For example, think back on all the times that you didn’t feel like putting your gum in a wrapper and so you just threw it down. Or the times that you didn’t quite make a jump shot to the wastebasket and didn ' t bother to follow up. Just who do you think cleans up all this mess anyway, your mother? Of course not. The janitors do it all. They not only push brooms, but they are also the ones who clean windows, scrub toilets and desks, and mop floors. So the next time you think of put¬ ting your gum under your seat, just remember that your janitor would prefer that you didn’t. The janitorial staff is not the only staff that cleans up after the students. The cafeteria workers are continually at work, cooking wholesome meals for the student body, and considering the 1200 student population and some 60 faculty members, their task is no easy one. KEEPING THINGS RUNNING Who !o always around to fix what’s broken and to keep the trash from becoming knee- deep in the halls? It’s none oth¬ er than the janitorial staff. Without this group of neat” people, PCHS would have more QUOTABLE QUOTES We’ll probably be working with slinkeys in physics class today, said Jean Castillo. I don’t slink so,” replied Gra¬ ham Witt. From Zero to Infinity; sounds like a movie.” — Mike Joyce The custodial staff includes Mr. Harry Mengeit, Mr. James King, and Mr. Dean Cruise. 16 Mini-Mag

EXCHANGING FOREIGN FRIENDSHIP Hey! Who’s that new kid?” That’s no regular kid, He’s foreign!” Really?” Yeah! That’s one of our for¬ eign exchange students. We have three this year!” Diego Groiso came to Patrick County from Buenos Aires, Ar¬ gentina. Diego stayed with Jen- nifer Moran and Patrick Springs. His interests include playing softball, soccer, skiing and wind surfing. In his spare time he likes to practice Tae Kwondo, a form of karate. Aca¬ demically he is involved in com¬ puters, electronics, and sci¬ ence. People think the American school system is much less re¬ stricted than in foreign coun¬ tries. This is not necessarily true. Diego feels there is more of a problem with property damage in his school than here. The students simply do not want to be at school. Sound fa¬ miliar? From Chile, Mary Baughan hosted Ximena Droppelman. Ximena likes reading, dancing, basketball, and swimming. In school she is interested in his¬ tory, languages, and Spanish Literature. Ximena is especially interested in the history of the United States and our fight for independence. Though she lives in the coun¬ try, Ximena attends school in Puerto Montt. She found life much different for her in Pat¬ rick County because she is ac- Finding help from Tim Britt, Spanish Club president, Diego Groiso plans his schedule for his stay at the high school. A few of Diego’s classes include AP English, Physics, and Calcu¬ lus. customed to big buildings, more stores, and the sea shore. She admitted that at first Amer¬ ica would be nice to visit, but not to stay. After living here for a few weeks, Ximena grew to like our country more and more, confessing that she could stay here for a very long time. Straight out of Lima, the cap- itol of Peru, came Leo Yagui. Leo lived with Kristen Larsen in Stuart during his stay. Leo likes to play baseball and soccer. He likes music and television and is interested in becoming an ac¬ countant. Leo liked Patrick County very much even though it is very different from life in a big city. He especially favored the fact that small town living does not include big crime problems. The students came to Amer¬ ica to learn more English, and more about America and her culture. To them, it was like stepping into another world where people had other cus¬ toms. But even though it was very strange and new, our stu¬ dents adapted, and had a great time. Coming to America will be an experience none of the ex¬ change students will forget, nor will they ever forget the new friends they made. FOR MARTY Remember me with smiles and laughter, Or don’t remember me at all. Spanish IV student, Tonya Smith, uses her spanish-speak- ing abilities to communicate with Ximena Droppleman. Xi- mena’s classes include typing and U.S. History. QUOTABLE QUOTES Nothing really seems as it appear.” — Mr. Arnold Kloock “See what I’m saying?” — Mrs. Mary Jane Taylor “Teachers, please excuse this interruption.” — Miss Bidgie Buchanan H e a R r| IN THE U HALLS What’s up?” “Do we dress out today?” What did you all do in class today? Was the test hard?” “What was on the test?” “What’s happening?” “I hate him! Have you heard it’s snow¬ ing on the mountain?” Have you heard . . . we’re going home early?!” Have you seen Graham in his nerd costume? I wouldn’t even claim that one!” “Sure!” “I believe you 100%.” Are you sure he goes to his locker now?” “Have you seen her? “Was that the tardy bell?” Is Mrs. Hazelwood here to¬ day?” Is Mr. Kloock here today?” Do you have your program ready?” “Did you study for that test!?” Are you sure she said to do 1-20 for homework? I though she said to do 1- 10! Mini-Mag 17
