Fifty years of Euclid High School. Way back in the Fall of 1949 the first students entered Euclid's halls. What an exciting experience for those new students. Everything was brand new and big. It was not as large then as it is now but it was still a very impressive building. Nine months later the first volume of the Euclidian was delivered. Now, fifty years later the fiftieth volume of the Euclidian was delivered. Many things have changed during those fifty years but one thing still remained constant. Euclid was committed to taking its students and giving them a chance to get the best education that they could get. The building has shown some signs of aging but the education process has not diminished.

Things were a lot different fifty years ago. Hair styles were different. Clothes looked a lot different. Students were exposed to a multitude of different stimuli. One thing was not different. The students walking through Euclid's halls in 1949 were about the same age as the students walking through her halls now. Students do different things than they did fifty years ago, but they still have a life in and out of school and they still belong to clubs and activities and organizations. Euclid still gave students a chance to prepare for the rest of their lives.

HOMECOMING

GAME

Homecoming week began on October 5 which Student Council declared as Hat Day. Tuesday was Mismatch Day, Wednesday was Jersey Day and Thursday was Blue and Gold Day. Many students partici- pated in these activities leading up to the Homecoming game with Mentor. Euclid struggled throughout the game and was only ahead by a score of 13-12 with less than six minutes left in the game. After that, Hassan Brown intercepted a Mentor pass and returned it 22 yards for a touchdown that made the final score 20-12. Euclid only gained 32 rushing yards and the only way they were able to stay in the game was to cause Mentor to commit five turnovers in the second half. The game turned out to be a good beginning for the Homecoming week- end.

On Saturday evening, October 10, 1998, after a week of pep rallies, Homecoming Court elections, and displays of school spirit, the Euclid High Student Council held its annual Homecoming dance. Over 700 students attended the enchanted evening in Paris gala. The E-Room had been decorated with gorgeous French paraphernalia and a D.J. played all of the student bodies favorite hits. The Homecoming was originally announced during halftime the previous evening but they were again introduced at the dance. Mercedes Ivey was the sophomore attendant, Julie Stobierski the junior attendant, Suzanne Lucas was Homecoming Queen and Cordell Morris was King. All were present and showing their school spirit. All who attended had a fantastic night which created some great memories that would last forever.

Fifty years ago, seniors entered their first and last year at Euclid high school. Euclid High School was a brand new building that fifty years later would hold many memories for many thousands of students. As this year's seniors looked back on their graduation, they experienced many emotions. Though they may feel that way, they must not forget the changes they've gone through, growing in different ways, the times of celebration and the times they would rather forget. Emotionally students grew and learned how to love, have faith, control hatred, and even trust.

By the time a student became a senior they had a good under standing of the workings of their school. Seniors were the most knowledgeable and understanding of the workings of Euclid High School. Seniors always had the highest level of exper- tise in the high school. The class of 1999 was no exception. Many of them were hard working individuals who were doing their best to prepare themselves for the years ahead. Fifty years ago the first class graduated from Euclid High School well prepared for the world they were about to enter. The class of 1999 was also ready for the world they were about to enter.

SUMMER TRAVELING

Euclid students spent time in Germany

Senior Lisa Basalla and junior Sara Pfahl had a chance of a life time during the summer of 1998 when they were able to spend two weeks in Germany. They stayed with the Deiseroth family in a village near the city of Kassel. Lisa and Sara already knew the brother Andreas and sister Sandra. Both had been in Euclid several years ago and had stayed with Sara's family. Sara and Lisa remained good friends with Andreas and Sandra during that time. They finally took the opportu- nity to visit their German friends on Wednesday, June 24. During their stay, they experienced the culture firsthand. Neither Sara nor Lisa knew any German, yet for the most part they were able to communicate. Sara and Lisa saw four exquisite places and a famous German circus Flic Flac. During their stay, they spent a weekend in a youth hostel in Berlin. They were fascinated by all the history that surrounded them. They were able to walk along parts of the Berlin Wall and went to the Check Point Charlie Museum. Besides all the impres- sive structures, the German people in general were extremely friendly and kind. Lisa and Sara look forward to visiting again sometime in the future. -Lisa Basalla

HOW MANY YEARS HAVE YOU BEEN IN THE EUCLID SCHOOL

SYSTEM?

