For New Competency Test. \"Did you study your vocabulary words?\" \"No, I forgot about 1t.\" \"Hey does 'occurrence' have two \"c's\" or two \"r's\"? \"I don't know. What does \"ver- bose\" mean?\" \"You've got me there. When will you ever use a word like that?\" Sound familiar? Ah ... those glori- ous vocabulary tests w1th lists of awkward spellmgs and mmd-bog- gling pronunciations. What would the average high school student do without them and that old favorite, English grammar. Their importance increased this year because of the new State law requiring all h1gh school students, beginning with the class of 1980, to pass a competency test betore rece1v1ng an academic diploma. The bulk of the test will lean heavily on reading and English knowledge. Facing this challenge, the English faculty helped the stu- dents prepare for the testing by us- ing GE MS (Goal-oriented Education- al Management System), a program initiated by Jordan School District. Each student had to have at least 80% mastery of each GEMS goal. HHS English teachers followed the students' progress while writing and teaching new objectives to meet these goals. However, the English deparment had more to offer than skills. Sci- ence Fiction, Creative Writmg, World Literature, Humanities, and publica- tion classes rounded out the litera- ture curriculum. The department also sponsored Expressions, the HHS literary magazine under the guidance of Ann Swift. Charactenzat1on 1s JUSt one of the many literary aspects d1scussed 1n Engl1sh classes 91

FocusJ Centering On A \"We've got each other and that's all that matters. We talk to each oth- er about our problems; we play games; we do it all just like one big happy family.\" This quote from a Fo- cus student capsulized the purpose of the Focus Pod: a friendly, warm atmosphere for learning and social- ization. The class is organized in families. Students discuss the1r problems in a rap session . Focus f~nds a couch a nice place to catch up on read~ng. Sue Loube shows students how to solve math problems .

World Of Individual Dilemma Focus gets ready for the festivities of Halloween . The focus family gathers around the1r un1quely 1nver ted tree . Focus builds the self concept of the disinterested students , in- creases the basic skill levels of stu- dents and teaches them how to cope with the world around them . Sue Laube , Ryan Anderson , and Mike Flook teach courses in English, Current Issues, Physical Education , Science, Psychology, Math, Social Studies, Health , and Communica- tions . Of special importance is the crisis intervention course in which students practice making decisions in high pressure situations. Hopeful- ly, the practice will avoid punchouts over managable crises. Focus ' bake sale was a big success. 93

Foreign as defined by Webster's Tres New Collegiate Dictionary, is \"situ- ated outside one's own country\" or Let's see who really did their homework last night. \"born in, belonging to, or character- istic of some place or country other than the one under consideration.\" Language, also defined by Web- ster, is a \"systematic means of com- municating ideas or feelings by the use of conventionalized signs having understood meanings.\" Promoting an understanding of world cultures is the goal set by the Foreign Language Department. Teaching students to communicate in Spanish, French, and German were the goals set by Anne lasella, Dennis Larsen and Diane Smith re- spectively. Fiestas, music, art and literature also heiped the teachers attain their goals while promoting student inter- est in foreign cultures. The Interna- tional Club, headed by Jacquline Marinac, president; Donna Hunter, vice-president; Gaylin Woolsey, sec- retary, helped boost student inter- est by planning various activities such as fiestas, field trips to Mexican restaurants, speakers, slides, and in- ternational food demonstrations.

Where did they go? They went to their under- standing counselors. Mr. Bird han- dled students from A to E. Mrs. Gil- liam handled students from F to L. Mr. Lovato M through R, and Mr. Barnett took care of students from S to Z. But their help certainly crossed through these lines.

For Future Life. The counselors were at Hillcrest to help students discover them- selves, look at their strong and weak points, then look at the world of work and the opportunities there to help them . Counselors helped stu- dents select goals that would be sat- isfying and attainable . They espe- cially helped the seniors to decide what they should do after high school. The counselors advised and helped all the students plan their lives . Betty G1llam helps many students f1nd 1nformat1on about jObs. Students use career k1ts in search of su1table jObs.

