Junio Will Ozaki has been on the screen ever since he can remember. Whether it was on the sports field or in home videos his father , Channel 7 videographer Andy Ozaki, has never failed t capture his sons ' lives on camera. His father ' s talent and love of film exposed Will to life of being ·on camera

"I love having him on the show, he is great at thinking on his toes and has ~n awe s ome personality ," said Claussen.
Ozaki, with his stunning charisma , is unsure of where his future will take him , but along with marketing and law, broadcasting is definitely an option.

Here ' s a simple math proble m: take a class of 193, and double it. That 's about how many there ar e in this ye ar 's s ophomore class.

" At Lutheran w e had chap el and r eligion classes, th e teacher s would sometimes bring up God a s an e xample of something ," s aid Stahr , "but it' s different h er e b e caus e y ou c an ' t do that ." So far , h e's glad h e' s at East.
"Ther e ar e so many diff e r ence s about th e two schools. At Luth eran , th e a ss ignm ent s and th e way th ey taught thing s we r e differ ent and th ey didn ' t have any intramural sport s ther e," h e s aid.

"It was definitely challenging jumping into that ," said the first-year counselor.
Befor this year, Murphy spent 16 years teaching math at Southeast, but she was ready for a change.
"Math wasn't my passion," Murphy admitted. "It was teaching that was my passion."
Murphy has 1 ved the change in rhythm that being a counselor brings. Being able to work with different group of students and taking over as the sponsor of the Ambas adorProgram have both been a plus.
''She' been really helpful and open minded," said junior Ambassador Megan Toney.
In addition to working with kids up front, Murphy ha loved see ing the school fron1 behind the scenes.
Co'ing from the classroom to the counselor's office can be quite the transition, but one she has enjoyed. .-
"It's been challenging learning the new system, but the other counselors have been very helpful," she Murphy. Her counseling peers have en joyed working with her , as well.

You don ' t make your mark overnight. You make it through cram sessions, science projects, endless class notes and test after test. You make your mark with moments of success-your acceptance to NHS, Honor Roll, feelings of relief after acing a final, memorizing 31 Pre-Cale identities. Your marks are made through moments of victory answering every question on a test learning a new dance routine, becoming a drum major or class officer. You make your mark on the origins of your ACT prep-book, on the whiteboards of our school and with every sticky note you post on your books. Making your mark is more than just earning your • grades and scores.

China's growing influe nce in th being felt as far away as East H igh, where 6 students are in their fourth y ear of learning the language. East and N orth Star are the only two high schools in the district that offer this class.
"The hardest part of learning the language is learning how to pronounce the characters and controlling the tone of the word," said Chinese teacher Coral Su. ''When the tone changes, the meaning of the word changes ."
Beyond the challenges of learning the languag e, Su loves teaching the classes.
"My favorite part is seeing how the students are opened up to a whole new world when something finally clicks," she said . "I love to see them learn."
Fourth-year Chinese student Hayden Pinkman has a very personal connection to the lan, guage . Seven years ago "God called my parents to adopt" his three younger siblings, all of whom •are from China. Levi and Isabella , who are 7 and 8 years old, were adopted at such a young age that they_ cannot speak Chinese, but Meia, who is now 13, can still speak fluently.
"I usually don't talk to therp_ in Chinese urtless I have to," said Pinkman, whose parents said he had learn the languag e. "I speak Chinese with Meia when I need help with somet hing. She just laughs at me for a while, then she corrects me. "
Whatever the reason her students joined the class, Su is glad they are there.
"Taking Chinese courses is such a great opportunity, because they are only being offered at two high schools in Lincoln," she said. "It 's a beautiful languag e, and students can use it in the future."

" It's been crazy, but they both are very hard working and are up for a challenge ," said Keep.
In all those years of teaching, Keep has had everything from food classes, health science and sewing to junior-high FCS (called Home Ee back then) She currently teaches Culinary Skills, Cultural Foods and Health O ccupations. She loves each for their own reasons , from the practical to the experiential.
"Cultural Foods gives students the ability to try foods they never would have thought trying, " she said. And Health Occupations and Culinary Skills offer stl1dents the chance to learn about a career or t practice life skills.
As one of East ' s long-time teachers ,
• Keep has seen the school transform over the years.
""I have watched East change over the years, from being Junior High and High School to just High School and I've watched all the curriculum change , " she said.
She ' s also seen several former students change . Those former students-in.eluding Mrs. Churchill, Mr. Fleming , Mr. Noble and Mr. Gingery-all are now teachers at East.
""Keep never put up with my shenanigans when she was my teacher," said Gingery, ""Now as a colleague, she is a great women to work with. "

True to East's Greek roots, the school's newspaper , The Oracle, has the task of informing the mas es. It is a task that can require plenty from its staff members.
Sophomore Kaitlin Roh joined the Oracle staff this year and had to give up a few things to be a part of it.
"I had to give up AP World History but it was worth it ," she said. "Newspaper seemed like a better choice than history. " That doesn ' t mean Roh didn ' t have to work hard in the class.
"Oracle is a lot of responsibility but you learn what to do • with that responsibility," said
Roh , who said it 's a class many student would enjoy taking.
" Especially for those who love to write and we can always u se a few photographers," smiled Roh , who noted that the Oracle operated with few photographer this year. That is one reason that s he doubled as both a writ er and photographer on the staff. She lik es the freedom that comes with those jobs . "'When you write for Oracle people don ' t look at the author's personality but you do get to share " your oprrnon.
Senior Alex Andersen certainly thinks Orac
" I trie d out for Oracle sophomore year and didn ' t make it so I tried again and made it ," said Andersen , who is now the Online Editor Co-business editor . In other words , he 's a busy guy.
The class has really s haped And ersen as a person.
"Oracle has polished my lead- . ership s kills ," said Andersen. "It ha s also made me think about aspects of my personality I didn ' t notice before. "
Both Roh and Andersen are making their marks at East , having gained as much as they ' ve given to this Greek lega~y , The Oracle.

