Administration-121 — ADMINISTRATION Taking a quick break to pose for the camera is Mrs. Robbie Porter. Mrs. Porter was very busy planning the senior activities. Kicking hack for a quiet minute on the phone is Mr Paul PoetSCh. Mr Poetsch was responsible for all )uniors and a portion of the freshmen. Without Administration, what would our school be? The administrative staff works hard to keep our school running smoothly. Leading the way is our new principal, Mr. Mike Pisan. Mr. Pisan loves his job even though it is very time consuming. He enjoys attending all the school activities and sharing in the students' successes. Mr. Larry Lund, our assistant spends most of his time helping Mr. Pisan with duties such as observing classes and evaluating teachers. Head of the guid- ance department, Mr. Jerry Fitzpatrick, also has a very busy job. He is in charge of discipline and attendance, and also helps to develop the master schedule. Establishing policies for our school district are Superintendent Earl Ferguson and Assistant Super- intendent Jerry Killingsworth. These two very busy men help in getting budgets passed and having positive communication between schools and the community. Paul Poetsch Talking with Tiffany Stanfill is counselor Leroy Christopher- scn. Mr. Christophersen helped many just by being a friend. Breaking away from his paperwork to smile for the camera is Athletic Director Ron Conner. Organizing all school activities was the job of Mr. Conner. Robbie Porter The major change is more positive commu- nications between stu- dents. staff, and the community. The three counselors we have here at Mazama seem never to Finish their work. There is always more and more to do. Mrs. Robbie Porter, senior counselor, is in charge of handing out scholarships and organizing all graduation activities. Mr. Paul Poetsch and Mr. Leroy Christophersen are each in charge of one class plus a section of the freshmen, along with having many more various responsibil- ities. Mr. Ron Conner, athletic director, and Mrs. Winnie DeWitt, librarian, are also vital members of the administrative staff. Mr. Conner plans and at- tends all athletic events, student activities, and school fund raisers. Mrs. DeWitt orders and orga- nizes library materials while taking on the extra task of being rally advisor. You can see that without these very important and busy people, Mazama would not be as orga- nized and pleasant to attend. Thanks Administra- tion! The majority of the staff and student body arc much more positive this year and 1 think it's great!
