Though it is known that Glenn High started from scratch and has up to a well-respected high school in only two years, few students know the shoulders that the responsibilities and blame have fallen on. The man behind the scenes, taking the rap but seldom the credit, is Mr. Carl Clarke. He has been a principal for ten years and an assistant principal for seven. He was here when the transformation, junior high to high school, was made. Though the responsibilities of high school are more in number and harder to handle, he has been able to make the new high Clarke: The Man Behind the Principal school run smoothly. When asked about the heaviest respon- sibilities as a principal, Mr. Clarke replied, My toughest re- sponsibility is being the decision- maker and the one who has all the answers. I have to have a tough skin and not let the criti- cism get me down. Being a teacher and a princi- pal takes much preparation: A bachelor's degree at Appala- chian, a Master's at UNC, a cer- tification of administration at UNC-G, and an EDS degree at Appalachian have paid off in Mr. Clarke's knowledge of educa- tion, but even that much school- ,- tiff JZ, -Vp fi if f Mr. Carl Clarke Principal, ASU, UNC-G Mr, Nick Smothers Asst.

Mr. Clarke - the principal, the decision-maker, and the per- son - all three faces are re- vered and respected. In all re- spects, he is a person worth knowing as a leader and as a friend.

They cre- ate the aura and attitude that exists among the student body. However, their job is not an easy one. Their days are filled with grumbling students, an infinite number of papers to grade, and periodical headaches. To illus' trate the true hardships of a teacher, the GlennEchoes Staff asked two teachers to give us their schedules. First, we asked Mrs. Buckner, who recently had a baby and travels from Carver to Glenn as well as classroom to classroom to teach Latin.
