GHS Welcomes 5 New Administrators HS has recently undergone many changes, one of the biggest being the new ad- ministration. We have a new princi- pal, assistant principal, and dean. I love this school: I love Glen- daIe, are the words Mr. Jim Kieffer used to express how he feels about Glendale High School. Mr. Kieffer became our principal this year after the retirement ofMr. Hutchison. Mr. Kieffer graduated from Camelback High School and then began col- lege at ASU. Fresh out of college, he was hired as an assistant princi- pal at Cortez High School. Mr. Kieffer is married with three sons. Some of his leisure activities are camping, skiing, and spending time with his family. Mr. Kieffer feels the best thing about GHS is the students. He says, l'They're friendly and they seem to care about themselves and their school. Mr. Kieffer's main goal is 'Ito em- phasize academic opportunities and assist those students who have a difficult time with school. He also says, GHS is a great place with high academic standards and I expect all students to learn. Next up is Ms. Maxine Daly, one of the assistant principals here at GHS. She has been with the Glen- dale District for about 155 years. Ms. Daly began her career as a counsel- or at Thunderbird High School. She then became department chair for the next 6 years. She decided then that she wanted to go into adminis- tration. She has spent two years as Dean of Students at THS. Ms. Daly decided to come to Glendale be- cause, l'I've always felt Glendale was a special place. There are changes that Ms. Daly would like to help make while at GHS. One of those things is public recognition for the students. One idea is to have student pictures on a Wall of Fame. Ms. Daly would also like to see more pride and en- thusiasm in this school. I'd really like to see us celebrate GHS and make being here a celebration. Mr. Warren Jacobson is not new to Glendale High School, but is new to thejob of Dean of Students. For the past 5 years, Mr. Jacobson was the Staff Development Specialist at GHS and Independence. Mr. Jacobson, attended the U of A and received his B.A. in Education. He later did graduate work at ASU. His goal as Dean is to try to keep students in school by reducing the number of tardies, absences, and other discipline problems. As far as hisjob goes, he says, It's terrific. I enjoy working with the students and teachers, and can't imagine a better place to work. Last, but most definitely not least, is the one administrator who is not new to Glendale this year, Mr. Bill Smith. Mr. Smith considers himself familiar with GHS. He was born in Glendale, graduated from GHS, and married his Glendale sweet- heart. After college and time in the Air Force, Mr. Smith returned to Glendale and began teaching and coaching at GHS. He taught world geography and coached cross- country. Mr. Smith began his administrative career as Dean of Students and stayed in thatjob for 4 V2 years. He then became head of Student Ser- vices and was in that job for Z5 V2 years. This is Mr. Smith's seventh year as Assistant Principal for Ath- Ietics and Activities. Mr. Smith says he misses teaching and coaching because he was able to work more with students. He loves his job now because he is able to work with all the clubs, ath- letics, and activities on campus. He said, 'il have seen many new administrators come and go. With the new team GHS has this year, I believe they have high morale and positive attitudes. He also states, l'They are rapid learners. They are quickly becoming true Cardinals. I see great things coming. -Maria Meza and Kim Williams l Ms. Anne Schulz Ms. Jackie Carter Mr. Richard Stapley Mr. Bill Stout Mr. John Campbell Board President Board Clerk Board Member Board Member Board Member 18 BOARD MEMBERS