On Health At Hillcrest Lecturer: Today 's lecture is on heartbreak of phoriosis, the cause of acne and postnasal drip. Student to other student: That's easy. Phoriosis is caused by dan- druff, acne is caused by a secrection of the male sex hormone causing skin to be oily and inflammed mak- ing pus appear, and postnasal drip is caused by sinuses. If you are dependent on friends for health information (or mis-informa- tion) you should have indulged your- self in one of the courses of the Health department. Principals of sound health were stressed in such courses as basic health , Health Oc- cupations, and Physiology. Lori Alder gets ready to give blood tests for a physiology ass1gnment .

This busy department offered a large variety of classes such as Clothing I, II, Ill, Vocational Foods, Marriage and Family Living, Dating and Personal Relationships, Child Development, Interior Design, and Personal Finance . All of the classes were popular with both boys and girls. In addition to these classes, which provided a well-rounded ex- perience for students, the depart- ment sponsored the Husky Howl through ther club, the Future Home- makers of America (FHA). Other ac- tivities of the groups were state and region conventions and service pro- jects. Eumce Pixton demonstrates to Tncia Mason the art of putting 1n a zipper. 101

These classes al- lowed students to design their future home, repair their cars, build a din- ing table, and basically train for suc- cess in a career. Clean tools are important. Students cut metal for future projects. 102

Skill And lndependance. This department takes part in a nation-wide organization called VICA (Vocational Industrial Clubs of Amer- ica). This club offers competition in skilled areas such as communica- tions and printing, architectual and engineering, drawing, woods, met- als, and auto mechanics. Courses in all of these skills were offered through the department in addition to vocational courses: Machine Shop, Bricklaying, Building Con- struction and even Carpet Laying. Indeed, each of these skills were practiced on the district's house building project where vocational students from the entire district constructed a home to be sold to the public.

Future Marketing Problems Will \"Good afternoon ladies and gentle- men. Welcome to our spring show- ing. Today we'll see the latest in fashion and accessories for the most discriminating customer. Sales blurbs like these are only part of a wide encompassing depart- ment at Hillcrest called Marketing. It stressed skills that will enable Hus- kies to enter the world of work equipped with sales expertise and to better the consumer skills of all of those who entered the market place. The classes included Voca- tional Marketing, Fashion Merchan- dising, Salesmanship, and Book- store. A new class in the develop- mental stages in '79 was a real es- tate course. Not only does Marketing monitor work experiences, it offered socializ- ing and competition through its DECA club. This national club spon- sored marketing competitions, lead- ership conferences, parties and fund raising projects. Patty Pusey ad- vised the club and Dave Nicholes, Kelly Newbold, Shauna Jensen, and Kaye Mathis were the club officers.

The only good thing about calculus is the twelve hours of college credit and the knowledge I would have to fake again in college. Well, I guess it's not all that bad; we got out of school to go to the State Math Contest, and I belong to the SMASH club (Society of Mathematicians and Scientist at Hillcrest). The Math department was some- thing almost all students came to know and appreciate either by tak- ing one or more of the core classes or moving into the advanced math areas of calculus, trigonometry, Ad- vanced Placement Algebra or Geom- etry, or computer science. The pri- mary concern of the department was that each student leaving Hill- crest have enough competency in math to function as an adult. But the department went way beyond this goal by preparing numerous senior students for AP exams, and all stu- dents for the State Math Exam. Many students earn college credit while in high school thanks to dedi- cated Husky math teachers. Steve Enckson crams for a test. Matt Killmger tnes h1s f1ngers at the compute dat1ng machme. 106

