astlake North High School’s teachers
and staff took the Homecoming theme to a
whole new level this year by not only chaperoning the dance but dressing the part! Led
by Student Council co-advisors, Mallory
Lane and Amy Cvelbar, the theme of
“Emerald City” was brought to life.
Ms. Lane and Mrs. Cvelbar approached principal Jen Chauby who embraced the idea
and they had no problem finding teacher and
staff volunteers to dress as Dorothy
(Intervention Specialist, Mallory Lane), the
Tin Man (Intervention Specialist, Amy Cvelbar),

Munchkins (Assistant Principals: Steve Hertrick and Jeff Lyons), The Wicked Witch
(Principal, Jen Chauby), the Good Witch
(Guidance Counselor, Lindsay Lane), the
Cowardly Lion (Principal’s Secretary, Cathe
Besselman) and the Scarecrow (Math Teacher, Bryan Bain).
Mallory Lane said that “everyone was very
excited and the students had a blast. The
students loved to see the staff dressed up;
they were complimenting all of us all night
about how great it was and they wanted to
take pictures with us. Everyone had a ball!
We even had a few dance offs and
the teachers were involved in the
line dances. The best part was
that all of the students behaved
wonderfully!”

I am extremely thankful for my supportive and caring family and husband, and my funny, sassy, precocious
two-year-old old Ellie.
I am so thankful for the opportunity
to work with, educate, and learn from
the students in my classes. They
challenge and inspire me daily.
Erin Cramer, Intervention Specialist Eastlake Middle School

Congratulations to North’s Homecoming king and queen:
Mike Ranallo and Lexi Febres and congratulations to
North High’s faculty for going the extra mile to put smiles
on their students’ faces!
“I have so much to be thankful for. My husband died 5 years ago and I am so thankful for my children
and my parents. I did not have a job at the time so I am thankful that I have a job…”
“I am thankful to have a job that I love. It is nice being in high school to see my former students growing
up and seeing how well they are doing…”
