He spends much of his time working with student-teacher rela- tionships in an effort to close the generation gap. This year, Mr. Weiss took over attendance. Having left this job, Mr. Carrigan has more time to spend with students. He enjoys the year much more because he is able to see the stu- dent body as a whole, not just isolated cases of skippers and vandals. Mr. Carrigan feels there has been improved co-operation between teach- ers and students. On his list of duties is advisor to Student Council. He also works closely with executive board.

The school, he adds, can be only as good as the students want to make it. I believe we have a real fine student body, most are sincere and conscien- tious about learning, and most good citizens.
