“coming together is a beginning...keeping together is progress...working together is success!”
November 2003
Volume Seven Number Two
Eastview Again Named “Top High School”
by Newsweek Magazine.
Students continue to achieve top Reading, Writing and Math scores!
Students are pursuing and succeeding with very rigorous coursework!
Eastview High School students once again produced some of the highest reading, writing and math scores in the Minnesota
Comprehensive Assessment (MCA) Tests given to all high school students in the State each year. Additionally, Newsweek
Magazine has, for the second time in a row, named Eastview High School as one of the nation’s Top High Schools. Every
three years Newsweek publishes a list of the nation’s top high schools, based on a “challenge index” developed to measure
participation of students in challenging (e.g. Advanced Placement) academic programs.
The importance of Advanced Placement education was revealed by a 1999 U.S. Education Department study that showed
the best predictor of college completion was not how good one’s SATs or grades were in high school, but how many difficult
courses one took in high school.
Eastview High School continues to have large numbers of students pursuing their academic potential through Advanced
Placement coursework. Furthermore, EVHS students are experiencing high degrees of success, measured by the yearly
national exams given in each content area. Beyond the significant learning experiences, success in these exams also
translates into college credit and thousands of dollars of college tuition money saved for these high performing students.
Eastview High School continues to graduate some of the largest numbers of Advanced Placement Scholars (those who pass
the AP exams) in the State of Minnesota.
22 Eastview High School Students
Recognized as National Merit Scholars
Twenty-two students at Eastview High School were
recently named National Merit Scholars for 2003-2004. Eight
of the students were named Semifinalists in the National Merit
Scholarship Program and the remaining fourteen were officially
Commended. Students are deemed Semifinalists based on
their scores on the Preliminary Scholastic Aptitude Test/
National Merit Scholarship Qualifying Test (PSAT/NMSQT)
which they take as juniors. Over 1.3 million students took
the test last year and one and one-half percent of the nation’s
seniors are named Semifinalists. Semifinalists must submit
additional information including transcripts and SAT scores in
order to be further considered as Finalists. The Finalists then
go on to compete for scholarships at colleges and universities,
businesses, and the National Merit Scholarship Corporation.
Quarter 1 report cards will be sent home with students
on Friday, November 21.

Homecoming 2003
Happily Ever After
Eastview Speech and Debate Teams
Unveil Wall of Excellence
On October 2nd, Eastview unveiled its new Speech and Debate
Wall of Excellence.
The wall serves two purposes. First, it recognizes current
state and national qualifiers as well as the season’s captains in
both Speech and Debate. Secondly, it permanently honors State
Tournament champions and National semi-finalists. When asked
about the wall’s significance, Eastview Debate coach, Todd Hering,
stated, “It gives recognition to students who deserve it and it
sends a message to the rest of the Eastview community that
Speech and Debate are valuable.” Co-head Speech coach, Jen
McCarty, adds, “We are so appreciative to the administration
and Booster club for making this wall a reality.”
Anything Goes
Concluded Saturday, November 1
Music and Lyrics by Cole Porter
Directed by Scott Durocher
Audiences enjoyed this rollicking musical comedy of fast-paced
fun and confusion which took place aboard the Ocean Greyhound,
“America.” Our hero and heroine, Billy Crocker and Hope Harcourt,
coincidentally meet at an overcrowded party one hot summer
night in the early ’30’s. A leisurely drive through Central Park and
a chaste kiss put the finishing touches on an evening that speaks
of promise.
This Cole Porter classic musical had toes tapping to such
favorites as It’s De-Lovely, Friendship, I Get a Kick out of You, All
Through the Night, Blow, Gabriel, Anything Goes, You’re the Top,
Take Me Back to Manhattan, and Let’s Misbehave. An evening
of classic Americana was enjoyed by all who attended one of
five sold out performances.
Eastview High School’s Seventh Annual Homecoming
Celebration took place September 19 - October 4. The week
started with the crowning of a new King and Queen at Monday
morning’s Royalty Coronation. 26 royalty court members were
honored during the assembly. Senior Shayne Shaw was
crowned King, as he received the coveted glass slipper. The
slipper was a perfect fit for senior Molly Sauerbry, as she was
crowned queen. Shayne and Molly were selected in an allschool vote to reign as King and Queen throughout the week.
Cold weather necessitated the rescheduling of the outdoor
movie to the following week. Cold weather didn’t stop the
action at Tuesday night’s Volleyball game. Games and
contests with prizes going to the most spirited volleyball fans
were a hit. The night ended with the “$Dollar Dive$”, during
which three lucky contestants scrambled for 100 dollar bills
on the court.
Wednesday and Thursday saw soccer games and also
drew a crowd. Spirit prizes and giveaways from local area
businesses got the fans cheering as the girls and boys soccer
teams took on Bloomington Kennedy.
The culminating pepfest on Friday afternoon brought an
end to the weeklong fundraiser for the MN Zoo. Five EVHS
faculty members vied for the title in the third annual Kiss the
Pig contest. In the end, $300 was donated as newcomer to
Eastview, Don Donais, puckered up for charity!
The festivities started early on Friday night as fans came
out for the Homecoming Tailgating Party. DJ music, a dunk
tank, airbrush tattoos, caricatures, food, spirit sales and games
were just a few of the booths lining the Lightning Plaza outside
the stadium. A record crowd of over 4000 fans cheered on as
the Lightning defeated the Chaska Hawks on the football field.
The celebration continued with the dance on Saturday
night. Over 800 dance-goers rocked the night away.
Homecoming 2003 came to a close on Monday night with
the rescheduled Outdoor Music and Movie night. The evening
started with EVHS student band, AMPM Nuisance, providing
the entertainment. The crowd grew to over 300 as “Ever After”
started on the big screen.
With royalty, dress-up days, a new official Homecoming
t-shirt (designed and sold by the EVHS Business and
Marketing classes), fundraisers, athletic events and tons of
Eastview spirit, Homecoming 2003 was a success! Thanks
to all of the alumni for coming home, and to the entire Eastview
community for taking part in the weeklong celebration!!!
The Eastview High School Performing Arts
Department is proud of one of it’s own!
Dan McHugh, a 2002 graduate, is in rehearsal at The
Chanhassen Dinner Theatre for a major role in this
fall’s production of Cats. Good Luck Dan; we’re proud
of you! We’ll be in the audience!

