He completed his student teaching at Rio Americano High School. One of the most memorable moments while teaching at Encina was when he moved from Mrs. Begg’s room to his current room G-2 because he has so much more space. One of Mr. Dahlin’s joys in life is todrive his new car--a Corvette. He claims that one of the things that makes him different from all of the other teachers is less hair, and he’s older. Dahlin said he would rather teach ceramics than any other class because he likes taking mud and turning it into something that is almost alive. It is Mr. Dahlin’s hope that the ceramics class will stay open long after he retires. Its all about Dahlin he made a lasting impression on students and staff 4 Dedication Left: Mr. Dahlin and Eugene Robinson. Below: Mr. Dahlin and Maritza Alcantar.

Student Life 9 A MARKS lbert Einstein was one of a few scientists that change the way we look at the world Today. He was born in 1879 and die on 1955. In that time he made many theories on how the world works. Einstein got married twice once to a class mate and once his cousin. Einstein also like music and he played the violin. Albert Einstein is on of few scientist who had changed the way the world works today. Albert Einstein was born in Ulm Germany on March 14 1879. He died in Princeton on April 18 1955 at the age of 76. Albert Einstein did not like his school in Germany. His best subject in school were mathematics and science. At The age of 12 he taught himself Euclidean geometry. Later when he was 17 he entered the Polytechnic in Zurich Switzerland. He did not like the Polytechnic very much. He often cut classes to study physics and play his beloved violin. 10 Student Life OF TIME WELL SPENT In Polytechnic he met a classmate named Mileva Maric. They got along very will so they soon got married. They had two sons and settled down in a small apartment in Bern. In Bern he had a job to check technical description in the application for patents. In 1913 Einstein was invited to Berlin to lead a scientific research. He then separated from his wife and two son to go to Berlin. In Berlin explained his theories to other scientists. In Berlin he happened to live very close to his cousin Elsa. Elsa was a widow with two daughter. Albert Einstein and Elsa got along very well so they go married. They lived in lager apartment. Albert Einstein had many theories his General theory of Relativity, His special Theory of relativity, Theory about light rays and many more. His Theory of relativity was probably his most famous one of all. It was about the laws of relativity and the law of gravity. One of Albert Einstein theories that he could prove was his theory about light rays. It was about how gravity could bend light rays. On march 1919 there was a total eclipse of the sun. This was Albert Einstein chance to prove his theory about light rays. On that day the moon move in the way of the sun blocking the light. On both side of the sun there was two stars. When the moon block the sun you could only see the to stars. The two stars seem farther away because the gravitational pull of the sun bend the light rays of the two stars making it look farther to the people on Earth. Albert Einstein PIC 1 predicted exactly what look place. This made Albert Einstein very famous. When Albert Einstein was famous his theories were know to every one in the world by 1922. Most people did not understand his theories but they relaxed that he was a genius. Albert Einstein traveled all over the world give lectures and explaining his theories to other scientist. This sometime was very stressful for Albert Einstein. He had many ways of relaxing his favorite way of relaxing was to play his beloved violin. In 1921 he was invited to the United States Of America to give lectures and explain his theories to other scientist. There Albert Einstein was greeted by cheering crowds at the airport. In 1922 he won a Nobel Prizes for physics. Albert Einstein won a the Nobel Prizes for physics for proving he theory on light rays and other things. After Albert Einstein won the Nobel Prizes for Physics he was followed by photographer and reporters everywhere he went. He was the best known scientist in the 20th century. In 1939the scientist of the United States of America turn to Albert Einstein for help. They feared that Germany was making a atomic bomb. Albert Einstein got to work right away. Albert Einstein and a group of scientist studied the inside of an atom. Later on Albert Einstein and a group of scientist were able to develop an atomic bomb. With this they were able to threaten the Germans. Albert Einstein made a difference in how in how we look at thing today. He was born in Ulm Germany on March 14, 1879 and die in Princeton on April 15, 1955. Albert Einstein got married twice. With his first wife he had two sons. With his second wife he had to daughter. Albert Einstein made many Theories on how the world works. Albert Einstein traveled all over the world giving lectures to other scientist. In 1922 he won the Nobel Prizes for physics.