A poll was distributed to all seniors at the beginning of the year in which they were asked if they had attended Euclid schools all of their lives. Most students had not but the percentages were about the same as the previous year. They were then asked how many years they had attended Euclid schools. These percentages were very similar to the previous year's with the exception of those attending four years where the class of 1999 had a much higher percentage(39.7%) than the class of 1998(18.5%).

CALL YOUR HOUSE YOUR HOME? Most seniors live in a house

In the same survey, seniors were asked if they lived in a house. By far most of them replied that they did and the percentages were about the same as the previous year showing that most of the seniors were attached to the Euclid community through their place of living.

Seniors were asked whether or now they were planning on going to college. More than 90% of the responding students replied that they were intending on going to college. This is a little more that the percentage from last year. It shows that most seniors realize the importance of getting a college education.

SENIORS INVOLVED IN ACTIVITIES

For many students school began at 7:40 am and ended at 2:25 pm and the time before and after that was devoted to a job or themselves. But for many Euclid students school began before 7:40 am or continued after 2:25 pm if they were involved in extracurricular activities. Many students were involved in sports which were played after school but were often practiced before school while many others participated in some of the many club or music groups that were available to anyone who wanted to participate. If someone had an interest there was probably some organization at Euclid that could fulfill their interest.

I'LL DO THE DRIVING

Students have been coming to Euclid High School for fifty years. Some students walk, some come by bus and others come by car. A poll of seniors asked if they came to school in a car and 74 per cent said that they did. They were then asked if they did the driving and 57 per cent said that they did. These results were very similar to the results of a similar pole the previous year.

DO YOU HAVE A PART-TIME JOB?

HOW MANY HOURS PER WEEK?

WORKING HARD

Most seniors have a job after school

One very big difference between high school life in the nineties and life fifty years ago was the number of students that had after-school jobs. In 1949 students would go home from school and do homework or work around the house or play with their friends. In the 1990's having a job was the norm and more than 75 per cent of the seniors had jobs and many underclassmen also had jobs. The percent- age of seniors who had jobs was very similar to the percentage of seniors who had jobs in the previous year. Most seniors worked about 10 to 30 hours per week which meant that they were working during the week as well as on the weekend.

Ho and Rachel Dixon about the merits of having a

I*

Almost every sport you want to play is at Euclid. Whether you want it to be your ticket to college or just something to do everyday after school, at Euclid there was a sport for you. Sports here gave the students an opportunity to be part of a team and meet many new friends. Euclid had been compet- ing in the Greater Cleveland Conference for the past two decades but this year changed as Euclid reentered the Lake Erie League upon the abandonment of the G.C.C. This led to longer bus trips since many of the L.E.L. schools are further away.

TOUGHER SCHEDULE

Football still did well after entering L.E.L.

The Euclid Panther football team had another exciting season as they entered the Lake Erie League and finished with an overall record of 7-3 and 4-2 in the Lake division of the L.E.L. The Panthers did not have the flashy runners of past years but they did have a lot of talented players and a good solid offensive and defensive line. They would have made the playoffs if it weren't for an upset loss to Lakewood. They finished in a tie for second place with Mentor. Euclid had a good passing attack to go along with its

running game. Van Monroe completed 62 out of 133 passes for a 46.6% completion record. His completions gained 1051 yards and scored 1 1 touchdowns. He had 6 passes intercepted. Brandon Richardson and Chris Harrell both finished the season with 22 catches apiece with over 400 yards gained each. Hassan Brown and Chris Harrell each got three interceptions for the season. The running game was led by Brandon Linton who gained 824 yards on 144 carries for a 5.7 yard per carry average.

Dorian Goulde also carried 70 times and gained 330 yards for a 4.7 yard average. Brandon Richardson, Amin Harville, Dorian Goulde and Mario Marusic were all named to the News Herald First Team while Van Monroe, Brandon, Chris Harrell, and Mike Belanich were all named to the News Herald Second Team. Special Mention was given to Rick Glavan and Tommie Virgies. The team had many exciting moments and the season was enjoyable for all.

