More Than Meets The Eye here was more to being an Admin- istrator than sitting behind a large desk. The Principal and the three Assistant Principals work- ed with students and facul- ty alike to retain the school's reputation. Mr. Keith Meenan had several responsibilities. Besides overseeing what occurred at Sahuaro, he was in charge of cur- riculum, staff selection, budgeting and assigning substitute teachers. He supervised department chairpersons, established school policy and designed the student handbook and notices. Mr. Meenan hoped to get more parents involv- ed in the School Communi- ty Partnership Council and more students involved with student council. Mr. Meenan felt that liking kids and having a sense of humor were important. Mr. Meenan said that there is almost nothing that was administratively impossi- ble: If there is something that can help the students we will find a way to ac- complish it. As the year began, we were left without an Assis- tant Principal of Opera- tions. Mr. Charlie Parisi was chosen to fill the vacancy. Mr. Parisi's new job consisted of organizing discipline and providing a good educational environ- ment. He supervised mon- thly fire drills and staff evaluation and develop- 1 Faculty and Staff ment. Mr. Parisi believed that discipline should con- sist of talking with the stu- dent and finding a solution agreeable to the student and administrator. He was in charge of various com- mittees including one on substance abuse and one on graduation. He was quoted as saying, I treasure honesty in work- ing with students and l am hoping that in return students will share their honesty with me. Being Assistant Prin- cipal for instruction was not an easy job, but Mrs. Alice Evans handled it well. She was enthusiastic and had set some outstanding goals. Some objectives were to establish a positive learning environment and to organize a child study referral plan for students who were involved with, or abused drugs. When asked what she liked best about the school, she said, the all-around American stu- dent body that is equally in- terested in learning and en- joying life. She also added that the staff is top- quality. All in all, she has shown great ability to live up to the qualifications that were essential to meet the standards of her job. As Assistant Principal for Student Activities, Mr. Bob Jones has a busy job. Besides his efforts to get Mr. Meenan discusses a memo with a fellow staff member. Photo by S. Keller students involved in as many activites as possible, Mr. Jones took care of Senior discipline and ar- ranged bus transportation to and from school. In addi- tion, he had hoped to pro- vide opportunities for students to participate in activites while balancing their academic load. The students' pride and involve- ment in school were things Mr. Jones liked. He thought that the school's good reputation was upheld due to the healthy attitudes of the students and staff. - H. Gomez and B. Phillips
