Most Important Emphasis is on Work Experience Mr. Robert Sikora Mr. Bruce Whipperman Mr. Jefferson Nash Mr. Alexander Panasenko i Mr. Douglas Boyce, Dept, for the Exceptional, Dept. Head. Mr. Thomas Kellis Mrs. Inman Rouce Mr. Weldon Populus Department for the Exceptional o o o The aim of the department of services for the excep- tional, said Mr. Douglas Boyce, head of the department, is to develop each individual ' s potential in the areas of social and academic competence. To achieve this goal a ' broad fields type ' of curriculum is offered in which specialized instruction and equipment are utilized. As most of these teen agers are terminal high school stu- dents it is important that a major emphasis be placed upon work experience, he says. The work experience program is arranged individu- ally for each student so a portion of each day is spent in on-the-job training. A variety of Berkeley businesses offer work training to assist these students in assessing their interests and abilities to perform on the job. Some of these work situations include training in the follow- ing: stock clerks, stock markers, duplicating clerks, filing, kennelmen, animal care, building maintenance, automobile service stations, laundries, restaurants, nursery school aides, machine operators, and seat cover installers. Working students also take a course entitled Occu- pations which prepares students who will be entering the labor market following high school. These various work experiences and the related high school courses are planned in a sequential manner to develop occupa- tional adequacy. 26

Physical Education Very Important to ieaitli Mrs. Jane Howard Vi v Miss Mary Lee Carey Mrs. Evelyn Chiles Mrs. Pat Davies Mrs. Jean Gregerson Mrs. Marilyn Oldershaw Miss Armida Gonzalez Miss Nadine Gardner Mr. Harry Choulett, science department chairman, talks to student Stephan Ricks. Mr. Alvin Caburi Mr. James Dickey Mr. Clesson Harvey Mr. Robert Hamilton Department Chairman Stas Various Duties The duties of a department chairman are quite varied. One of my most important duties in the science depart- ment is coordinating the ordering of all the supplies and equipment and making sure that it is all received and in useable condition. Another duty is helping to set up the master schedule for the school. Each department chairman is responsible for scheduling the various classes to be taught in the department. At the beginning of each semester it is our duty to keep class sizes equalized and to help coun- selors to advise students regarding courses to be taken. Department chairmen are also responsible for helping to evaluate new teachers and determining within a three year span whether they will receive tenure in the district. The department chairman is also responsible to some degree for the curriculum offered though his work is secondary in this area to that of the curriculum associate. There are many other duties but the above are some of the more important. One of the bigger problems this year is the matter of class size. We have had some cutback in faculty and with a larger enrollment in the school our classes are larger than usual. We have also had to reduce our spending in the area of supplies and equipment so there is some problem in making sure each teacher has the things necessary to do a good job of teaching. In general I have found my new duties to be interesting. — Robert Choulett
