Mrs. Barbara KeiMer puts in hours of tedious work with the Blue Horizons choreographing and polishing shows. Keiffer ' s Traveling Guard KA rs Barbara Keitfer is a very active teacher. •VI Mrs. Keiffer teaches various types of science oriented classes. Not only is she a very important teacher, but she is the instructor of the Blue Horizons. The Blue Horizons consists of a group of very dedicated girls that put in many long hours of hard and tedious work. They, in turn, attend various summer camps and workshops that enable them to improve their many skills. This group is a very important part of their lives. Mrs. Keiffer has also been an active member of the Nighthawks Drum and Bugle Corps for three years, and held the position of captain-head in- structor. Although the corps provides enjoyment for everyone, it does involve a lot of work and pa- tience. Working with people that want to be in the corps involves working with them night and day and being there when they need a shoulder to cry on, says Ivlrs. Keiffer. Although the corps has been abolished, Mrs. Keiffer will always have the lasting memories which were instilled from the corps. Mims, Sam Mims, Vicki Mitchell. Rick Musick. Mary Jane McBnde.

J5 ' Woods, Kathy Zernow. Gary M Get Cooking The cafeteria staff is only one organiza- tion at Dickinson High School that is very supportive of the students and staff. They spend tinne preparing food to feed the many hundreds of hungry students who file through the cafeteria each day. Long hours are involved in this prepara- tion, which includes providing nutritious and well-balanced meals for all. A full day of work is involved as a cafeteria staff member, often starting early in the morn- ing and lasting until the late afternoon. Although the hours are long and the task a difficult one, the cafeteria staff really en- joys the work that they do. Shown Left to Right, Standing: Alice Parish, Faye Light. Mary Schoppe.

Dorothy Pat- ••■r ,,,n, I inda Wright On the Road Again r he bus drivers ar a very hard-working ' group of people. Being a bus driver in- volves much more than just driving a bus. A lot of training and learning has to be obtained before one can be a bus driver. Drivers take a special driver ' s test and learn many safety rules to utilize on their bus. A bus driver starts early in the morn- ing. They are often on special time schedules which allow them to transport all students to their schools on time to begin their busy day at school. After school is another busy time for the drivers. They have to take all the students home after their eventful day of school. Bus drivers do not only drive back and forth to school. They attend many special trips outside of school to places all over the city of Houston and beyond. They, in turn, get involved with the kids. To many students, their bus drivers became their very close friends. Faculty 133
