The secretaries in the finance office find the job of counting money more pleasant when using a time-saving coin sorter. Secretaries at AHS The secretaries in our various offices serve the students, the teachers, administrators, and the public. They handle the multitude of details making Ambridge High an efficiently operated school. In the central office a trio of women perform those jobs most familiar to the student body. Here the permanent record and class schedule cards of each student are on file. Typing up and mimeographing tests papers, printing the daily announcements, and maintaining a lost and found department are a few more of their many duties. All money transactions are handled by the secretaries in the Finance Office. This staff handles the funds of the schools organization and cafeteria tickets and those from activities sales. Checking supplies from the stock room is also another of their jobs. In the attendance office is kept the attendance record of each student. Serving the administrative department are the secretaries of the superintendent’s office. This branch receives packages sent to the school, maintains the school board’s records, and serves as receptionists for visitors to the school. What is your excuse todayt” is a familiar question to tardy students when they report to give their excuses to Mrs. Per-suitte in the attendance office. Among the clerical duties in the superintendent’s office are filing tuition records and mailing orders for school supplies. 23

Nurses Cheerfully Render Medical Services Whenever a student was in need of medical attention, the first thing said was, “Call the nurses’ office.” It was the job of Miss Ann Stolar, Mrs. Lucille Albright, and Mrs. Naomi Peters to administer the needed treatment to the student. The Department is well equipped and has fine facilities to handle any minor medical problem that may arise. Medical examination schedules and the tuberculosis innoculation program were set up by this administration. The nurses not only administered to the medical needs of the student, but found that part of the treatment was listening to personal problems. In addition to this staff, the school was serviced by two local doctors and five dentists. Medical examinations were given to all eleventh grade students and dental examinations were administered to the seventh graders. Also, physical exams were scheduled for those boys who participated in varsity sports. Junior high students receive dental check-ups after being prepared by Miss Stolar. Lucille Albright Naomi Peters Ann Stolar Miss Stolar administers an eye examination to senior John Koodrtch. Through the experienced care of Mrs. Peters, students having headaches often found relief by taking an aspirin.
