Staff Maintains sense of humor H. Ross Perot, new legislation, House Bill 72, and the lack of classroom space in the high school would be enough to depress any facutly, but PHS high school teachers hung and clung together. They listened to each other's complaints and tears and then tried hard to bolster each other up. The Phantom, a secret morale booster showed up many times, leaving greeting cards or small gifts in the mail boxes of teachers who had especially tough weeks. Coach David Wiley s Student Council tried to show that teachers don't have to wait years to see that they made a mark by sponsoring “Teacher Ap- preciation Week.'' New resource teacher Susan Mankus lead her classes in a program designed to help teachers and staff with small projects like writing captions for the yearbook photographers. Even though students did their part trying to help teachers keep their spirits up, the faculty found that the best way to keep smiling was to par ticipate in student sponsored events. Morning pep rallies found teachers volunteering their egos and prides to participate in various skits and gimmicks. This lively spirit added to the atmosphere; jokes poured forth, comics and cartoons plastered the lounge walls. The faculty and staff seemed to recognize that another swing of the eternal pen- dulum stemming from the educational fulcrum had made its mark. Keeping their senses of humor, the staff made it through yet another and difficult year. Athletic Booster Club meetings were a time for planning money making strategies and preparing for publicity In between all the work, Coach Bill Varian sneaks one of his puns into the conversation and Coach Greg Ems shows his appreciation for Coach Varian's sense of humor.

Last spring construction began on a new junior high school located southwest of the high school. Foundation was poured in January of 1985, and by March the walls had gone up. Construction of the new addition to the high school also began last spring. Students and faculty watched as the cranes moved in to position con- crete slabs poured to form the walls of the new building. From the east windows, students watched workmen. The jack hammers arrived in March to break up forms used in forming walls. Rubble left outside near the windows added a surrealistic at- mosphere to classes on the east side of the building. Besides the new construction other plans were put together by this year’s school board. Bonds were presented to the public and passed. Trying to stay ahead of the constant influx of people, Mr. Robert Spoonemore, charts the growth to help plan for school growth. Handling and managing Pflugerville I.S.D. money falls under the responsibility of Mr.Turner. Routing buses and taking care of school maintenance became the responsibility of Mr. John Daude last spring when he was hired by the school board. School Board members were Tom Pfluger, Theo Timmerman, Doug Monzingo, Dennis Reese, Tim Warren, and Don Weiss. 136 ADMINISTRATION
