Brandon' s administrators are number one. LJA. 1! y V71 mari . i .ff-If 3 i Ch 1 H Ank' eww al' es . IDSOH -B Principal Coordinating the events and people of a junior high school is an awesome job and Brandon is no exception. The exception is our administration. The principal and his assistants work hard to give the students and faculty every opportunity to express themselves and make the day at Brandon fun, as well as academically fruitful. Mr. Atkinson is the leader of the group that does so much for the school. From academic problems to athletics, he is supportive and is the center of the Charger Spirit. Mrs. Edison works closely with the teachers and students, scheduling and coordinating academic areas. Mr. Hoffman deals mostly with student problems and the community. Mr. Urquhart's respon- sibilities lie with the school plant, the athletic program and student discipline. All of the administrators overlap one another, however, in their duties. The administration here at Brandon, we are con- vinced, is the finest in any school. It is their support and devotion that help to make Brandon number one. E. E.

any people add theut upport. fitmCl morning, Brandon Jr. High. Often the first contact the public has with us is ac- tually with theoffice secretaries. But these four women do more than answer the phones, type letters and balance the books. Collectively they probably know every intricate in and out ofthe daily lile at Brandon. Without this un- derstanding and the excellent way they apply it, the smooth operation of the school would be in jeopardy. OFFICE STAFF: D. Sykes, B. Thomas, B. Gourley and S.

I- lv-D MX Some types of jobs, if done properly are seldom noticed. However, when they are not, everyone seems to be aware of the fact. Such E the job per- formed by Brandons custodial staff. Rarely are we aware of all the work and effort put forth by this group of people. It is because ofthem that we have a clean, neat and comfortable place to work in. As well as their normal functions, they also help teachers obtain materials for teaching and stu- dents get books out of jammed lockers for learning. Because of the excellent way they perform their duties, we have a school plant of which to be proud. Custodial staffg FRONT: J. Smith, J. McCoy, H. Tripp thead custodianlg SECOND: D. Smith, D. McCoy.