Frederick Douglass was born in February 1818 into slavery in Easton, Maryland. During his childhood he worked on plantations starting at a very young age. Douglass got little education through out his childhood. In 1835 William Freeland bought Douglass as a slave. Douglass attempted to runaway from the plantation, but he failed and was imprisoned. Shortly after he was in prison, he met Anna Murray, also a slave that worked for Freeland. They feel in love and Douglass was underway in another plane to escape to a better life. His attempt was a success in 1837. He went to New York. Once he was settled there, he sent for Anna Murry. They were married in 1838. Douglass was an activist in the fight against slavery. Now that he was in New York and was free he could begin to speak publicly about his concerns. For the first time ever he spoke out at an antislavery lecture in New York during 1838. After his first time speaking he attended many rallies in the fight against slavery. In 1845 his life story was published. He traveled to England to lecture about slavery and then came back to the Untied States in 1847 to begin his lecture tour though out the free states. Also during this time he began to write and publish the North Star Song. Douglass felt there was not fair treatment and they deserved to be equal with white soldiers. They met again sometime late in the year to discuss plans about how to free slaves from the South if the North were to lose the war. Douglass declined to accept the offer of being head of Freedman’s Bureau in 1867. Becoming the editor of the newspaper “New National Era” in 1870 was a big accomplishment for Douglass. He however moved on in 1874 to become president of Freedman’s Savings & Trust Company. During 1877 Douglass became the US marshal, but he was getting older and his fight for black rights was slowing down considerably. His beloved wife Anna died in 1882, but only two years later he remarried to Helen Pitts, who was from Rochester. After his long, hard fight, Douglass died February 20, 1895 in Washington DC. The first women’s rights convention Douglass attended was in 1848. He did not speak however, just took in what others where saying and supported it fully. His involvement with the underground railroad started about this time as well. In 1863 Douglass met with President Lincoln to discuss how the black soldiers were being treated.

Above: Gary Nelson Timetables, clocks, watches, timers...electrical appliances, empty, unfeeling boxes or pages govern our lives today with the nature of an angry dictator, rigid and unforgiving. Now even our hearts must pump blood at a specified rate or we are ‘unfit’. Teenagers are expected to spend thirteen years at school in preparation for life in the outside world or ‘the fast lane’. Outside, indeed, life is fast; those with ‘high-powered’ jobs such as executives are viewed as successful while artists who slowly take in the world are simply ‘lay’. Fixed timetables, bells and co-curricular activities in the early stages of our lives teach us quickly that life is a series of rules which must be adhered to; just as in a board game, we must observe the rules or be prepared to lose.

Teacher of the year! Below: Mr. Paul Oropallo Impressive I mpressive, is a word that truly describes the faculty at Encina High School. A great teacher gets to know each child individually. A great teacher doesn’t bark orders and talk to children in the “to whom it may concern” style; she/he gets to know each child as a unique individual, spending time cultivating one-on-one relationships with each child. Great teachers know children deserve to be treated with individual respect, even if they are in a group setting. It is only as individuals that they can be fully appreciated and understood. A great teacher shares a joyful spirit . A great teacher knows it is not enough to be “present”. Children require us to share our presence emotionally as well as physically. By sharing joy with children, and carrying a positive attitude, great teachers give children hope, encouragement, and a sense of the world being a good place. A great teacher loves to learn as well as teach. A great teacher is as open to learning as she/he is excited about teaching. Great teachers know that learning and teaching are lifelong processes that go hand in hand. They encourage their students to view learning as fun, and view teaching as a natural outcome of wanting to share enthusiasm for learning. A great teacher knows how to get back to basics. A great teacher knows children learn best from down-to-earth experiences. Great teachers are less concerned with technology than with nature. They know the value of a walk in the park over a video game. They understand that the best things for children are not always the newest, flashiest or most “advanced”. Great teachers understand that children learn from life itself, not just educational toys and man-made experiences. Rights: Mrs. Martha Wetzel Above: Mr. Paul Kargal, and Mr. Tom Durkee.

Great teachers influence and are influenced by their students. Not only do great teachers learn about their students, they learn from their students, too. By listening to students, asking them questions, and getting their opinions, great teachers encourage a dialogue that is meaningful and educational for all. A great teacher looks at the big picture. Great teachers know how to put learning into context. They help their students understand how each new piece of information fits in with the rest. They seldom teach isolated facts and skills. Instead, they try to help children see how ideas are related to each other, and how they connect to the child’s life. Great teachers inspire and motivate others. Great teachers share their passion for teaching, and in doing so, inspire those around them, including students, parents and other teachers. Great teachers are gifted in finding the good in each person, uncovering the talents in every child, and fueling the fire of greatness that exists in us all. Left: Kim Austin and Mara Levine.