GUIDANCE OFFICE
ACT or SAT?
Senior Year Checklist
Many questions arise on which college entrance exam to
take, ACT or SAT? Should I take both? When should I take
them? Can I take them more than once? What are their
differences? How do I register?
The ACT is the most commonly accepted college
entrance exam in the United States; however, most
colleges will accept both ACT and SAT. There are some
colleges that will only accept the ACT. Please check with the
college or with your counselor on which test you should take.
Our advice is if you plan to attend a four-year college, definitely
take the ACT during the spring of your junior year. You may
take both tests if you are looking at a wide variety of schools,
particularly on the east coast.
Oct. – Dec. ______ Submit
completed
college
applications, recommendations, and
application fees to the Guidance
Office. Colleges want applications and
transcripts sent directly from the high
school. Standardized test scores must
be sent directly to colleges from the
individual testing company. (i.e. ACT, SAT)
______ Investigate scholarship opportunities
with parents, schools, Internet, career
resource center books, and on the
DISCOVER Computer Program.
______ College applications due Jan. 1
should be submitted by Dec. 5.
Priority Deadline: U of MN-TC - Dec. 2
ACT or SAT should be taken during the spring of the
junior year.

College entrance exams may be taken more than
once. Most colleges will take the higher of the two scores.
Some schools will start averaging scores if the test is taken
more than two times; however many will continue to take the
higher test.
The ACT is an achievement test that measures:
English, math, science, and reading. The four tests are
averaged together to determine the over-all composite score
which can range from 1-36.
The SAT is an aptitude test that measures verbal and
math aptitudes. Each test is scored on a scale of 200-800.
To register for either test, a student may stop by the
guidance office to pick up a registration application as
well as a practice exam booklet. The application is to be
filled out and mailed directly to the testing agency in the
envelope that is provided. Don’t forget to include a check or
money order for the appropriate fee. You will be asked to
provide a testing code for Eastview High School. Our testing
code for all tests is: 242-123. The testing agency will
communicate directly with you on items such as test location,
test admission ticket, and any missing items or fees.

January
______ After income taxes have been
completed, pick up and complete Free
Application for Federal Student Aid
(FAFSA). The FAFSA must be filled out
for any chance to receive financial aid.
Some colleges will also ask for you to
fill out a second financial aid form called
Profile.
______ Attend the Parent Seminar on
Financial Aid sponsored by the
Guidance Office.
March
______ If you are planning to begin full-time
employment after graduation, you should
begin applying for jobs.
______ Make your decision on the school you
plan on attending and return housing
contracts and fees by the deadline.
May
______ Inform the Guidance secretary of
your selected college so your final
transcript may be forwarded.
Colleges may not allow you to register
for college courses until they have
received your final high school transcript.
______ Look for summer jobs.
Dear Parents and Students:
To help you feel informed on post-secondary issues
newsletters such as this one will be sent out periodically or
included with the school’s quarterly newsletter. Unfortunately,
it is impossible to include all the information in a newsletter
but we will try to include the most prevalent information.
Students will also receive information through oral
announcements, video announcements and postings on bulletin
boards. Our goal is to help you feel informed; and remember,
when it comes to post-high school planning, no question is a
foolish question. Give us a call at (952) 431-8914 if you would
like our assistance. See Guidance Office Website:
