King of the Jungle Every jungle has its king. In this case, the “King of the Jungle” is Mr. Frank Scaglione. From crowning the Homecoming king and queen, to finalizing the closed campus case, the job of principal is very important. Deep within the main office lies Mr. Scaglione's office, where one might find him between his busy schedules of supervising the school and attending county level meetings. He can also be found walking the halls, greeting students — many be first name. He never fails to recognize student's accomplishments and is always willing to help those in need. His pride in King shows in his radiant smile, and he is always happy to meet a new face. If one is curious to know who turns the wind-up key. he should go visit our principal, Mr. Scaglione.

Failure to take and pass these tests can hinder students considerably. In tenth grade, the student must make the first attempt at the SSAT and pass in order to receive a high school diploma. If the test is failed, the stu- dent may try again in eleventh and twelfth grades. In eleventh grade, the juniors have the PSAT. This is not a mandatory test, but a helpful one because it prepares the student for the SAT. which is needed to enter'college. The SAT is taken during the last semester of eleventh grade or the beginning of twelfth grade. So no matter which level of high school students are in, they are always prep. .or a test.

January or June? When it becomes the beginning of a student’s senior year, some have the often-hard choice of January or June graduation This brings out the option of leaving their school friends behind, and heading out early into the real world. If a student starts out the twelfth grade with enough credits, they are offered the option of early graduation. If ac- cepted, they complete one semester of their senior year. But they are still able to enjoy walking with their friends on Graduation Day. So often the student comes to the important question January or June? Theresa Harris and Jynine Young Mr Scaglione congratulates Yvette Flores on qualifying for being a January graduate The Mod Squad As new students looked down the hall, they saw someone scurrying away talking into a walkie-talkie, who was it? It was probably one of the deans. The deans patrolled the halls making sure the highest possible disciplinary standards were met. However, patrolling the halls was not the deans' only job. The deans kept records of each student's enrollment, withdrawals, absences, and petitions, and made sure each stu- dent conducted himself in the proper manner. The deans serv- ed as counselors as well as administrators of punishment and protected students' rights. They made sure that the school's atmosphere was conducive to learning as well as relaxing when needed. Jynine Young Mr Mmthorn has fun while keeping order at annual Lton's Roar 240 Academics
