Preceptors Many years after students leave North WASHINGTON: President Ronald Reagan and Supreme Court Iustice Sandra Day O'Connor walked outside to pose for photographers after she was sworn in on September 26. O'Connor, a 51-year-old former Arizona appeals court judge, was the first woman to be nominated to the court in its 191-year history. Although the far right attempted to marshall opposi- tion to her confirmation because of a pro-abortion vote she cast as a member of the Arizona legislature, she was approved by the Senate, 99-0. High, they remember with fondness a teacher who took extra-time to be a friend, to give them additional knowledge, to ex- plain a complicated procedure to force them to complete a difficult task, to show them they care about who they were, what they learned, and where they were going. Often when this occurs, the student and teacher have drifted far apart and it is too late for a verbal expression of appreciation. For this reason a group of students at North, the Key Club, attempt each year on behalf of all students, past and present, to say thanks to the faculty and staff for the tremendous effort they put forth. This year these feelings were conveyed at an Ap- preciation Breakfast held on Monday, Ianuary 18 in the North Cafeteria. After a meal of eggs, grits, sausage, and biscuits, and a short program was presented by Key Club officers, Russ Carver, Linwood Schultz, and Iohn Kanell. Mr. Stan Mulford, Key Club advisor, the guest speaker, told of the history, goals, and pur- poses of Key Club and how the Teacher Appreciation Breakfast was a way for the Key Club members to applaud all the teachers for their efforts in and out of the classroom. During the breakfast, nine plaques were presented to teachers chosen by junior and senior students as outstanding educators at North High. These teachers were each designated as a 'Key Club Teacher-of-the- Month. A great way to say a very big thank-you to some very special people. 40 f Events i T 1 - Winners of the 1982 Teacher of the Month awards line up with their hosts, the members of North's Key Club. 2 - Teachers en10y their early morning breakfast courtesy of the Key Club.

FLORIDA: The space shuttle Columbia lifted off from Kennedy Space Center on November 12, 1981.
