Friedstrom. A general introduction to the many fields of science including electricity, chemical reactions, and studies of the universe was taught by Mr. Becker. He also taught a senior physics class that probed into various physics books, lab experiments, and books on religion, philosophy and psychology. The cafeteria cooks were certainly busy this year cooking for both the junior and senior high schools. Favorites were ravioli, hamburgers, and pizza.

They also played volleyball and basketball. Students in the work-study group sold refresh- ments during football games to develop skills in active work experience.

The 1973 Varsity Hornets, coached by Mr. Clif- ford, were a potentially great team, consisting mostly of seniors. Their 15-8 final record was far from being indicative of their talents. Of the last eight games lost, five were lost by only one run. During the season, the team beat all county teams except Black River at least once. High points of the season were the Sectional victory over Akron St. Vincent, and the Medina County Tournament. For the third year in a row, High- land lost the final game to place second in the { tournament.

On Friday night, September 29, 1972, both Queen Leslie Cordle and the skies “reigned” on our victory over Columbia. Queen Leslie and her court were presented on the field with their fathers before the game. Football co-captains Dan Farsworth and Jeff Parker crowned Leslie and gave her a football autographed by the team and the coaches. The Hornets waded through six inches of water on the field as they scored three touchdowns and one conversion. Columbia’s team was held score- less by our staunch defense. A few drenched fans remained to see the final moments of our 20-0 homecoming win over Columbia. Highland Senior Bob Ritcher goes for a touchdown during the Homecoming Game with Columbia.

The escapades of a “typical’’ New York family of six in the early 1900 era is the basis for the Junior Class presentation this year, Life With Father. Cliff Feightner plays the temper- mental father who tries to rule his family and be king of his castle. His patient wife, Rene Roach, humors him and tames his uncontrollable temper. In this comedy, an aunt and cousin (Erin Scally and Jenny Depas) visit the Day family which results in a number of humorous episodes including a budding relationship between Brian Avery and Jenny. When brothers Brian and Pat Kelly sell a cure-all remedy to earn money, this causes another uproar. They give some to their mother when she becomes ill and the medicine only makes her worse. She recovers quickly when Father Cliff promises to b e baptized, something he always detested doing.

Life and excite- ment are not over as the Seniors’ high school years draw to a close, but the doors to oppor- tunities are thrown wide open for those who decide to take them. The activities of Friday afternoon were limited to bowling as the most popular since the spring rains made the golfing outdoors a little difficult. Friday evening the traditional catered banquet was served in the decorated gym. It deviated from its usual appearance to become a beautiful park in the springtime. Saturday night brought handsomely dressed couples in tuxedos and long, flowing dresses. The band, The Rats, was not traditional, however, but they did some great rock in the opinion of many people. It was not appropriate to prom dancing so the band put on some slow Beatie tapes for those who liked closer dancing. Mr. Keck shows off his pinball skills to Rich Chodera and Bob Hazafi. Couples get the feeling of togetherness dancing at the prom. Edie Snell and her date get in a fast dance during the evening.
