Without the hard work of this capa- ble staff, 1,500 students would literally starve. These women, under the supervision of Mrs. De- Graw, prepare diversi- fied and balanced lunches one hundred eighty times a year. Mrs. Helen DeGraw, the Die- titian, and Mr. Alonzo Lennox, the Maintenance Supervisor, hold complicated and important positions at West Essex. From their continual efforts, students and school benefit. Custodial Staff Mr. Joseph Newton. Mr. Sal Passafaro, Mr. Angelo Mercadante, Mr. Pete Rigoloso, Mr. Joseph Scalise. Mrs. Julia McDowel; Mr. Pearlie Williams, Mr. Eugene Verba. Mr. Douglas Leonard; (inset) night custodians Mr. George Sharpe, Mr. Harry Osborne. A broom, a waste- basket, a bottle of cleanser, continual hard work, and a friendly smile are all typical characteristics of the efficient custodians as they pick up the re- mains of the day and keep the school and grounds in steady run- ning order. No staff of workers could be more needed or appreciated than the custodial staff here at West Essex.
