The four cafeteria workers plan and prepare a well-balanced meal for approximately four hundred people on two shifts daily. Students who assist cafeteria workers in serving receive a free lunch. A dishwasher equips the cafeteria with automatic washing and sterilizing. During study hall or a free period students assist in office work and run errands. These workers deliver notices containing announce- ments of the day and an absentee list. A first period worker collects absentee slips and takes the lunch count to the cafeteria. The first period absentee list is checked against the homeroom absentee list. Both adults and students drive school buses. These drivers must be qualified drivers and good disciplinarians. Student bus drivers are excused five minutes early each afternoon to bring the buses to the front of the building. The cautiousness of all these drivers is particularly important during the snows when roads are icy. Two custodians are responsible for cleaning rooms and halls and emptying trash each afternoon. Both are ready to fix any break- downs in classroom equipment during the day. For several years the cafeteria workers have prepared the food for the Colonnade and Pepergram banquets. The cafeteria is used as a classroom several periods during the day, and clubs hold dances there on Friday nights. Students took SCAT and STEP tests in the cafeteria because of the space needed.
