The first person to start the industrial arts class at Richmond Heights High School was Mr. John Hall. He started this program in 1958 and it was his first job after college. He taught wood working, mechanical drawing, and automotives. The High School was not built until 1964, so the classes Teen-agers aren ' t so bad after all if they are given a chance. were held in what is now known as the cafeteria, the graphic arts room, and the boiler room. Hall today thinks kids do not take as much pride and craftsmenship in their work as they did twenty years ago. The stage was built with the new high school and along with it came a stage crew. Mr. Hall started the stage crew in 1964 and he has been running it ever since. Mr. Hall has great enthusiasm and pride in passing his knowledge to his students. Mr. Hall loves working with the kids and they are the reason why he has stayed at Richmond Heights High School for more than twenty years. y j p 2 o a c a Mr. Michael Papouras came to Richmond Heights High School im- mediately after college for a head wrestling coach position. In order to become head wrestling coach he had to also be head football coach. Papouras took over both jobs for two years; later he was only head wrestling coach. When the going gets tough, the tough get going. Papouras was not only athletically involved with the school, he was also a guidance counselor. In 1966 he became a counselor in the middle school. By 1973, he was in the high school. Mr. Papouras thinks that the atti- tude of the kids today has changed. He also said that jocks today do not have the same influence on their classmates as they did twenty years ago. Jocks twenty years ago were like heroes. Today the kids are not into school activities as much as in the past. The kids to- day have more non-school related activities. Mr. Papouras has been with RHHS for more than twenty years. His love for wrestling has benefited the wrestling program over the years. — W.F. 170 Faculty A-F
