ADMINISTRATION “Good mornin’ . . . Now ...” Making an¬ nouncements, enforcing legislation, pacifying par¬ ents, controlling student activities, leading teacher associations, and various other tasks entail only small portion of Mr. Mason’s day. Although we rarely realize his importance, Mr. Mason is Stuart’s middle name. Whether he is sowing the seeds of wisdom at an assembly or merely intro¬ ducing the morning announcements, he is a defi¬ nite figure of our school’s personality. Without him our student body would be like a football team without its coach. “Mr. Todd would like to see ...” Although he may seem somewhat like a prosecuting attorney, Mr. Todd is actually very understanding. He not only has the job of making sure the detention halls are full, but also makes certain that the students know the “why” behind school rules. An interest in school activities has given Mr. Todd exceptional insight in the field of student discipline, not to men¬ tion some talent in traffic direction and issuing parking permits. Yet whatever he may do—and his activities vary widely—he performs his duties to the satisfaction of all. Breezy, bustling Mr. Arndt seems to have a smile for everyone, whether he’s zooming around school programming aptitude tests, outlining a substitute teacher’s day, or scheduling a field trip. A familiar sight at Stuart, he is famous for finding owners for studentless books, or vice-versa. Work¬ ing along with Mr. Mason and Mr. Todd, Mr. Arndt completes the team of top administrative echelon at Stuart. W. Leon Mason, Principal 14 Edward J. Arndt, Assistant Principal Thomas D.
