1 ONE OF THE GOOD GUYS Principal 7. Mr. Stewart is some what serious when advising Tracey Laney regarding disci- pline. 2. Displaying a concerned expression, Principal Don Stewart, tends to busi- ness at the Annual Homecoming Carni- val. 3. Words of concern for the student body are expressed by principal, Donald Stewart, at a fall P. T.A. meeting Many students thought of principals as being the Bad Guy. This was a common misconception. Our principal, Mr. Donald Stewart, was actually on the side of the student. Mr. Stewart could often be seen observing a wave of stu- dent activities. He was at most sports events and after school activities encouraging the teams toward victory and the clubs toward success. So often Mr. Stewart was blamed for a rough sea of changes in the school such as the new grading scale, which rocked the boat, by making 70 the lowest passing grade. One should not have jumped to this conclusion until one knew all the facts. The new grading scale was mandated by the State Board of Education of Georgia. Mr. Stewart was always open to suggestion, such as having pep rally, and willing to help the student body in order to stop any mutiny. So with a closer look at the captain of our ship, Mr. Stewart, one would see that he was really one of the good guys. Brandt Haney 3 10 ADMINISTRATION

THE SHADOW KNOWS Assistant Principal As the final bell rang for students to be in class, the wave of students emptied the halls, and those that were late tried to slide into class. But wait, whats that? A dark shadow lurking around the corner. Could it be a tardy student, or a teacher on break? This was what ran through the head of tardy student. It was neither a student or a teacher, but the assistant principal trying to catch students skipping class. Catching students skipping class was only one of a flood of jobs the assistant principals had to per- form. Some of the other tasks included disciplining stu- dents, and keeping the student body in order, which was a difficult job in itself. They also had to look after school when the principal, Mr. Donald Stewart, was away. Who were these mysterious shadows? Assistant princi- pal, Ms. Dorinda Duggan, and acting assistant principals Mr. Larry Burke, and Ms. Jeri Williams were the coura- geous warriors who fought their way through each hectic school day. So if we ever felt as if we were in the ocean being stalked by a shark, we better have a good excuse for being late, because we might be surprised to find that the shadow knows. Brandt Haney 7.
