Employees Take Pride in Work 1 It takes several district employees to main¬ tain the physical plant, run the cafeteria, drive the school buses, and do the q uantities of laundry needed at the high school. Students are scarcely aware of the people who work quietly in and around the school during and after school hours. But if they weren ' t here for a week, just think of how it would be to walk to school, to eat cold lunches, and to wade through debris in the halls! Here are seen Victor Stangland, HaroW Paulson, Oscar Hoffman, head custo¬ dian, and John Nordgrend pausing in their daily routine to watch Harry Gillis install a new light bulb. Keeping fresh linens for both the junior and senior high schools is a full-time job for Mr. and Mrs. Lay Jennings, who take pride in their work. Planning the daily menu is a large job for the high school cooks. Mrs. Hie- stand, district supervisor, and Mrs. Niemi, head cook, discuss preparations for the next week ' s lunches. 27

Adults Keep School Running Smoothly The high school office functions so smoothly under the experienced supervision of Mrs. Clark and Mrs. Welfey that few realize how many duties are performed by them. They range from writing receipts, admitting ab¬ sentees to class, keeping the school books, acting as secretaries to Mr. Clifford, to an¬ swering questions of visitors. Other adults, too, have been added to. the staff in the last few years to free the faculty from duties that take time from their teach¬ ing assignments. Running the student store, supervising study halls, helping in the li¬ brary, and working in the reading lab keep these women on their toes all day. Keeping things running smoothly in the office are the staff secretaries, Mrs. Alma Clark who is shown here filing name cards and Mrs. Dorothy Welfley. Relaxing during the lunch hour, which they often share, are Mrs. Phil¬ lips, assistant librarian, and Mrs. Rinell, assistant reading teacher. Always ready to give “service with a smile” at the student store are Mrs. Bue and Mrs. Davis, who also are study hall supervisors. x ' 26
