Office Staff Mrs. Terry Hile, more commonly known as Judy to the students and teachers, is the present school secre- tary. This is Judy's fourth year as secretary at PHS. Judy graduated with the class of 1966 and was a mem- ber of the Tri-Hi-Y during her senior year. Throughout high school Mrs. Hile was a member of the FBLA, Student Council, and the Office Staff. Although Judy has 11 assistants, they all are kept busy - from giving out aspirins to running off stencils. Truly the office is the center of our present school life. Some go there with much pleasure, while others dread their visit. Mrs. Hile and her helpers are to be commended on their effort and the help they have given the school.

HAROLD SHAFFER Advisor - NHS Subjects - World History, American History Degree - MA, WVU We cannot escape history, said Abraham Lincoln, and the Social Studies Department makes this quotation evident in their classes. Students come to realize that a knowledge of the modern world and its governmental structures and ideologies is important to the life of each individual. To deepen each pupil's understanding of how this weald became what it is, classes in American history, world history, world geography, civics, and problems of democracy are taught.

The English Department works zealously to prepare each student in communication skills and to in- still an appreciation for literature and its relationship to life. The English teachers approach their classes with a determination to help them gain a good literary vocabul- ary, and to express themselves grammatically well.
