Students Seek Passage Inspite Of No Through Traffic Signs It is pretty great to be here where enthusiasm is high and new traditions are being established. I enjoy and appreciate being involved during these beginning months of our new school. Wilma Steele (sec) ... The higher level is really nice to work with. The kids are extremely polite. We consider it a new venture to be sending the food to Valley View and we have very high hopes that it will work well. Arlene Stanek (cook) .. “The kids have a real good attitude about the school, they really keep it in good shape, probably because they can have more pride in their lockers, classrooms and restrooms. It is a real nice school. We were afraid it would be a lot more cleaning with all of the carpeting. but it's not so hard at all. George Von-Eschen (cust) ... I really dig all the kids and I dig the way they have all their opportunities. For example, all the many activities in the drama department areas, sports and athletics. It’s really nice. I dig all the kids-well, 99.9 per cent anyway!” Leroy Lamb (cust) I think the attitude among the students is very positive. I feel the kids are pretty honest with their excuses. Right now we are pretty open, but I hope they will come here for reasons other than cuts or bruises-l sincerely hope that they could come to talk out personal problems. Terry LaMere (assist nurse) ... I adore all of the kids and I'm not a bit surprised by them-l have four of my own. I am surprised, though, at the fantastic publications and the outstanding music, drama and audio visual departments.” Phyllis Wagner (sec) . All of four hundred kids found on the first day of the semester that they didn't know where to go first hour. There was quite a crowd in the counseling office! Juanda Larsen (sec) ..