LOVING IT

Girl's tennis has best season in more than a decade

The change of scenery from the G.C.C. to the L.E.L. this year turned the Euclid varsity girls' tennis team around. Returning lettermen and improved underclassmen all contributed to the team, which had more experience than in past years. Coached by Pete Swope, this was the first time in over a decade that the team was able to achieve double digit victories. Last year's overall record of 3-16 was a far cry from the 1 2-6 record that this years team achieved. The varsity team became a respectable team in the L.E.L. This reputation would be challenged the following year when three starting seniors leave, and underclassmen must stem up and fill their positions. -Christine Metti

A COUPLE OF STARS

Euclid wrestling again suffered from enough good wrestlers to make up a strong team. Because of that several weight classes had to be forfeited at their matches which led to a losing season. There were several good wrestlers, however. Mike Belanich was chosen as the News Herald Player of the Week for January 29. For that week, Mike, who wrestled heavyweight, recorded four pins, all in less than one minute. At the time he was 12-1 with nine pins. Other good Euclid wrestlers were Dave D'Amico, Sean O'Brien, Kevin Carse and Mike Grewatsch.

Cross country spends a lot of time on the trails

The boy's cross country team had a successful season as they entered the L.E.L. and finished in fourth place in the conference. The team consisted of many dedicated runners who devoted much time and effort in training. The best runner was Mike Miklavcic who was able to finish in the top one or two position in most of the races and went to the State finals and finished 5 1 st. Mike was named to the News Herald First Team for his accomplishments.

Mike Miklavcic won most of the events that he entered.

The girls suffered from lack of participation since they had only a couple of girls more than the five needed to participate in a race. The girls worked hard but there was no one that really stood out and no one was able to get to the State finals.

Boy's basketball had some great players

The boy's basketball team had a lot of talent but found themselves in a much tougher league when they entered the L.E.L. Tough teams from Shaker and Cleveland Heights dominated the league and Euclid had to settle for a tie for third with Mentor. The team had many high points, one of which was senior, Emmanuel Smith who put up some of the most impressive statistics of anyone in the area and was considered by many to be the premier high school player in the entire area. In his best game he scored 45 points and averaged more than 27 points per game which was the highest in the area. He also ranked high in three point shots, rebounding and steals. The Euclid team had a lot of playmakers that made the game enjoy- able. The team was coached by Doc Daugherty.

This year threw the girls soccer team into surprise. Starting slow and short of a coach during preseason the L.E.L shocked them with the new skills needed. The girls worked well with the new coaching system of duo head coaches, Felicia Rozotti and Dick Homovek but still finished the season with a 5-9-2 record. Every game this year was close and depended on the last five minutes. We all will remember the way the team pulled together for the first game with North. Melissa Waina was awarded on the News Herald first team and Sandra Mowery on their second team honorable mentions went to Rebecca Waina and Mary Tisi. The post season could have been longer but with all of the new changes the season ended quickly

GOOD DEFENSE

Panther hockey team skates through aj

The Euclid Panther Varsity Hockey Team had another great season making it to the Baron Cup Finals. It wasn't easy for the Panthers to get there though. In the beginning of the season the Panthers were stricken by several injuries that took five players off the ice but in no time the players were back and ready to play. They played a great regular season and was able to play in the Baron Cup Finals where they lost a tough game but got a highly respectable second place. The team was coached by Mr. Dick Homovec and Mr. Frank Soltesz. -Brett Stanic

Indoor Track team has another good

The Indoor Track team began it; season in early February on its quest to prepare the athletes for another successful outdoor track season. Students participated in track and field events such as races, relays, high jumping, hurdles, triple jump, and shot put. Even though the weather outside was cold and dreary, the athletes were inside developing their skills for the future. The boy's team was coached by Mr. Tom Gibbons and Mr. Orlando Mason while the girl's team was coached by Mr. Pete Schwenke and Mr. Dick York.

