Health office worker Tammi Simmons is the re- cipient of an eye examination from school nurse Mrs. Virginia Faas, R.N. Year of problem-solving Administrators planned for the evaluation of the school by a team of educators from the North Central Association, who visited BHS in January. They checked standards that must have been met by observing classes, examining equip- ment, and talking to teachers and students. A new policy of attendance was introduced by Principal G. William Anderson to cut down on the number of absent students. The maximum number of days missed during the semester was changed from 15 to 10. Assistant Principal Noel Lewis was bombarded with phone calls as 45 teachers reported sick during teacher negotia- tions. Teachers were demonstrating their feelings about slow progress in arriving at a satisfactory contract. The position of school nurse was filled by Mrs. Virginia Faas, who replaced retiree Mrs. Phillis Erdmann. Outside of school, Athletic Director John Carbone served as executive secretary of the Central Indiana Athletic Con- ference. Dean of Boys Mr. Kenneth Ross supervised the drivers of 361 students cars in the south parking lot. Along with their other duties, Mr. Ross taught Typing I and Dean of Girls Mrs. Joanne Gibson taught Home Ec. I.
