Miss Brenner's classes, however, constitute a distinct major field of in- terest. As the art depart- ment she teaches two full junior-high classes, a hegin- ning art class, and an ad- vanced art class. She feels her suhject, hy teaching a person to see harmony, hal- ance, and rhythm in the life about him, enhances the in- dividual,s life. I I

Being supervisor of District 400 brings the problems of running all the grade school cafeterias to her office, just off Clover Park's kitchen. Under her direction the cafeteria also 3 handles special dinners for the administration and community E club, as well as for the annual football and basketball banquets. Eight full-time cooks and fifty students help serve the two daily lunch periods. Some of the nicer things about the cafeteria are the teacher's not having to stand in line, the student staff working this year without faculty supervision, and the quantity of food served. The thousand gallons of milk used in less than a month is an interesting item. Clover Park can rightly be proud of its clean, ample cafeteria.
