QQ fa Nr av Ge Qff6Leaders achieve goals Being promoted from counselor to Dean has made Brenda Bias year enjoyable. She enjoys working with students and their parents as well. The students really try to understand everything I tell them. They except both praise and criticism with enthusiasm states Bias. Bias is also involved with many other acitivites such as B.S.U. a cultural group. This group concentrates on raising money to put on such activities as the Martin Luther King assembly. Brenda is a great lady. We work well together and I enjoy her company, says fellow dean Dan Kenley. Kenley has been Dean at Lincoln for four years. Over the years, he has achieved many goals and has more in mind for upcoming years. He is currently working on and im- proving the tardy and detention policies. The new tardy policy is working out well. Except that there is no separation between excused and unexcused tardies, says Senior Jill Jordon. Another very important administrative figure this year was principal Dean Welin. A veteran at Lincoln for 5 years, Welin understands the importance of working closely with the board, administrators, and students. I think the environment be- tween students and teachers is fantastic, and I hope this excel- lence in communications continues, said Welin. W 105 it wi ,T ' 216 Principal and Deans S 1

C7 stty ts go Counselors Support kids Dr. .loan Wolucka, A former Lincoln graduate, is current- ly employed in our counciling department. When I went to school, the counseling was almost non-existent be- cause the school was so small, said Dr. Wolucka. The staff as a whole should be more supportive towards pro- grams such as conflict management, which Dr. Wolucka supports tremendously, as the school population contin- ues to grow. I have a tremendous respect for the large number of students able to cope as well as they do with the difficult life situations that they face, ' stated Dr. Wo- Iucka. The major intent of the counseling department is to provide more career information and career exploration for the students. Mr. O'DeII, Vice-Principal, commented that the counseling office wants to encourage the kids to take scholastic risks, such as taking college prep classes that challenge their minds. Some of this years accomplishments of the department were to initiate a new data processing system. They've also been able to deliver more services to the students as far as counseling goes, because they're spending less time changing schedules. I felt encouraged seeing more stu- dents striving for excellence and continuing to be con- cerned about the world they and their children will live in and many of those concerned folks are making effort to do something about it, stated Mr. O'DeII.
