Administration Administration's responsibilities were held together by teamwork. Bob Dykes, Mike Kirkman, Jack Strickland, and Remard Hawthorne are all part of our administration. They all hold important responsibilities and work together as a team. For exampleg they keep the school's building mainte- nance in order and care about the students, education. If a student is not satisfied with his or her schedule, then Mr. Strick- land will change it. They are also in charge of the courses offered, and materials and textbooks that are needed. Answering phones, making copies, and selling school supplies are just some of the responsibilities that Susan Jobe and her aides hold. Diane Skelly is Mrs. Islar's secretary and she keeps busy doing the same things for her. Barbra Erwin is our bookkeeper. She keeps the schoolis finan- cial records and helps in the front office at times when she is needed. 3 28 f Administration

Guidance New classes were added to course selection. Four counselors worked diligently to provide guidance and assistance to the students. Although the number of students enrolled at Eastside remained the same, the efficiency in the office was maintained and many classes were added to our course selection. Among these were a computer science course, Naval Junior Reserve Officer Training Corp CNJROTCJ, and a lengthened construction course to help make improvements around the school. Although times were hectic, Art Stirrat, head of the department, managed to keep the office working smoothly. One of the newer staff members, Larry White, added a touch of occupational specialty which contributed greatly to students who were unsure of their future. The two counselors, JoAnn Jenkins and Lyn Addiscott, kept busy throughout the year despite the many problems that arose, such as students uncertain of what classes they needed to graduate, work permits being issued, and other various complications the student body had. 1. Filling the two roles of Athletic Director and Occu- pational Specialist, Coach White spends many hours at work. 2. Mrs. Jenkins tries to help solve one of the many problems that students come to her with. 3. Ms. Addiscott is always available to listen to any problems a student may have. 30f Guidance
