R ,lf L m jff Ljwfi .fig ,firm Foreword , -L P L iw 177 I! J Strong and pungent, the odor of ammonia greeted .loe and Jane Doakes as they walked into their chemistry class in the new PUHS Science Building. Little did they realize that today they would be selected to solve an extremely unusual problem. As the teacher spoke, the students ceased talking. Today l will show you that a chemical formula can be put to practical use. Do you think a formula can be applied to a school? Don't be startled, he continued, Aren't there various elements here at Puente that exhibit their own individual characteristics and functions? Weren't 'Operation Cooperation' and 'Kleen Kampus Drive' simi- lar to chemical reactions, after all, weren't the various elements in the school working together to produce the desired effects? Yes, stated the instructor, a chemical formula can very aptly be applied to a school. As a term proiect, I assign to the Doakes twins the problem of finding the chemical formula for PUHS. For the next month, the twins investigated every aspect of PUHS. They watched carefully how the students and faculty worked together with a minimum of conflict and disagreement both in classroom and co-curricular activities. After a month of research, during which they checked and confirmed their studies, Joe and .lane determined that eight vital elements made up Puente High. Giving each of the elements the essential chemical characteristics and supplying a symbol taken from its first two letters, they decided that even if the necessary elements were present, a school could still be mediocre like an unsuccessful chemical reaction. As an example, they cited neighboring Winterville High where the students and faculty disagreed so often that few worthwhile proiects were ever undertaken. Continuing their probing, they found that if each of the vital elements was present in the correct proportion, and if they all worked together, the de- sired reaction would result-A Successful School. To terminate their proiect, Joe and Jane finally arrived at the formula for Puente High School: Start with AD- ministration . . . stir in Student Government . . . add ACtivities and Ollganiza- tions . . . mix in AThIetics . . . pour in portions of UNderclassmen, SEniors, and SPonsors . . . SHAKE WELL . . . RESULT: A Successful School.
