The teachers and administrators, in loco parentis, are probably one of the most impor- tant group of people in a student's life. By offering advice and guidance, they have helped in planning a future for all those seek- ing it. As they try to render assistance, as well as to set examples, they look for the best in every pupil whether it be in character or personality. Their help has been almost im- measurable. They encourage students to pur- sue a career suited for them. They try to help the student understand diFficult subiects and help him improve his grades. Although it is often not realized, the teachers put in a lot of hard work both during and after school. Their task as a teacher or an administrator is never ending. There are always questions to be an- swered, tests to be given, schedules to be made out, etc. Although there is much hard work, the teachers and administrators are re- warded by the friendship, respect, and admi- ration of the students. 6

A TRIBUTE TO SKILL AND SERVICE The businessmen of this area pre- sented a clock-radio to Coach Puckey in order to show in some small way their appreciation for the time and effort he gave freely in coaching our basketball team to victory. Without Mr. Puckey's excellent coaching, it is not feasible that our team could have traveled the road to victory. NEXT COMES THE FIFTY MILE HIKE Who says we aren't physically fit? Under Mr. Puckey's direction these boys take part in a vital part of our curricu- lum-physical education class. A well- rounded education provides for both mental and physical training. In Mr. Puckey's classes, boys not only learn physical fitness, but also team spirit and good sportsmanship. Because we feel that his work in teaching and coaching has been excel- lent and that he has been a credit to our school, we proudly dedicate the '63 POR- TAL to Mr. Charles Puckey.
