School Can Really Keep Teachers Busy In large group lectures, small discussion groups, or on an individual student-teacher basis, teachers are the people who instruct the students as they probe for knowledge. Class advisors, detention-slip givers, study hall watchers, and keeping law and order on pep buses are only a few of the many tasks outside of the biggest job of being a teacher. With extra-curricular activities the gene ration-gap is eased as students and faculty join in on the work and fun. Clubs such as Literary and German Club were started by teachers, who reorganized the students’ interests and did something to increase their knowledge on that subject. Six new teachers joined the faculty staff this year at A.H.S. They are: Miss Uttecht, vocal music and B-Band; Mrs. Hedeen, A-Band, 7th and 8th grade English, and in- strumental music; Mr. Zingler, principal, chemistry and driver education;Mrs. Abraham, physics, general math, physical science and Algebra I; Mr. Senne, English I, II, Iv; and Mrs. Senne, English II, III and head librarian. o Principal Don Zingler and Superintendent Richard Kirsch review the school’s curriculum. Mr. Zingler also teaches chemistry and driver education. Below: Mrs. Ericson demonstrates making seams for Home Ec II girls. Mrs. Mary Abraham-Physical Science, Physics, Algebra I, General Math.

People Sometimes Overlooked . . . Darlene Crawford, teachers aid, helps two kindergarten students, Tommy McKee and Lan- dra Allan, to relate pictures with words. When people think of “school”, they think of kids walking busily about from class to class, studying hard for tests and exams, and going to many activities. Sometimes we over- look the little parts that help make school function as a whole group. Have you ever wondered what school would be like without a busi- ness manager to handle financial affairs? A secretary to handle corres- pondence? Busses to transport the kids to and from school in all kinds of weather? Nutritious meals? Custodians to keep the school clean and running efficiently? And Teachers aids to assist the teachers in their duties and to provide individual class instruction for students? These people, who are sometimes overlooked, are the “little parts’ that help make school function as a whole. Below: Teachers as well as students receive extra assistance in the classroom and out from our teacher’ aids: Nancy Fickbohm, Mary Jane Brenneise, Lois Hongslo, Avon Dietrich, and Gladys Johnson.
