Custodians And Cafeteria Aides This year many students be- lieved that Park Forest was kept clean and in good repair by magical genies who appeared during the night. And, in part, that may have been true, be- cause most of our genies worked the 3-9:30 p.m. shift. The custodians prepared the building for dances and Fun Night, cleaned the classrooms, swept the floors, removed tons of gum from furniture and wa- ter fountains, 'emptied the bas- 4' kets, and washed the black- boards. And these were only their lighter tasks. The lunchroom aides arrived early each morning to set about the preparation of meals for the cafeteria. Their chores in- cluded receiving food deliv- eries, washing the trays and other kitchen items, preparing recipes that called for huge quantities of ingredients, bak- ing ahead for future meals, serving the meals to picky eat- ers, and cleaning up after each lunch session. And all of this was carried out with smiles and lots of crazy jokes. The people who work as custo- dians and lunchfaides don't of- ten receive plaudits for their work, but without them Park Forest could not survive for long.

Stories were read and discussed by the students who also read plays and studied grammar. Eighth grade classes enjoyed stories and plays such as THE DAY MUST DAWN and On Bor- rowed Time.
