The two secretaries of the main office are Miss Barbara Graesar and Miss Ruth Chesney. They are checking the I. B. M. figures for the report periods. Among the many ways in which Miss Graesar and Miss Chesney help the students are preparing absentee lists, and homeroom notices, and the periodic report every nine weeks. Students’ letters of recommendation and college transcripts are important duties of theirs also. 10 Mr. White, who is principal for the first time this year, has steered us in keeping Jefferson what it has always been. He is always willing to help us with our schedule or any other problems we might have. Although this is his first year as principal, he has been asso- ciated with Jefferson from 1941 to 1958. He was assistant principal from 1959 to 1961. He has helped to create the best and most contagious school spirit Jefferson has ever had, and our school will progress under his leadership. Boys’ Attendance Mr. Paul H. Steagall, who is in charge of the Boys’ Attendance Office, gets off to an early start as he fills out absentee slips after checking students’ notes from home for being absent the previous day. Regular at- tendance, on time, is stressed in order to maintain a good scholastic average. Mr. Steagall is also a business teacher and is the first city school coordinator of the I. B. M. System. The preceding page features heads of the different teaching departments of Jefferson, making plans for the 1962 school year. They are— Mr. Sizer, Assistant Principal and Business Manager; Mr. Byrd, Head of the Physical Education Department; Mr. Wilson, Head of the Science Department; Mr. Comer, Head of the History Department; Mr. White, Principal of Jefferson; Miss Stalker, Head of the Math Department; Mrs. Dorsey, Head of the English Department; Mr. Maier, Head of the Printing Department. Not pictured is Miss Chambers, Head of the Business Department. These departmental chairmen work closely with the other teachers in their departments coordinating courses of study and making current plans. They also work closely with administrators and with their own classes and individual students.
