Semm keeps office running W. hen you ' ve done something for so long it becomes routine, end it mal es it a lot easier, This is how Dionno Semm, Northwest secretary, explained she keeps things organized In the office. Semm, a 1965 graduate of Northwest, has worked here for 17 years. The secretary she aided in high school, Rogene Spaid, recommended her for a job after deciding to further her teaching career. DIanna Semm attends to one of her many duties. Since the September follow- ing her graduation, Semm has started her workday at 7;45 a.m. During first and second period, she alphabetizes the attendance and lunch count and works with blue passes and make-up slips. Until the last half hour of school, Semm said she works on whatever comes into the office. The last half hour of school is left for the next day ' s bulletin. According to Semm everyone needs something to get away from it all. The way she gets away is to go bowling and read.

Each year a new class of students come through the front doors of this school to experience what more than 3000 students have experienced during the past 19 years — the first day Jitters. From that point until the day they graduate, they will collect a picturebook full of memories. As the first dance of the year takes place shortly after school begins, many students find themselves going out on a date for the first time The year advances quickly and everyone becomes involved with a peer group in one way or another — whether it be through a club, cheering at sports events, or even through a classroom activity. Juniors find them- selves being placed in a role of manager as they organize the Prom. These three years of school give each person the ability to learn about himself, but even more than this, it helps students to take a good look into their futures. 86 Faces Division
