 Opening The time has come for ... Breaking Into '87. All 434 students and approximately 45 faculty members broke the barriers by returning to school on August 21, 1986. after a very eventful summer. Some of the summer fun consisted of the new teen dances being held at the Lamplighter with the ever popular Bill Lacomb as the Musical DJ. The majority of the summer was taking up by holiday parties, vacations and of course, sports. This summer was not all fun for everyone. Many students and teachers were getting ready for the upcoming school year. Several different camps were attended by different organizations. Our Varsity Cheerleaders attended Cheerleading Camp at Northern II. University at Decalb. IL. At camp the girls receieved 3rd place overall out of 30 other schools attending. This 3rd place win also meant a chance to attend the Nationals. The Pride of Tigers Marching Band returned to Eastern II. for the 3rd consecutive year, to improve their marching ability. Another camp was Ball State University Journalism Workshop in Muncie, IN. by the editors of the '86-87 Janus. This camp was to improve the overall construction of a yearbook. Ending the summer were the Labor Day Festivities which meant school was near and once again facing the general routine of a student, from Homework and tests to the rewarding aspects of extra-curricular activities. Some changes were made in the faculty this year, we lost a few teachers, and also gained a couple. Some other changes were made in classes in general. Just a couple of the added classes were International Foods being added to the Home Ec. department and Business Law being added to the Business Department. One last addition was Latin being added to the English Department. The Sports Field also added new coaches to its teams. The volleyball team was coached by Lisa Card, and her husband was the new Ass’t Football Coach. Two of the girls sports have new coaches. Mr. Jim Timsic. is going to be the coach of the Girls Track and Mr. Denny Lewis is the Girls Varsity Basketball coach. There were quite a few changes made to help improve the 1986-87 school year. The changes that were made are just a start for . . . Breaking Into '87. A few team members show just how happy, fhey are about bringing the Coal Bucket HOME!
