TO BE EXCUSED ORNOTTOBE... Attendance: The word describes it all. The job of these four people is to know the whereabouts of close to 2,000 people every day. They have to keep track of who was absent and who will be, who got in late, Who's skipping classes, and who gets ex- cused When. On top of that they must distinguish forged excuses from the real McCoy. It's c1 tough job, but somebody's gotta do it. Attendance Staff: L. Bertone, M. Espey, V. Loughlin, M. Ri- enzo. . . . 8t THEY'RE STILL NOT SICK OF THEIR IOBS!

Despite all this, they constantly maintain a professional yet caring attitude. Medical Office: H. Berrycmn, P. Brogan, R. Hoveman, M. Post.

HOUR POWER You're in English class. Suddenly, the phone rings. After a brief con- versation, your teacher turns around and meets you eye to eye: Mr. Bell's office. After class. The rest of the class yells snagged and you slink out of the room at the end of the period. Being sent to your dean is always an unpleasant experience, but nec- essary for the system to function well. They can be lenient to first time offenders, but after that, you can al- most expect a few hours from a visit to the dean. Deans: C. Bell, A. Brett. THE GUIDING LIGHT . . . As our world turns into a broad, unexplored universe after gradua- tion, we are able to greet it with some knowledge of What to expect, thanks to the guidance department.

BREAKING THE LANGUAGE BARRIER . . . Language barrier? For some people in this school, yes. Sure we've spoken English for the past ten years, but all that time, did we really understand it? Chances are, no. After four grueling years of English at KHS, students leave enlightened: they tshouldl understand the words they speak and the origins of many of them, they've been exposed to intense writings, and, best of all, can dissect a sentence into all of its parts. tMakes for good conversation later in life, eh?l English Department: A. Aidala, P. Betts, K. Boduch, I. Cava- no, S. Cohen, I. Happeny, L. Hilbert, L. Hohn, M. Leonard, F. Licopoli. E. Lis- tort, L. Lomita, P. Nichols, W. Scherer, W. Smurl, A. Stein, R. Thomas, B.
