Overseeing the requi- sition and purchase of supplies, supervising trans- portation, and directing the maintenance of build- ings and grounds throughout the school system are among his responsibilities, Mr. Hoff is a graduate of Tulane University with a bachelors' degree in Business Administra- tion, HRS. OLLEE LEE Secretary to the Superintendent MISS GLORIA LANE Secretary to the Principal Much of the activity taking place at McComb High School is centered around the office and it would be impossible to enumerate all the duties and responsibilities at the two office secretaries. They perform many tasks of an educational nature, thus releasing the administrators for purely professional duties. Mrs. Ollee Lee, Secretary to the Superintendent, has served in that capa- city during the tenure of'three superintendents. Mrs. Lee is a long-time resident of McComb and is a graduate of the McComb High School. Miss Gloria Lane is a product of McComb High School and has been em- ployed as Secretary to the Principal since her high school graduation in 1955.

Many teachers on the McComb High School taculty devote time everyday to special assignments. Supervision of cafeteria lines and ot the hallways are extra-curricular obligations tor the teachers. They act as chaperones at school dances and other school-sponsored activities such as Choral Festival, Youth Congress, and the state Classical Conference tor Latin stu- dents. Sponsorship of the student newspaper, the yearbook, and of clubs take up much of teachers' time after school and on week-ends. Advisors are present during meetings, activities, and field trips to offer guidance. Directing re- hearsals ot plays, assemblies, recitals, and oth- er programs require many hours, and in ad- dition, instructors give time to students requir- ing extra help or make-up work.
