The guidance department had to re-evaluate programs of all students. The music department saw the addition of two adult musicians who assisted Mr. Thorne with the band. Mr. Co-muroski was assistant band director and also gave brass lessons. Giving the drum line instruction during the marching season was Mr. Cinotte, who was also drum instructor for the jazz band. Two new classes were introduced this year into the curriculum. German was taught by Mrs. Kusek who used satellite communication to enhance the program. Ms. Drechsel started a new semester art class which replaced ceramics. The class of 3-D not only included 1. Mr. Briddick finds time between checking sea son passes to watch a few plays on the football field. 2. Cafeteria duty is a job assigned to some of the teachers. Mr. Jergens appears to have found an unidentified object in his coffee. clay, but also leather, dough art, and papermaking. The special education department reached its maximum class size allowed by the state. With the large number of students, Ms. Schweickert enlisted the help of Mrs. Linnig and Mrs. Crickman. They were of valuable assistance to students and Ms. Schweickert. Increased requirements for college entrants resulted in a greater emphasis placed on pre-college classes. Suffering, in turn, were the vocational education enrollments. Fewer numbers caused some classes to be cancelled and others combined. 22 Faculty
