Mrs. Adams teaches several math courses, but is best known as the calculus teacher. We have often seen her in the faculty plays, but she is not as well known as the choreo- grapher of our student musi- cals. A student watches as Mr. Agostini zooms in on a pro- tozoa. He is a biology teacher who moonlights on the golf course as golf team coach. This year his team brought in 8 out of 10 victories. Bio. Club members remember his football manuevers at the annual pic- nics. Mr. Allebach, head of the phy- sical education department, wel- comes students to his health class. He coaches ninth grade soccer and basketball. Mrs. Bartlett smilingly assigns a grade to a student ' s drama performance. She is an English teacher and co-sponsor of the Class of 1979. Mrs. Bigler pointedly explains a verb conjugation to her Spanish class. She also teaches Comparative European Lit. Her activities as sponsor of IFC keep her busy after school. It ' s bur chur, not bo chur. Mrs. Boettjer remarks in frustration. She teaches all levels of Spainish and sponsors Girls ' Leaders and the ETP program. The English department is privi- liged to have a new male teacher. This year Mr. Brophy taught many English courses including Business English and College Writing. E uring the winter he assists Mr. Diorka with the track team. Jim McKay listens attentively as Mrs. Cala- bro goes over a lesson, which could be any- thing from Consumer Ed. to Advanced Sew- ing. She often spends her free periods with sewers involved in Supplementary Clothing. After school she co-sponsors the cheerleaders. We all remember Mr. -Campbell from General Wayne. He says he finds stu- dents at Great Valley comparatively mature. He teaches courses such as Contemporary Lit. and Written Argu- ment and sponsors the Stage Crew. 94 Academics

Mrs.BravoHasTraveled Around The World Many of us had Mrs. Bravo for IPS in ninth grade, but we may not know that she has travel- led around the world. She has visited schools in the Far East, where education is not compul- sory. She felt that because of this they work harder at their education and appreciate it more. Mrs. Bravo loves teaching. She marvels at the potential of the kids. She feels the most re- warding aspect of teaching is watching the stu- dents grow up. She meets us when we come in as ninth graders and watches us mature to seniors. Outside the classroom, Mrs. Bravo spoils her four precocious grandchildren. She enjoys cooking, sewing, andmacrame. Anyone who has ever been in her classroom would realize that she loves plants as well as her students. Mr. Baker, where are your safety glasses? As head of the shop department, Mr. Baker should know better. Here he watches as a student works on a lathe. Mr. Baker sponsors the Ski Club and always travels with them to Vermont. A new addition to the art department f ' aculty is Miss Bowers. Here she offers constructive criti- cism concerning a student ' s preliminary sketches. She is also co-sponsor of Pep Club. P T The responsibility of teaching all le- vels of aerospace belongs to Col. Cap- Ian. He arranges many interesting field trips and speakers for his students. Out- side the classroom he works with the Coin Club, Model, and Rocketry Club and drill team. 1 Head basketball coach, Mr. Clark, puts in many long hours at Great Valley. In the spring he busies himself as baseball ' s assistant coach. Not only does he teach math all day, but he spends more eve- nings than not at practices and games. Mrs. Cochran is a new teacher in the business department. She teaches typing part-time. Academics 95
