Teaching at N.H.S. entails much more than six hours of classroom instruction. Most of the teachers on the staff sponsor classes and clubs in their many activities through the year. Our coaches, too, have a big undertaking with many hours of practice and work-out. All these extra activities add to their already big responsibility of teaching, which includes their own homework of preparing lessons and tests, and grading papers and essays. In the summer months, many faculty members take advanced college courses and attend work- shops to further their education. Weekly meetings and committee work aid teachers in broadening their professional outlook. Devotion to arts, civic activities, church, and home characterizes the out- side interests of our superior teaching staff.

and supplies are essential. Efficiency and friendliness are characteristics of the bookstore clerks, custodians, and bus drivers. They are the people behind the scenes who give us our supplies, keep our school clean, and get our rural students to school ... on time. The bookstore is open mornings and noons selling paper, pencils, notebooks, and all other supplies at nominal cost to the students. It also is the headquarters from which workbooks, sup- plementary to many courses, may be purchased. Trying to keep our enviroment pleasing is a major undertaking when it entails all the little jobs that are demanded of the custodians at N.H.S. Eddie and Eldon accomplish practically every little job in the book from repairing the miniature parts of a pencil sharpener to waxing and polishing the acre of tile that we mark up every day; and they're never too busy to unlock the door after hours for a frustrated student who finds he has forgotten his chemistry book. Without these personalities, our world of friends would not be complete. Suz.o Calbeck. Carol Hollar. Pam Phillips.