When I was a freshman in high school our team was so bad that our punter was actually the best player on the team. Ho w is that possible you ask? During Monday’s viewing of the horror tape that was our team videotape, I made the comment “Man, Cameron is like our best player!” Cam was the team punter and 5th string tight end. Cam was nothing special, but he 56 Sports could punt the ball about 40-50 yards on average, which is nothing special but when you are in 9th grade, that is extraordinary. Another player turned to me and said, “He’s not our best player idiot. How can he be our best player he’s the punter!” I sat there for a split second and then responded by saying, “L.T. was the best player for the Giants, and he didn’t play offense…..what’s the difference” Little did I know just how right I was. In football, the best player on the field is the guy who is the best at his position. The best player isn’t the one with the most ability; he is merely the person who does his job better than anyone else on that field. Larry Allen and Tony Boselli have both been the best players in the league in separate seasons without receiving the proper credit that they deserve. Even the Wide Receiver position gets overlooked. The running backs and especially the quarterbacks get first crack at being called the best in the game everytime. history of the game has been Jerry Rice. His superbowls, big catches, and ownership of almost every receiving record puts him in a serious class that is so exclusive that he is the only one in it. He’s nearly 86 years old and he’s still out there killing db’s and opening things up for his teammate Tim Brown. His work ethic has become the stuff of legend, his records are well documented, and he continues to put up all-star numbers against players that are almost half his age. The player who to me has simply been the absolute best at To those who his position believe John throughout the Unitas, Joe Mon- Athletes Left theri Marks on Sports tana, Jim Brown, or Walter Payton is the best football player of all time, I only ask that you look at Mr. Rice’s full body of work. After looking at this body of work, there is just no way that anyone could look at me with a straight face and tell me that this man hasn’t dominated his position like none other. That makes him in my view, the very best player that the NFL has ever known, period. Sports 57 Football The Mark Of Victory TouchDown!

Today there are more than 46 million Americans who play volleyball. There are 800 million players worldwide who play Volleyball at least once a week. In 1895, William G. Morgan, an instructor at the Young Men’s Christian Association (YMCA) in Holyoke, Mass., decided to blend elements of basketball, baseball, tennis, and handball to create a game for his classes of businessmen which would demand less physical contact than basketball. He created the game of Volleyball (at that time called mintonette). Morgan borrowed the net from tennis, and raised it 6 feet 6 inches above the floor, just above the average man’s head. During a demonstration game, someone remarked to Morgan that the players seemed to be volleying the ball back and forth over the net, and perhaps “volleyball” would be a more descriptive name for the sport.

Then he tossed the ball in the air, swung and missed. Undaunted, he picked up the ball, threw it into the air and said to himself, “I’m the greatest baseball player ever!” He swung at the ball again, and again he missed. He paused a moment to examine the bat and ball carefully.

But many of us forget that somewhere along the way we must learn to dance. —Alan Harrington. The Encina High School Cheerleading Squad for 2002-2003 was an exceptional one. The squad and the coaches attended the NCA Summer Camp at Davis and brought home many awards and accolades, including three spirit sticks, thirteen first place ribbons, and eight second place ribbons. Five of Encina’s phenomenal squad received all-American Cheerleader nominations: Brianah Ayodele for motions, LeTaunya Terrell for leadership, Tiffany Woolfe for facials, Yanci Comerford for voice projection, and Donsha Watkins for dance. The twenty member squad did outstanding routines, dances, and stunts at the football and basketball games as well as the rallies this year. They were a cohesive team of athletically talented girls: LeTaunya Terrell, Vanessa Orozco, Nyeshia Williams, Chanel ThompkinsGatewood, Rickelle Henson, Jessica Eason, and Brianah Ayodele made up the Varsity squad. The Junior Varsity Squad consisted of Donsha Watkins, Jamilla RossSparks, Tiffany Turner, and Marquisha Smith and Alyssa Kahili. The Freshman Squad members were Yanci Comerford, Tiffany Woolfe, Jamira Stennis, Delilah Dixon, Jackie Kersch, and Chaulzy Sargent. And no one will ever forget the hard work done by our two bulldog mascots: Lisa Raber and Victoria Alvarez-Chacun. Coaches LaShanika Harris and Desiree Eason did an outstanding job of leading the team to all the games and tournaments. Some outstanding moments from the year are the nonsleepathon held at LeTaunya’s house, the many car washes, the spaghetti feeds to help the football team, the bus trips to Marysville and to Golden Sierra, and the Hometown Buffet dinner at the end of basketball season. Cheerleading always has its ups and downs, plenty of long, strenuous practices in the 100 degree summer heat, but in the end it provides many fond memories and awards for the girls involved.