STROKING THROUGH

Both boys and girls teams struggled

There was plenty of depth in the pool but there wasn't enough depth on the boy's and girl's swim teams which led to a year of less than average accomplishments. One bright spot for the boys was Michael MikJavcic who was able to reach the District competition. The team was coached by Mr. Joe Rodriguez.

A few of the ladies were able to get to Districts. Rachel Lewand in the 1 00 fly, Kirsten Knauss in the 100 backstroke and the 200 free relay of Jessica Scott, Rachel Lewand, Kirsten Knauss and Tina Peric made it to Districts. One of the major problems was not enough girls participating in the events. Mrs. Joan Bush was the coach for the group.

KEEPING UP THE

The cheerleaders keep up the spirit of

This year's cheerleading squads led the panther fans with enthusiastic cheers and chants on the sidelines. They traveled with Euclid's football and basketball teams to boost the spirits of the fans and players. Thirteen sophomores, juniors and seniors made up the varsity football squad and nine returned to cheer for the basketball season. The cheerlead- ers began practicing in July for the 1998 football season. During the season they practiced after school on Mondays and Thursdays. For basketball they practiced before each game. Laura Grosel, a teacher at Upson Elementary School was the varsity football and basketball coach. Mrs. Rodin coached the JV squads while Lauren Scheurman, a Cleveland elementary school teacher, coached the freshman squads. The athletes worked hard to raise the enthusiasm of the fans and help lead the panther teams to victories.

Cheerleaders

Fifty years ago when the first classes began at Euclid High School there were many extracurricular activities the students were able to participate in. Throughout the years some of the activities have changed but many have remained the same. There has always been a Student Council and a Marching Band but fifty years ago there wasn't a S.A.V.E. or a Poetry Club. The school has changed with the times but, regardless, there were many activities that the students could participate in and enjoy while at Euclid High School.

The Euclid High School Ski and Snowboard Club consisted of fifty six students who enjoyed winter more because they were able to slide down the snow covered hills at Brandywine Ski Area. The group traveled by chartered tour bus on Thursday evenings during the winter to get lessons at the ski area. The group also planned a trip to Holiday Valley in New York on the Friday before President's weekend. Snowboarding has really increased in popularity over the past several years and this year was the first time there were more snowboarders than skiers in the club. The program gave students an excellent chance to learn how to ski or snowboard.

The dance was moved back from its usual Valentines Day weekend and occurred two weeks later than usual. The E-room was decorated with balloons and paper and refreshments were served. 130 couples came to the dance to be together and 110 students just got dressed up and came single. No matter who they came with, the students were treated to a good time and they were able to vote for who they wanted to be the Winterfest King and Queen. Michael Miklavcic was elected the Winterfest King and Niki Yannaras was chosen as the Queen. The winners were announced at 9:30 and the King and Queen danced with each other while the rest of the candidates danced with their dates. Dancing was a high priority and a lot of it went on throughout the evening.

WORKING ON THE JOB

Most upperclassmen have some sort of a job

Having a job was a big part of being a student in the 1990's. 75% of the seniors who re- sponded to a poll indicated that they had a job. The proportion of underclassmen would be smaller, but that still was a large number of students that had jobs. One of the reasons for having a job, of course, was to be able to afford a car. After that, the money was used to buy clothes and supply entertainment for the students. Some money would go into a savings account for college for some of the students. Having a job gave students a feeling of independence and the ability to control their destiny.

HALLOWEEN

Many students celebrated Halloween

On Friday, October 30 the hall of Euclid High School teemed with many scary and unusual crea- tures as many of the students dressed up for their annual celebration of Hallow- een. It almost didn't occur as the new Principal, Mr. Ron Seymour, said that there wouldn't be any costumes allowed during school. After many students expressed their disappointment with the new ruling it was decided that dressing up would be allowed. Many students took the time and came in all sorts of costumes. It was a fun day that was enjoyed by all who participated. On Saturday, October 31, Student Council held its annual Halloween Party for the Euclid community where the kids could come and be entertained with prizes and games in the E-Room.

