Carroll Hauser Dr. Donna Opoku-Agyeman Chairman Language Science Sharon King Physical Education (5) Mr. Mike Morse, former Peace Corps worker, heads the LHS math department by day and teaches college classes at night. With history galloping at a rapid pace, it isn’t easy for Mr. Donald Dunn’s Modern History students (6) to keep the focal areas of action identified. Here’s a light-hearted moment as Mr. Mark Logsdon (7) punctuates his English classes with another of his famous—or is it infamous— anecdotes? (8) A puzzled Nellie Caraballo waits for help from Mr. John Sahakian, faculty expert in typing and short- hand. The study of World War II is a vivid experience as taught by Mr. Don Young (9). Often called ‘the general”’, Young also teaches P.E. classes. RAE PE ESE ES Voices of experience ) Academics 125

Curriculum revised Lee Hayashi Mildred Lynch Ramiro DeLaRocha Lance Opportunity Honors Writing Skills Sci. Fi. Creative Writing Harried staff suffers from meeting mania | The 1979-80 school term was a memorable one because this was a time of massive curriculum overhaul, Stull teacher evaluations, and state ac- creditation. The number of meetings needed to translate all these things into reality was over- whelming to teachers and administrators. Faculty meetings, departmental meetings, dis- trict office meetings, various committee meetings, meetings with consultants and the special interest groups—the list seemed to be a never ending one.