Beautiful Strains Erninate \"Whole notes, half notes, quarter notes, one-hundred and thirty-sec- ond notes, time signature, repeats, fortisimo, metzo pianisimo, eighth rests, spaces, lines: I'm going crazy! I can't handle it any more . What do they mean 'accent?' Which one? French? English? Russian? How do they expect me to concentrate when everyone else is doing some- thing different. (Doesn't everyone sing the melody?) And look at this alphabet! It only has seven letters!\" Understanding and appreciating the complexities of music baffled your basic Husky. Hillcrest, howev- er, used a secret weapon lodged in the Music department in the form of Leo Dean to combat this ignorance. This year he had a new partner whose code name was Jay Ronk. Much pract1ce and sk1ll are needed to successfully play v1olms 1n harmony . 110

From The Hill Between these two mus1c1ans , the campus was alive with the sounds of music; Mr. Dean conducted the choirs and Mr. Ronk directed the or- chestra and bands. They certainly had their hands full with the Orches- tra, Stage Band, Marching Band , Jazz Band, Girl's Chvrus, Junior Choir, Concert Choir, Chamber Choir and the new Swing Choir. We almost lost the entire Music depart- ment last winter, however. Once again the heat failed in that wing of the building. But the team of Dean & Ronk were successful in separating frozen fingers and strings and chisel- ing choir members out of their seats. With heating problems unre- solved, the school's musicians her- alded the arrival of spring. Playing a French horn requ1res much air capacity Many hours of pract1ce makes a successful cho1r. 111

P.E. Helps Promote Sound \" I hope they let us play softball today .\" '' Well I hope they let us play tennis cuz ' I really need to work on my backhand .\" '' I hope they let us choose cuz' I want to play basketball. \" \" It's so hard to decide what to do cuz ' there are so many activities to get involved in .\" The goal of the P.E . department was to provide activity that would help benefit students.' growth and development. They tried to help ev- ery student become a better person physically , mentally ,and socially . They had a variety of activities which included softball, tennis and touch football in the spring to bas- ketball , volleyball , weightlifting and recreational games during the win- ter . They also provided dance, ath- letics for both men and women and Wetghtltftlng was a favonte sport among vinle Huskies. Basketball was popular as an tntramural sport . 11 2

Minds And Strong Bodies a complete gymnastics program. Since they had gone to co-educa- tion, the classes were equally as popular except during the winter months. The boys enjoyed basket- ball and the girls enjoyed volleyball and recreational games. The in- creased studentbody made the P.E. department used every room and every corner every hour of the day to accommodate the increase of students. The staff would like to have brought to every student ac- tivities that were enjoyable and fun. They realized these were students who had a dislike for activity, but they felt they covered enough activi- ties through their programs that when the time comes, the students will know how to utilize their time wisely . The main concern of the P.E. department was the physical fitness and the growth of every student. Gymnast shows excellent skill. Green machines learn bas1c techniques of scnmmage . 113

Innovated Programs Boost Once upon a time a group of men joined forces and built a school house. This school house consisted of one room. There were kids of many shapes, sizes, various person- alities and degrees of ability that went to this school. As time went on, the one room school house became overcrowded . A need for a diversified set of pro- grams for kids of different ages, and abilities developed, and the school administration was forced to employ new programs and class rooms . One such program is Resource . Mr. Tom Burchett, Resource department head, explained that the purpose of his program is \"to get the students in my classes to learn the things they will need to know to help them become successful when high school is over .\" Resource is a program designed to teach students to succeed out- Hard work and perseverance IS rewarded with a game of scrabble .