STORING STUFF

Students have been using lockers at Euclid for fifty years

Fifty years ago the first students at Euclid High School began putting their personal belongings in their brand new lockers. Nowadays, students were still concealing their belongings in their lockers. The lockers were no longer new, and some were older than others, but the idea remained the same. Students still needed a place to store their materials while they were at school. Many students decorated their lockers so that everyone knew that it was their locker.

SERVICE ORIENTED

Key Club gets satisfaction from helping others

Key Club was a service organiza tion in which students volun teered their time to help their community and school. The members were dedicated to helping those who were less fortunate. This year members volunteered at the Ronald Mc Donald House in Cleveland, Lake Farmparks, Euclid Meridia Hospital and Gateway Nursing Home. The club met every Thursday evening in the Little Theater. Key Club members took pride in their contributions to the community and its service to others.

Poetry Club enjoys participating in verse

The Poetry Club met in the Library after school with Ms. Barbara Spiga and read and listened to poetry that had been written by members or poetry that had been published. It gave the students a chance to learn about other people's thoughts.

The goal was to be able to present a show during halftime at a basketball game. The girls worked on complex moves and keeping together during the show. They were coached by Mrs. Marketa President.

One of the most important parts of any school were the employees who made everything happen. The staff consisted of teachers, administrators, secretaries, paraprofessionals, security guards, nurses, librarians, cafeteria workers and custodians without which Euclid would not be the school that it was. None of Euclid's current staff were around when the building opened in 1949, but there were many who were here more than thirty years.

|he purpose of the staff at Euclid was to enable the students to succeed in what they wanted to do after gradua- tion. An important part of this was trying to get the students to begin thinking for themselves. The ability to think was the most important part on education. Facts were soon forgotten but could always be i looked up if one knew where to look. The ability to think, however, could never be lost and every situation could be analyzed and then responded to in an intelligent way.

tudents spent three years as underclassmen at Euclid High School. During that time they went from being a new freshman who was in awe with the size of the school to juniors who were well versed in the operation of the build- ing. It was a growing up and learning process that they all had to go through. It was necessary to prepare them to become seniors. It was fifty years ago that the first classes of underclass began.

In the fifty years that Euclid has been open, freshmen have played a part only in the last several decades since Euclid only had three grades when it first opened. The one reaction that freshmen had when they first viewed the school was one of size. It wa;> so awe somely large. The first days were always so hectic trying to find a way to get to every class and then to make it shorter. Freshmen wea thrown onto a new pool of students and had to meet new people and make new friends. Many freshmen spent a lot of time trying to look just right so they would appeal to their classmates. It was a new experience, but it was one that most adapted to and learned how to get about in a few short weeks. „.,^. ' Kfl

LEARNING THE ROPES

Sophomores have learned how school operate;

B

y the time students got to be sophomores they had a pretty good understanding of how Euclid High School operated. Sure, the discipline code book changed a little every year but for the most part the everyday routine of survival at the school was understood. Sophomores began to become active in many of the activities that were available to them and they matured to the point where they were becoming mature young men and women. Sophomores had been a part of Euclid high for the past fifty years.

GAINING MATURITY

Sophomores show much growth after their freshman year I;

Sophomores had learned much about Euclid High School and matured in the process. Sophomores were usually much more reliable when it came to doing their homework and studying for tests and doing everything that was necessary for achieving in their classes. Some had jobs that forced them into learning responsibility and some began driving which took even more responsibility. The sophomore year was one of great change.

GETTING CLOSE

Juniors only have one year to go

For fifty years juniors had been in the position of having only one year remaining before graduation. Juniors weer mature students who were participat- ing in many clubs and extracurricular activities and were the ones who were in position to take over the following year. Almost all of them had their driver's license and many had cars so transportation was much easier than as a sophomore. Many also had jobs so they had a source of income to help pay for all the clothes and toys and types of entertainment that they enjoyed. Being a junior was an exciting moment for most students.

Baseball comes out swinging

Finishes first for last time in G.C.C.

The varsity baseball team had another successful season as they finished their tenure in the G.C.C. with a 21-8 record. The season began slowly after the Panthers lost five of their first seven games. After that, however, they got in the groove and won 19 of their next 22 games. They won the G.C.C. for the last time.
