s orming lasting relationships with avorite Teachers They taught me a lot that will help me in lzfe and they were there to just be a friend. -junior Bruce Eady Everyone had a favorite teacher, whether it was in the second grade or last year's gym teacher. Although it was hard to imagine a teacher being human, much less being a friend, there were some students who had favorite teachers. My favorite teacher was in the seventh grade, said junior Alicia Walker. She motivated me to go beyond the limitations I had set for myself, pro- vided encouragement and helped me realize my po- tential to set my goals. It was hard for many to think back and remember all their teachers. In a period of twelve years one could have up to seventy teachers. Spending on the average of 16,200 hours in school, almost more time than they spent with their parents, students got to know a teacher well. My third grade teacher had to be my favorite teacher! said junior Denise Suttee. He was more fun than the rest of the teachers: he made Ieaming fun. Many agreed that having teachers pay extra attention to students made Ieaming fun and easy, but it didn't always tum out that way. 'LAt first I didn't like my favorite teacher: after I had her for awhile, she was neat! said junior Jamie Smith. She wasn't as strict as other teachers and I learned a lot. I looked forward to going to class for a change. Many teachers often felt that the student who was the most satisfactory to work with was the student who was excited about Ieaming and furthering his or her education. A lot of times I didnlt understand what I was doing. All I had to do was ask for help, said senior Eric Oden. She would help me until I understood by giving me extra notes and information. Sometimes a favorite wasn't always a teacher, but a principal or librarian or someone who was instrumental in helping the students. My favorite wasn't a teacher, but a secretary, said senior Toni Battles. She was the one who pointed me in the right direction. We couldn't have done it without the special people who took the time to listen and gave us answers we could understand. These special people shared their knowledge and took the time to care, for seldom more than a thank you. ife-Breath.

Principals were a very important element of the school because they kept everything working smoothly, disciplined those who needed it and kept communication lines open between the students, parents, teachers and other administrators. Being senior principal can be tough because some are completing one phase of their life while others plan to further their education, said Mrs. Pat Flippin, senior principal. You have to give guidance to both groups, but it is a very rewarding and challenging job. Somtimes a principal was a friend to talk to in a time ofneed or trouble. It's a joy to see students grow and develop into adulthood, said Mr. Glen Moore, head principal. Mr. Moore had the tremendous task of supervising the workings of the entire high school. Signaling principals became so commonplace that many students probably weren't even aware ot' the system. Morse code-type signals which were broadcast over the inter- com were used instead of announc- ing the person's name. Mr. Bill Merryman and Mr. Chuck Wood administered to the needs ofthe juniors. Mr. Merryman was the junior principal for those students with names beginning with the letter A-K, while Mr. Wood was the principal for juniors L-Z. A new principal to the system, Mrs. Shirley Lassiter, served as the senior attendance principal. She also helped Mrs. Flippin with many of the senior tasks. Being a principal meant not always being liked. It was a hard job for anyone, but ours met the challenge. 'Zu icket Attendant. On ticket day.
