cc ak Park has been not only conscious of, but a leader in change. This was the way Dr. Larry Cornine, vice-principal, ration- alized the changes made at Oak Park for the 79-80 school year. Many of the changes were obvious, but some were subtle and went almost unnoticed. One of the big changes students noticed from the startwas the 7:45 a.m. starting time. That short 15 minutes did make a difference, evidenced by the increased number of late arrivals. Two major curriculum changes were the introduction of the Business Theme School and the Advanced College Credit Program. The Business Theme School had trouble getting started because not all of the equipment ordered arrived at the beginning of school and, according to Mr. Bob West, vice-principal, there was an imbalance in the number of students from three district high schools. The ACCP had very few flaws throughout the year, except for a brief uncertainty over the transferring of the college credit. A virtually unnoticed change which took place for the district and Oak Park was the new computer system for scheduling described by Mr. West as, very competent. ,. f'j v ' My.
