Mrs. McCaleb, Mrs. Snead Head Office Staff Secretary Co-operation is often displayed as Mrs. McCaleb takes time from her usual routine, to help Mrs. Snead count and roll the day’s money so both can go home on time. Mrs. Ellen Snead Secretary The office is the nucleus of Alleghany County High School. Every student at one time passes th rough the office door to ask a question or await the appearance of Mr. Cvizic, Mr. Holbert or Mr. Walker. Starting at 8 o’clock every morning, Mrs. McCaleb and Mrs. Snead open the office for business. Mrs. McCaleb is responsible for the book store, the mail, and answering all the numerous and sometimes humorous questions of many inquiring students. Mrs. Snead is in charge of all the money which comes through the office in any one day. She helps students in the clinic. Both Mrs. McCaleb and Mrs. Snead have many other duties to fulfill in a day’s time. The student office staff comes in handy when errands need to be run or when either secretary needs to leave the office. The office at A.C.H.S. is the place to go if a student needs a shoulder to cry on or an ear to listen to the songs of success. Without the office, A.C.H.S. would no doubt fall to destruction in a week’s time. 16
