Staff Displays Spirit with Class Displaying vivid shades of blue and silver, class but- tons and painter's caps could often be seen on the spirited faculty. Shirts, specialized for each depart- ment, were also faithfully worn by the entire staff on designated days. By constantly attending school functions and tak- ing part on dress-up days, the faculty urged the stu- dent body to participate in spirit-raising activities. These activities included volunteer work at football and basketball games, wearing Halloween cos- tumes, and being hit in the face with a pie. Through dedication of time and talent, the staff exhibited their pride and sprit.

Maintaining A Working Atmosphere The Support Staff Puts in a Hard Days Work to Make School the Best Years of Your Life Smiling while they worked, it was easy to see that the support staff enjoyed being a part of the crowd. Whether it was doing ADA sheets for 3300 students, serving and preparing nutritious meals, keeping up the grounds, handing out over 18,000 books at regis- tration, or maintaining order on the campus, the staff behind-the-scenes took pride in helping out the stu- dent body. The attendance secretaries, with their tallies, kept track of the multitudes that passed through the doors of school everyday. The cafeteria workers were up at the crack of dawn, slaving over hot stoves to meet the eleven o'clock rush hour. Custodians were constantly caring for the cam- pus, making sure it met ideal standards in appear- ance. The bookstore personnel kept a close watch on records and stocked all the thousands of textbooks teachers required everyone to read. The security guards not only enforced all the rules, but they maintained order in a place inhabited by 3300 teenagers. And do not forget the nurse who graciously doc- tored every physical ailment we had. Without the many helping hands that made life a ittle bit easier, school would have been only a mass of confusion. But thanks to a handful of dedicated people we called friends, high school became in the truthful words of Cono Innamorato, “The best years of our lives. Design by Gretchen Askew.
