Yolanda Collins [last updated August, 2003] [E-mail address updated November, 2003] Hello Fellow Mustangs, I 'm still working hard as a Registered Nurse. I 've been doing this now for almost 14 years. I 've changed specialities several times to keep from being bored or getting burned out. The foundation at East High School truly helped me transend into my profession smoothly. Mrs.Hightower and Mrs. Freeman are still the bomb!! Nursing is a wonderful career.( and the pay is great!!) Please support nursing because we all will need someone to care for us or one of our love ones one day. The shortage will never get better until more of us enter the field. If you 're worried about seeing blood, you really don 't have to.(smile). I'm also still single with no kids. My nephew is probably as close as I 'll get. But, I like it that way because I can take him home when he starts tearing my place.(smile).May God Bless each of you. Sincerely, Yolanda Collins, RN, BSN Tony Gentry [last updated August, 2010] I haven't been up to much, just working everyday.

Steven Fitzgerald Moss [last updated May, 2011] Friends and East High Classmates: My prayers go out to all my 1986 classmates and the entire East High family. If you are reading my 2011 update, thank you. There are many classmates I have thought about over the years...i.e. my first girlfriend and her cousin, my basketball teammates, coaches, teachers, and great Principal Mr. Bynum. I pray all of you are well and have healthy, happy families. Currently, I am an IT business analyst (Project Manager) in the education arena (K-12). Traveling for work resulted in me relocating to Chicago back in 2004 to present. I have much love for Chicago in the summer time, not so much during the winter months. All that said, gents and ladies, I would like to invite you to support my personal charity St. Jude with your donations. St. Jude is the only pediatric cancer research center where families never pay for treatment not covered by insurance. No child is ever denied treatment because of the family’s inability to pay. http://www.stjude.org Take call all and feel free to email me at [the address below].

Great Talking to ya! Sandi Robert Salm [last updated July, 2009] Hey everyone! Good to see that this website is updated and full of our wonderful memories and news about East High--especially the renovation pictures. I got a chuckle seeing the AP science room photos on this website because I was an East student when they were renovated back in 1983. To recap: I attended East High School for only the Spring '83 and Fall '83 semesters and transferred to Germantown High School where I graduated in 1986. During my short time at East, I fondly remembers classes with computer teacher Mr. Suggs, English teacher, Mrs. Howard, and chemistry teacher, Dr. Hudson. I believe that the teachers and students at East helped mold my career into what it is today. I spent two and a half years at the University of Houston (Houston, Texas) in the College of Architecture program. Changing career gears from architecture to graphic design, I worked for a couple of printers in Houston as an in-house graphic designer. I left Houston in 1990 for Chicago and am now a freelance graphic designer, working for advertising agencies, design firms and publishing houses. I am proud that Chicago is home to our fabulous first family and excited that we have President Obama running our country now. Feel free to contact me. .