What i$ it that makes a team succe s ful?
Some say it's a combination of intellect and unique skills. While these traits are important , the right combination of people can make a team not only eff ctive but also enjoyable. A good team -includes the reliable on , the perfectionists and th jok e ters. The yearbook staff did not fall behind and introduced a variety of this people resulting in an all-star team.
First~year members Olivia Andersen and Sidney Parks , two of the reliable ones, were alway willing to do the smallest jobs. You saw them delivering passes , taking extra photos or looking for spelling errors.
"Somebody has to do the small things. If I can do th m, I'm glad to help," said Andersen.
The staff also had those with picky eye who could find the most minor mistakes. D emri Peterson and Alli Walters were often fixing layouts,
trying to identify students properly or looking for misspelled names.
"If you find mistakes early, then it saves time in the long run," said Petersen. '
In addition, you can't forget those who constantly reminded the staff that although the group had a serious task, there was still room for fun. Seniors Bn1ce Claussen and Christian Biester often DJ' ed for the class and made everyone laugh with their jokes.
''If we stressed out , then we didn ' t work well," said Biester. " I was there to make everyone chill."
Ultimately , it was that combination of personalities, jobs and skills that made the staff successful this year.
"It 's funny because we ' re all different but we work well together ," said Lee-arm Sims. "I don ' t know how we came together but I guess what 's 1neant to work is meant to work. "

When omeone is devoted to something, they sacrific a lot to achieve success. That's one reason why senior Hayd n Pinkman wakes up at 5:20 a m. each morning to attend swim practice.
And it's also why, after school , he goes back to the pool, finally returning home around 7 p.m. The only glimpse of sun he observes during swim season is through the clear window in the lunch room.
Pinkman has been swimmipg since the age of two. This is Pinkman's final year of his huge time commitment.
"Not swimming competitively will be an interest- • ing change," he said "It will be weird not getting into the water every day and swimming." All that time
in the pool, though, does take away from other things.
"It's hard to commrt when you · want to do well at studies at the same time," said Pinkman.
Senior Jackson Kelly made a commitment of his own this year, becoming the team's only male diver
"I enjoy going off the board more than swirmning," said K elly.
Pinkman and Kelly both swim outside of the season to stay in shape and for fun. Why such commitment?
Because, if someone is de dicated you "can't halfway do things," said K elly .
Clearly, it come down to the measure of dedication, and the outcome an athlete wants.

''Everyone was so great when I first came that I want d to give back and help all the new students feel the ame way," said Ingamells.
One of the many things that the Ambassadors are responsible for is helping the new students. Members meet every new stu dent and show them around the school, helping them find their classes and other
important roo E t during second semester.
"She helped me find each of my classes and all the short cuts through the school," said Overton. " It was nice to know someone and have someone to talk to."
Sophomore Kealy Barnes came -to East from Elmwood Murdock high school, a school that didn't have ambassadors.
•
"It was great having someone to sit with at lunch and help navigate such a big school," said Barnes.
In addition to showing new students aroun~ East's Arnbassadors also help the exchange students feel welcomed and have holiday parties.
Counselor Kristin Murphy is in her first year of leading Arnbassadors. It's no surprise that Murphy, new to East herself, has appreciated the Arnbassadors and loves what the group brings to the school.

Anyone who 's ver been to a National Honor So iety (NHS) rneeting knows that the group is laced with tradition. It's not very oft n that a eremony complete with candles and fancy attire is held in a s hool , much less annually. Founded in 1921, NH honor tudents for what th y accomplish both in and outside of chool.
"A lot of students wony about applying to NH b cau e th y feel , that it 's solely a group ba doff of academic ," said NHS r tary Hibah Chughtai. " Academics is a key component to NHS but there is • so much more. We want students who display great character, student who are creative, and students who are willing to giv back to East and th community in numerous ways."
That move away from focusing solely on academic achievement isn't the only thing that ha changed this year. Chughtai, along with other members, sponsors and associate principal F airouz Bis hara , ha edited the chapter' by-law , which hadn't been changed ince East op ned in 1967.
While these edits were a break in tradition, the hard work wa w Icorned by the supervisors and members alike.
"It was a tedious proce but w discuss d what could b mend e d in the by-laws," said Chughtai. ~'The most in1portant chang r garde d service hours for all NHS members." That change allows eniors t o u se th ir required 20 GoPo hours as part of th r quired O hour n cessary for ~S membership. Senior Katey Everts says, "It makes my life so much ea ier. It 's much more effici nt and I don't have to do a crazy amount of hours now".
