BUSINESS ED Staff Turnover Seen Working within the framework of traditional courses, the students in business education had the additional challenge of adjusting to three new instructors out of a four-person staff. Kathy Loeks, who was new in the fall, left to marry at the semester break. She was replaced by Susan Spain, who finished the year. Consequently, those enrolled were required to make changes in classroom activities as the two instructors were much different in technique. Mr. Jim Walker took over the operation of the school store and the business education classes; he encouraged his students with enthusiasm, interesting personal anecdotes and the added incentive of jobs! Enrollment in the program continued strong as more and more students found part-time jobs and took Distributive Education to get a work release. In spite of the staff problems, real gains were made in the department with students benefiting. 1: Acting as a substitute teacher Mrs. Darla Newton assists Senior Debbie Klopp with her Office Practice typing assignment. 2: Answering an Inquiring call in the main office is Senior Vickie Kosoff. 3: Deanna Roquet takes a momentary break from a difficult typing schedule. 18JBusiness Education

PHYSICAL ED. Staff Change Made P.E. activities continued without interruption as Miss Kathy Woods took the place of Mrs. Kathy Voves at the semester break. Voves took a leave of absence to have a baby boy in the winter. Another “new arrival” to the P.E. staff was Mr. Grant Boustead, who also taught Health II. As usual, Mr. Ron August headed the department in developing activity and course goals for the co-ed classes. Back in 1977, many skeptics felt that the co-ed system would fail; however, they have been proven wrong. The P.E. staff has handled various problems that have arisen; including injuries to some students, with a positive attitude and students are generally enthusiastic. The P.E. clar-es have enjoyed playing team handball, basketball, gymnastics and climbing ropes, and have survived the less popular programs like calisthenics and weight lifting. 1: Warming up tor gymnastics ara sophomores David Blrchtlald and Jody Taylor. 2: Dismounting from the horse In gymnastics Is sophomore, Sherry Moskat. 3: Mrs. Kathy Voves. 4: Mr. Ron August. 5: Miss Kathie Woods. 6: Mr. Grant Boustead. 20 Phvslcal Education