Student Progress side the framework of regular classes. When asked what usually becomes of students after their Re- source experience, Mr. Burchett commented, \"They graduate, get married, get a job and make more money than I do ... if I've done the job right, that is.'' Although increased enrollment has affected the number of students in resource classes, the department still tries to give individual attention to every student. Teaching methods are basically the same as previous years. As Mr. Burchett explains it, \"There are new things on the market. Curriculum development has become a fiercely competitive field . It seems to me that there really aren't such things as new methods, just new packages and diversified methods seem to better prepare Huskies in the Re- source program.\" ·· Resource IS not all fun and games.\" Resour ce students get a chance to \" talk th1ngs out\" 1 h each o er 115

Stir in: dash glycerin 2 tablespoons nitric acid Combine all necessary ingredients to create a big blast. Although mixing nitro-glycerin and TNT together wasn't a regular habit of the HHS Science department, many chemical experiments did take place. Strange smells and noises often pervaded from the sci- ence labs as these experiments were conducted. As one toured the science labs of Hillcrest, one might have encounter lab experiments ranging from heat enthalpy, in the chemistry lab, to the delicate dissections in the Bio- logy lab. Chem1stry students craft1ly gather elements for dev1ous experiments. 116

For A Big Blast! Paul Argyle - end-of-quarter transformation! A misgu1ded heart! Although experiments play a ma- jor role in learning the fundamentals of science, much book work is in- volved. The book work involves learning to find the A.M.U. of an ele- ment to the depletion of spontane- ous generation . The science depart- ment is manned by Jack Jorgensen , Paul Argyle, Hyrum Johnson, Robert Pixton, LeRoy Soderquist, Lane Walsh, Lee Whitmore, Bruce McGuire, and Rick Walker . The goals of the department were to teach students as much about the physical sciences as possible . A science club was formed, also. The club officers were Shawn Mace; president, Matt Killinger; vice-presi- dent, and Joyce Warner ; secretary- /treasurer. Numerous activities, such as , entries to science fairs, field trips to several colleges, lectures, and performed group science pro- jects were planned. Some students will go to any length to ach1eve accuracy . 117

The Social Studies department of- fered such courses as Freshman and Junior Social Studies, Geography I, World History, Sociology, Teenagers and the Law, American Economy, American Government, American Problems , Psychology I and II , and Marriage and Parenthood . It also sponsored the United Nations pro- gram, Senator Hatch 's Explorer Post and Washington workshops. As a department it did not sponsor a club, but teachers in social studies donated much time to students as advisors of school clubs : Ham / Haw was co-sponsored by Byron Thomp- son and Pam Lamb, who also spon- sored Big and Little Sisters.

You 'd think, as virile and ath- letic as those Huskies are , they could muster the strength to take their trays up. Anyway , while getting out of the trays, I got stabbed with a fork . So I went to the school nurse , Sue Groves. She was really nice and put a band-aid on me so I wouldn't go flat. I walked out her door and there were the janitors. I thought they must need some help.

It's a word, it's a plan, no, it's the DISTRI CT AD- M IN ISTRATION ! Jordan School District has been especially trou- bled with a lack of class- room facilities to accomo- date the new incoming freshmen this year. The district administra- tion was responsible for budgeting the money to construct new schools. They worked extremely hard to combat the aris- ing problems of education and funding. It was a great challenge to keep one of the fastest growing districts running smoothly. Mark Klotovich Maunne Jensen Member of the Board Member of the Board Kenneth W. Baker Delbert G. Crump Earl J.

