School Maintenance Although the school changes in many ways during the year, the halls still have to be swept, the lawns mowed, lunches cooked, buses driven, innumerable jobs done by our custodians, cooks, bus drivers, and office help. Five days a week, the cooks serve delicious, filling meals. Planning lunches for such a large number of people must be a major task. Mrs. Wallace, with her staff of office girls, presents a smiling, patient countenance to the many desperate students who petition her aid, besides fulfilling her duties as office secretary. All during the day, the custodians are requested to set up chairs or microphones, unlock store rooms, repair pencil sharpeners, and replace broken windows. Dolefully they watch students cover the walls with posters, knowing that they will have to remove them. After our school day ends, they begin to clear the debris from the classrooms and the grounds. The bus drivers, several of whom also hold positions as custodians, convey students to and from school, and to many out-of-town functions. Performing many extra jobs, the non-certified employees are part of the contingent that makes Coquille High School a laurel-winner. Mr. King, attendance officer, okay's Kathy Allen's excuse. Delicious meals are served each day in the school cafeteria by our cooks, Mrs. Hilja Neavoll, Mrs. Ida Kusick, and Mrs. Barbara Pruess. Bus drivers Ray Jeub, Ivyl Frye, Pauleen Dorland, Roy McGee, and Reuben Leigh relax after their harrowing morning bus routes.

TO LIVE THRT EACH TDMDRRDR FINDS U5 FRATHER THRN TODAY Even though many of the same subjects are carried by all students, each individual receives and retains a slightly different impression from the material offered. Because we have a relatively large curriculum, students are able to choose courses to suit their individual tastes and to most effectively prepare them for the future. This stimulates academic interest and endeavor. Laurels in the form of good grades, scholarships, and membership in honor societies are awarded to those who excel. Formal education is qeared to stimulate the student's interests, but the maximum benefit is obtained only by the student who takes the initiative.
