The smooth operation of the school depended heavily upon the leadership of the 127-member staff. Consisting of 103 teachers, 14 secretaries, 6 coun- selors, 2 assistant principals, administrative intern, ac- tivities director, nurse, two librarians, and vocational rehabilitation director, the school personnel was com- pleted by 24 cafeteria workers and 19 custodial work- ers. In addition to the duties of teaching and sponsor- ing extra-class activities, faculty members enjoyed family responsibilities and participated in church and community activities. They crowded into their busy lives courses to complete higher degrees, and they took time out for travel, relaxation, and hobbies.
