As the curtain rises in August, the players, the stage crew, the directors and the audience anticipate a gala performance. Everyone at St. Joe ' s, from principal to student to parent, perform in some way throughout the year. We pay tribute to this spirit of theatrics by using a thespian theme to tie our yearbooli together. The marquees on the division pages are the showbills for our year ' s performance. The theme for this year, ' ' It ' s Showtime! applies to us all because no matter what obstacles befall us, we always manage to say, ' The show must goon and somehow, it always does. As we take our final bows in May, we hope that 1986-87 has been our greatest production yet. 1 il BL H ■Hjl I K V BB w ' 2Mll Ei 1 E H B iy H Mi l ff ' ! m 1 1 H Hbbm H iklfl The 1986-87 Yearbook staff is proud to dedi- cate the 1987 Excelsior to Mr. Michael T. Boyd. In the past 10 years, he has served St. Joseph above and beyond what is expected of a teacher. Hot only has he been an inspirational history teacher, but he teaches choir which has developed into a favorite elective at St. Joe. Mis dedication to St. Jo- seph is exemplified through his involvement in the Fine Arts Department, tie has directed count- less plays, including Seven Brides for Seven Brothers, Jesus Christ Superstar, Grease, A Fun- ny Thing Happened on The Way to the Forum, and Victory or Death which he wrote, produced, and directed. Me also encourages student partici- pation in Living Mistory, in which he is actively in- volved. In addition to this, he has taken part in several movies for television including The Jane Long Story, Texas and Tennessee: A Musical Af- fair, north and South, Ft. I and II, and Gone to Texas. We, the staff, feel that recognition for his ac- complishments is long overdue. For these rea- sons and many more, we gratefully dedicate the 1986-87 Excelsior to Mr. Michael T. Boyd.

Sponsors Susan Harris Susan Harris was St. Joseph ' s A.F.S. spon- sored foreign exchange student for 1986-1987. She is from Adelaide, Australia and has already finished high school in Australia. Her host fami- ly were the Arkangels. The Arkangeis were the best family I could have asked for. St. Joe hav- ing school spirit is nothing new. So when Susan experienced a years worth of spirit, it was easy for her to say, I love the school here. The spirit really makes it a great place to be. Academics were challenging to Susan, but the one thing she learned was vocabulary. She also discovered that she can draw. That is why art was her favorite subject. At St. Joe, Susan ex- perienced more extra-curricular activities than she had at home. There were no cheerleaders, band, football, choir, and all of the clubs St. Joe has. It was an adjustment waking up at 6:30 to go to school, in Australia 1 go to school at 9:00. Q ' day I want to thank y ' all for a really great year. It has been wonderful learning all about Amer- ica and you have helped a lot! If you are ever Down Under give me a ring (call). Id love to see you again.
