It isn ' t the type of job you stay at very long if you don ' t like it. Mr. Jertberg has been at El Dorado ever since the school opened in 1967. He vi as an assistant principal before he be- came principal. This is his ninth year as principal and he considered this year to be one of the better ones. He also said that the students are consis- Forget it Ron, they ' re not gonna let us out, says Ms. Ervin to Mr. Cozart. tently stronger year after year. Mr. Jertberg considers the r e fj fresh- men class to be one of the best ever in terms of their behavior, academic standing, and athletical- ly. They seem to have a lot of lead- ership in the class which other classes in the past have lacked. When asked about the Senior class he said that they were one of the better Senior classes. Mr. Jertberg said of this year, This is a very good year. The students have been doing well in sports, grades, and have overall good behavior. Mr. Jertberg stated affirmatively that El Dorado is probably one of the top notch high schools, and that it ranked high comparatively to oth- er high schools in the state. He con- tinued on, We have good curricu- lum coupled with students, a great faculty, and a sports program. It seems quite evident that Mr. Jertberg is openly proud about the great school that he has contribut- ed so much to. R. Davis A. ErvIn R. Graham 280 Administration

Gorv Cordwoio; Wisiorv fn Tho liokin If you asked most students who they thought were some of the most out- standing teachers at El Dorodo, undoubt- edly the name Gary Cardinale would often come up, Mr. Cardinale has been teaching twelve years at El Dorado, and intends to go on teaching indefinitely. He stated that he enjoys teaching, and if he had not enjoyed working with kids he wouldn ' t still be here. He teaches U.S. His- tory and another history course, Ameri- can Frontier. Mr. Cardinale is also one of the Varsity baseball coaches and is also an adviser for C.S.F. He proceeded to say that he trys to become involved in a ma- jor part of kids lives when they ' re in high school. One of the main contributing factors that makes him a great teacher is his ob- vious enthusiasm about the subject he teaches. He said that History is very im- portant because mankind can learn how to correct and avoid his past mistakes. Unfortunately I don ' t think most people understand it ' s importance. Because of this apparent lack of interest in history by most people Mr. Cardinale attempts to make his class enthralling. Fortunately for his students he succeeds. He explained, Since most kids aren ' t going to go around the world learning about history first hand, I try to bring history to them. Truly he is an asset to El Dorado. Gary Cardinale gives one of his famous Calm Down Glares to one of his unruly students. M. Alexander J. Appleby S. Arena C. Blanchard T. Brennan R. Brown G. Cardinale E. Carro 282 Faculty
