Fourteen students staffed Cindi Maynard the store and sold products that ranged from Bic pens to sweatshirts. We try to offer students everything they need, said Cindi Maynard, retail teacher. If a teacher reguires a certain type of notebook, we try to make our prices the cheapest any- where; everything we have is less expensive than it would be in any other store. The store was begun in 1984 as a convenience for students. Profits go to the PTSA scholarships, ROP scholarships and the rest is generated back to the stu- II o N and more dents through ASB, eluded Maynard. «f» Student Store Staff.

It ' s hard to be a teenager ' — Gene Mitchell Staff guides many groups Being a teacher doesn ' t mean just teaching; it also includes coaching, advis- ing, supervising, encourag- ing, and — occasionally — watching. Many teachers not only spent an entire working day teaching but also dedicated extra hours to extracurricu- English teacher Lori Pearson ap- pears in Oriental garb as pari ol the Halloween celebration.

Their attitudes make my job re- warding, she revealed. The students are motivated and eager to make the Talon a great paper. The second-year Drafting Club advisor liked the ca- maraderie of small clubs. Drafting classes are gener- ally full, which is great, but the Drafting Club is fairly small — which is even bet- i ter! The College Bowl is a fo- rum for intelligent, percep- tive students to practice for try-outs to become a mem- ber of the team. A member- ship on the College Bowl team, which competes an- nually at a UCR competi- tion, could mean scholar- ship dollars. For five years, Pat Monaco, a science teacher, has advised the College Bowl club. I like to learn interesting facts, he said. But learning them with my students is fun. I have a great group of spirit leaders this year! pro- claimed third year Pep Squad advisor Carol Whi- taker. Her motivation? It ' s a pleasure to work with them! Which was not, assured other teachers who doubled as coaches and advisors, an unusual reason for helping students. » Speech teacher Marie Mains also coached the award-winning speech team. Gary Lesh, FFA advisor and teacher par excellence — former District teacher ol the year — ex- plains an assignment to an agricul- ture class.

166 C O U N T o N ' ' PLUS Involve- ment If our biggest concern is mail- boxes, then I ' d say we ' re doing pretty well . . . ' — Al Martinez Social Studies o o o o ° O O O O O o O o C i O c O o c oooooooo O O O O o o o o o o o f Staff activists unite . . . Lobbying for lounge privacy In the future, this may well be remembered as the year the mailboxes moved. Teachers have been complaining for several years, said Alice Drury, Staff Club president. I ' ve received several notes of thanks since the move. Teachers have told me that it ' s the best thing that ' s hap- pened to them in several years, commented Al Mar- Dan Weatherford discusses agenda items with students Irom the Political Science Club. tinez, Faculty Advisory Committee Chairman. The result of the mailbox move? No more students in our staff lounge, answered Martinez. Our privacy has been restored, added Drury. But, whodunit? As the Staff Club, we like to do things, Drury ex- plained. For years I ' ve heard complaints from teachers about students in the staff lounge. It can be hard, I admit. You can be sitting and having a person- al conversation with another teacher; when you look over your shoulder a student is behind you, listening. Or, perhaps you ' re having a conversation about a par- ticular student — and he ' s behind you, listening. Apparently, the Staff Club and its affiliate, The Faculty Advisory Commit- tee, found the intruding stu- dents too much to handle. It was an idea so simple no one had thought of it. Within two days the mailboxes were moved . . . We thought we ' d tackle it, remembered Drury. We went to Mr. Huckaby and told him our complaints. ' Great, ' he said. ' But I sim- ply don ' t have the office staff to go in there and constantly stuff mailboxes. ' According to Drury, when she and other mem- bers of FAC and the Staff Club suggested moving the mailboxes, everyone seemed surprised. It was an idea so simple no one had thought of it. Within two days the mail- boxes were moved. And since the big occas- sion, Drury has received thank you notes in her box and Martinez has collected an entire file folder of testi- monies of gratitude. The boxes are much easier to get to. The horrible crowding in the lounge in the mornings has been alle- viated, said Allan Stringer, math teacher. I can finally send my yearbook students to stuff boxes! I don ' t have to spend hours doing it myself. I can also send my students to get their yearbook question- naires out of my box. All in all, it works out better, testi- fied Laura Flocker, English teacher and yearbook advi- sor. It just goes to show you, concluded Drury. By George! Sometimes all you have to do is ask. We asked. +
