Rely on Him Although the usual work hours for a man of his position are from 8 until 3, this man ' s day begins at 7:00 as he unlocks the doors of Pinson Val- ley High School.

As the day continues he is called upon for assistance by teachers and students alike. He is always willing to lend an ear and lis- ten to any problem and offer advice.
