Even though students were in the spotlight, there were many other impor¬ tant people who helped them to shine. There were the people in school, which in¬ cluded teachers and administrators, and there were the people out of school, the parents. Both were of equal importance to a student’s high school life. The parents of Potomac had an essential role in our school and shared a big part in all of its activities. It was the parents who were the volunteers at Potomac. The duties they performed ranged from conces¬ sion stands at football games to pulling schedules for the new school year; from chaperoning dances to organizing clubs such as the Booster Clubs. Parents could be compared to cheerleaders. They loved you when you did well and even when you didn’t. The faculty of our school was definitely one of a kind. They lit up students’ lives by challenging their minds and making sure the school ran smoothly. The teachers aid¬ ed the school by encouraging and helping each student to reach his highest potential. In addition to teaching, our teachers coach¬ ed sports activities, chaperoned dances, and sponsored clubs. The administrators were the foundation of our school. They organized and supervized all the opera¬ tions of the school and made sure that every student stayed in line. Our school is made up of many people. In order for it to run smoothly and for everyone to receive all its benefits, we must work together. The faculty and parents of Potomac showed this every day by giving it their all to make Potomac Totally Electrifying. Many teachers, besides teaching, also coach sports ac¬ tivities. Here, Ms. Barnhart, the girls’ track coach, records stats for her team. For Mr. Ferrebee, Potomac is a new school. But even though he hasn ' t been here long, he was glad to speak to the class of ’83 as they graduated.
