Administration Guides JFK To Successful Yeor Making sure that Kennedy runs smoothly, is the main responsibility of the three administrators. Mr. Fitzsimmons has headed Kennedy since its opening in 1967. His duties include overseeing activities, curric- ulum changes, and acting on teacher and student requests. Our two assistant principles have a wide variety of duties. Mr. Thompson oversees attendance, grade re- porting, schedule changes, and discipline. Mr. Sauerbry is in charge of all student activities as well as discipline. He must also work in conjunction with Mr. Shupe, Ken- nedy's Activities Director. All three administrators work with parents and counselors to decide on the best course of action for the students. Mr. M. C. Thompson 39

To help sophomores adjust to high school, a number of small discussion groups were set up. These groups enabled sophomores to get to know their counselors. Juniors and their parents attended a college informa- tion night in the spring. Applying to a college, financial aid programs, and how to choose a college were the main topics covered at the meeting. ln the fall, counselors and representatives from col- leges met with seniors interested in attending a trade school, college or university.
