PERT PAGES There are thirty-two girls at Logan in the tenth, eleventh, and twelfth grades who have given up their study hall or homeroom to become office pages. The girls are chosen to work in the office on the basis of their grades, manners, appearance, and their willing- ness to work. It is considered an honor to be chosen to work as an office page. The girls have many varied jobs to perform in the office. They check the attendance by collecting the absentee.passes each period of the day and re- cording them on a master sheet which is set up the first period of the day. Every third and fifth period the office pages take the announcements around to all of the classes. These are the most important duties of the office page, but she must also deliver messages from parents, teachers, and organizations to the stu- dents, take care of the telephone messages, deliver packages to the teachers, and show guests of the school to the office or a particular room. In general, the office pages assist Mrs. Terpstra, Mr. Schwandt, Mr. Field, and Maribeth Hoogenhous, Mr. Field's sec- retary. Although there is a great deal of work for the office pages to do, they also manage to fit parties into their busy schedules. The party may be a Christ- mas party or a birthday party for one of the girls in the office. A girl can gain a great deal of experience by working as an office page. It teaches her to work with other people, to accept responsibility, and to follow directions. This type of work is an invaluable ex- perience for girls who plan to work in offices after their graduation from high school. The office pages do all that they can to help Logan run smoothly and efficiently. They are a great help to both the teachers and students at Logan. The supervisor of the office pages is Mrs. Terp- stra. Nancy Harget speaks at graduation 49
