Each student secretary, whether in the front office, guidance office, or library, gives up an entire period to help the school. Most of these students seem to agree that the real reasons they do this volunteer work are ‘‘to legally roam the halls, get people out of class, and make general nuisances” of themselves. However, Bluestone’s faculty is made constantly aware of the real help these students are to them and the school. Staff Assistants 23

The Future Homemakers of America really shone through this year with quite a few successful activities. This club, with one of the largest membership of any club at Bluestone, was in charge of the SPTA Christmas program and sponsored a float in the Chase City Christmas parade. One leadership training workshop the FHA held after school so new officers could learn to do their jobs well. Four workshops were held for enjoyment and education of the Future Homemakers. Probably the most outstanding achievement of the FHA was the election of Barbara Thames to the office of State Reporter for Virginia. It has been several years since Bluestone’s FHA has held any state office, and this club is indeed proud of Barbara’s accomplishments. Barbara traveled all the way to Seattle, Washington, to attend the National FHA Convention. She stayed for eight days of lectures and tours, and describes it as “the most exciting experience” of her life. With her help, the FHA has been one of the most active clubs at Bluestone this year.
