Administration The Administration has had a busy year with bond issues and all the typical problems that come up in the running of a high school. Principal Stan Peerboom was honored by the faculty at the end of the year for his ten years of service as principal. He is backed up by Vice-Principal Larry Wallace who is also an excellent wrestling coach but who will give up that post next year to devote all his time to the vice-principal job. Secretary Amy Busack was unfortunately ill much of the year and the staff did not have a picture of her to put in the book. She was ably replaced by her daughter Miss Marilyn Busack. Fortunately Mrs. Busack was able to return at the end of the year. Vice-Principal Larry Wallace runs the office. Principal Stan Peerboom has been on the job ten years. 7

Faculty Presents “Teacher Of The Year” Contest 'You know once when I was a kid way back when . . .” says Mr. Allen. You want to change your schedule again? groans Mr. Anderson. The 1973-74 school year saw the addition of six new teachers to our faculty: Mrs. Jan Stauffer (Busi- ness Education and Home Economics), Mr. Jim Baird (Business Education), Mrs. Anne Romey (Reading Intern), Mr. Richard Lance (Instrumental Music Intern), Miss Kay Beck (Science), and Mr. Mike Smithey (Social Studies and Science). The men on the faculty formed a winning basket- ball team and took first place in the Community Schools tournament. The men also formed a base- ball team and played a losing game against the varsity team (6-5). The group seemed a bit more social this year as they met in each others homes for a Mexican Dinner, a Spaghetti Feed, an unveiling of a painting, and a salmon bake. The year ended with another great faculty variety show— to choose the teacher of the year. A very close decision gave the honors to Mike Smithey for his costume and violin talent. Teachers were judged for talent, beauty, and intelligence. The show also fea- tured a folk singing group and a jug band. Mr. Smithey received an expense paid trip to Goble to a workship on teaching the twisted mind. Enough money was raised for three scholarships. This being Stan Peerboom’s tenth year as princi- pal of the Rainier High School, a plaque was pre- sented to him at a reception after school with cake and coffee in recognition of his dedicated service. ‘This is my green ‘plant-growing’ thumb grins Miss Beck. t 9 Mr. Baird takes time out for a picture.
