Stern disciplinarians with teaching techniques which were developed in the Dark Ages, and instructors who were only concerned with how much knowledge they could pump into their students were people Lake Braddock decided they could get along without. Consequently, each member of the staff had to have new and unique ideas which could have been applied to the open school concept. Sharing the students’ enthusiasm, the teachers seemed to be reliving old high school days. In addition to daily classroom activities, the faculty could often be found mingled with the students, cheering on the Bruins at pep rallies as well as at athletic events. Making it their business to care for the school as well as the students in it, members of this staff spent much of their free time sponsoring clubs, attending school functions, and being abused by students while perched in the “Dunk-a- Teacher” booth at the Fall Festival. It was said the school was divided into two groups, students and faculty, but again we were the exception. Most people believed it was impossible for both groups to work together as one, but we showed we could “get it together.” Lake Braddock was not just a building, it was people who were able to relate to each other.

NR. BBRH RGHBDB JOHN ALWOOD — Principal After two years of preparation, Lake Braddock was finally a full-fledged secondary school, and leading us all the way was Mr. John Alwood. Two years previous, he stepped into the principal’s position here, ready to face the challenge of organizing a school. He looked back and stated, “We’ve done above average considering we’ve only been in operation two years.” Looking into the future, his hopes included a counter experience” type learning. “I would like to see us become more involved in the real world, learning where it’s happening.” He also wanted more student-to-student learning where the students could communicate and share each other’s knowledge. Now that we’re finally there, we could only look to tomorrow and hope to accomplish as much, to keep Lake Braddock in with the best. On the phone checking appointments, Mrs. Mayhugh informs Mr. Alwood of the day ' s agenda. Mr. Alwood is caught in the midst of a confi¬ dential c hat. 156 Faculty
