SHS teachers put in many extra hours The teachers at Seaholm put in many hours beyond the call of duty to help the students, to make a better school. Many teachers spend much time after school giving individual help to students experiencing difficulties with certain phases of their work. This is the most obvious example of their extra effort. ln addition, the faculty feels an extra strain when pupils are absent. They must write up new tests, they must proctor the absentee students, they must aid the students in making up their work. But again, the obligation is purely a moral one. Lesson plans are a time consuming chore not immediately apparent. Never- theless, any well run class requires them, It might also be remembered that a test which only takes an hour to complete in class often requires five or six hours to write and correct. To create a fuller school life, teachers volunteer to spend time with extra- curricular activities. Every club needs a teacher to sponsor each of its meetings. Every school dance, every play requires adult chaperoning. J-Hop in particular requires teacher assistance. All senior activities are guided by teachers as well as students. Field Day involves many teachers on the committees and in the home- rooms. Also money raising drives and class finances have teachers overseeing the organization. Last but not least, homeroom and all associated activities place far reaching responsibilities upon the teacher. Going beyond the call of duty, Miss Ecklund, a new mathematics teacher, stays late after school to help students like Doug Moore, Dave Mazur, Bill Holmes, Bill Wertz and John Aulgur.

To better acquaint the old teach- ers with the new members of the faculty, a pot- luck dinner was arranged in the fall. Under the capable supervision of chairmen Mrs. Cortright, Mrs. Kinnison, and Mrs. Ladd, this social gather- ing succeeded in introducing everyone. Serving as Mistress of Ceremonies, Miss Price conducted the evening. Mrs. Nichols of the art department made the event more festive with many artistic decorations. Since all members of each family of each teacher were invited to attend, the potluck was a truly old-fashioned affair. The dinner lasted approximately two hours. Again at Christmas time, the administration and board of education sponsored the annual Christ- mas Tea in the Maple Room. All personnel in the Birmingham School District were invited to attend this social function. The Seaholm Madrigals, under the direction of Mr. Jones, sang several numbers at the tea. The Seaholm orchestra also performed. As Mr. Mclnnes waits his turn, fellow football coach Mr. Lemle accepts a cup of coffee.
