“As John Dewey High School moves towards the 21st Century, curtain truths remain consistent. Our students continue to care deeply about our school and about each other. The Class of 1992 is truly representative of this spirit and this sense of community. You should be proud of your participation in the Dewey tradition and draw strength and comfort from the realization that this experience will always be a part of you. We wish you great happiness and success as your journey continues.”  

- Fondly, Steve Lasky, Coordinator of Senior Programs

26 YEARS LATER - June 2018…

“1992 was the most carefree year of my life! Instead of graduating early, I stayed to enjoy my last year at Dewey as Editor-in-Chief of the 1992 John Dewey High School Yearbook and MATRIX, JDHS’ weekly newsletter. 

Teachers at John Dewey HS, especially Steve Lasky, helped mentored and guided me towards my current career. Every teacher at this school was passionate and enjoyed their role as educators. It’s amazing the dedication and hope in the eyes of these teachers that show up everyday. As a low-income immigrant, I thank all the teachers that helped me explored possibilities I didn’t know existed. 

In late 2017, we mourn the passing of Steve Lasky and celebrate his passion for education, art and design. I hope you all enjoy these pages as much as I did looking back to celebrate his life and time at John Dewey High School.”