Mr . Delmar Sch1ck

Mr. Schick's Activities Are Discovered Mr. Schtck cheers our teams on to victory. \"Who is our principal anyway?\" Mr . and Mrs . Schick enJOY a faculty party . ''I don't know- do we even have one?\" When the yearbook editor over- heard the whispered conversation between the bewildered freshmen, he, with a remarkable display of his brilliancy, came to the conclusion that a serious problem had arisen. He raced through the halls and leaped into the yearbook room. \"CRISIS\" he screamed, and imme- diately his loyal staff members sur- rounded him . \"Our principal is miss- ing in action- we have to find Mr. Schick!'' And so the search began: \" Have you seen Mr. Schick? \" \"Last time I saw him, he was leaving for a confer- ence.\" \"I saw him two days ago talk- ing with the Superintendent.\" \"I think that man who just ran by look- ing at his watch was Mr. Schick!\" \"Oh, he's in his meeting still.\" WOULD THEY EVER CATCH HIM IN A FREE MOMENT? Exhausted and discouraged the staff reached their last destination, their only hope. And there, hiding behind the mountain of papers stacked on his desk was- DELMAR SCHICK! \"What have you been do- ing?\" they moaned and the inter- view began. As the principal of H.H.S., Mr. Schick spent a lot of time away, at- tending District administration meeting, region meetings- all kinds of principal meetings. He was always busy working to keep Hillcrest run- ning smoothly. He was happy about the way the school adjusted to the big change. He really liked the freshmen, and thought their enthusiasm added to the total school spirit. Mr. Schick lives in West Jordan with his family of three daughters and two sons . Together they enjoy hunting, fishing, and all kinds of sport activities . He likes foreign foods and \"just eating-PERIOD.\" Last year, Mr. Schick was chosen as one of the sixty outstanding prin- cipals of the nation, and this year he was the president of the Utah High School Activities Association . Even with all of his other responsibilities, he did a fantastic job as principal of Hillcrest. You're great Mr. Schick! 131

Our administration- Scott Olsen , Bruce Garrison , Denny Kastelic , and Delmar Schick caused the opposition to tremble and quake w ith fear at all the football games earn1ng them the title , \" The Fearsome Foursome.\" 132

Bruce Garrison \"But Elvis Presley died last year!\" Denny Kastelic \"That's what YOU think. I've seen him sneaking around school in a disguise. He's wearing a green suit, dark glass- Scott Olsen es, and he hides out in the office. And I even heard him sing!\" \"You jerk! That's Bruce Garrison, our V.P.\" The real Mr. Garrison didn't show up just when the curtains are open. Behind the scenes his other talents are displayed, making him a well-known and needed person here at Hillcrest. During the first of the year, Mr. Garrison spent a month in the hospital recuperating from the shock of freshmen . It was then the Huskies realized that being without him was almost more than they could bear. Such sentiments were voiced in a get-well card sent to him from Focus . \"It's not the same around here without you. In fact, it may even be a little bit better! Just relax.\" \"We love you Mr. G.- get better soon.\" With his positive attitude, friendly smile and warm de- termination, he has become a very rea l person at our school. \" Th is is Mrs. Kastelic speaking. We are sorry to inter- rupt your class again, but ... \" Did you ever sit in class when the ceiling spoke to you and told you, \"This is Mrs. Kastelic?\" Well, it was not a sneaky, deceptive ceiling- it really was Denny Kastelic, our V.P. She was a happy, excited, and enthusiastic person. Her great personality really adds that special touch to Hill- crest. Her family plays an important role in her life. She has three children, two have graduated, and one is in junior high. Most of their activities are family oriented- skiing being the favorite. Mrs. Kastelic has taught in several different places, but she has been the happiest at Hill crest. \"I appreciate the students for their caring attitudes. They aren't ever cold or formal,\" she exclaims. The principal and staff are very special to her. \"There is never a boring moment, the days just seem to fly by!\" HOW TO BECOME AN EFFECTIVE V.P. 1. Wear painted frown . Your mean image must be main- tained at all times. 2. Run around track twice daily. Chasing students may develop into cross country running. 3. Avoid acting suspicious. Rent a cow costume if you plan to sneak up on students hiding in the dugout. Pretend to graze-they won't notice you. Why would Scott Olsen, the vocational marketing teacher, be reading literature like this? Because he was our new vice principal, or to be specific-a vice principal-in- training. Although he was an old timer at Hillcrest, (He had been here for ten years) this was the first try at administration. He was excited about his job and told us \"My new position is a challenging one and I'm looking forward to a great year.\" And so the \"Dastardly Duo\" became the \"Truculent Trio\" to terrorize the halls of HHS forever! (Well, at least until the end of the year) Good luck Mr. Olsen! 133
