Vice Principal Dan Finnegan is a man who has not limited himself to the field of education. He has been in the IBM manage- ment program, sales, the stock ex- change, the Air Force, and was a TWA summer employee. Before becoming assistant princi- pal, Finnegan taught English, coached, and was Director of Stu- dent Activities here at Lennox. It is not unusual to see him dressed in his uniform on the way to referee a soccer game, one of his fa- vorite pastimes. Commenting on LHS, Finnegan said, “I would like to see a more ex- tensive shop program and have every student involved in school activities in some way.” 120 Academics Principal Marie Boryan can’t re- member a time when she didn’t want to teach, for she has always liked to work with young people. Travel is her favorite recreational activity, especially visiting unusual places that are off the beaten tourist paths. A dynamic woman of boundless en- ergy, Boryan also likes to spend time at her home in Palm Springs where she relaxes by swimming, gardening, and walking. When asked what she likes best about Lennox, Boryan responded, “The warmth and friendliness pos- sible with a small student body is special. I am proud of the way the students get along together, and I love working here.”’ Now a word about our leaders Assistant Principal Ronald Tyler, who served in the second armored division, would have been a career army officer had he not gone into the educational field. A graduate of the University of California at Santa Barbara in indus- trial arts, the disciplined, well-orga- nized VP has taught printing, wood- working, and drafting at Leuzinger and Lawndale. Asked what impresses him about Lennox, Tyler immediately replied, “The students’ ability to cope with many situations. “In almost every instance where you have the opportunity to sit down and work with them, they are able to recognize their problems and develop alternatives.”
