Mr. Black, and Ms Karr, as well as being coaches, were frequently seen at the games. Mrs. Pfeifer and almost every English teacher gave extra credit for attending school plays. Miss Hersey was hardly ever seen without her blue and gold mu-mu on Fridays and spirit days. Yes, the teachers encouraged spirit. Showing their support, teachers were seen at games ranging from football to track meets. I go to the games because I feel I ' m part of the student body. I ' m just a little bit older, said Mrs. Bierbaum. Students thought that seeing teachers at the games made them seem not just as teachers, but people who actually cared. When I see teachers at the games, I feel that they give their support not only during school hours, but also for extra-curricular activities, said senior Lisa Osina. While her students read The Crucible, Mrs. Wiese gave 50 extra-credit points to anyone who saw the play at Webb High School. Biology teacher Mrs. Pfeifer gave out extra credit points for seeing school plays because she felt that fine arts get passed over too much. Though it wasn ' t always possible to get a ride, or parents ' permission, it was an easy way to get extra points, and their students agreed it was the most fun. Mrs. Pfeifer, Mrs. Bierbaum, Miss Schuller, Mr. Velasco, Mr. Sanders, Mr. Prestesater, Mr. and Mrs. King, and Miss Hersey were among the teachers who bought yearbooks every year. For those her e since the school opened, it was their 18ft. Between dressing up for Halloween, attending Cal Poly in-services, and treating secret pals, the teachers thought they were pretty spirited people. The students thought so too! As Amy Hinton put it, Since the teachers have so much spirit, they make school seem more enjoyable for everyone! SI rt2 ' Pdcuettf M '

TUat SidmuuJtiatio % P.O. t ' P MUueCy OfiU pu$ect 1 New arrivals are something everyone experiences throughout their life. Many come, many go, and many stay. As usual, many new students arrived. But the most noticeable arrivals were those of new assistant principal Mrs. Cline and the return of our well known Mr. DeHerrera. Starting was hard, but it seemed as though Mrs. Cline fit in fine. I really like it here, and I ' ve never been more happy. She worked directly with the students in terms of attendance, tardies, and truants. We ' re working together as a team with a positive approach. I think that students are finally starting to figure out how important attending school really is. When asked what her future plans for the year were, she said, I would like to see more students get involved in student activities. There are a lot of kids that are in clubs, rally, and sports, but there are also a few who aren ' t really in anything. I want to see them get more involved. Mr. DeHerrera was not so new to our school, but was still very new to some of us. He was mainly in charge of discipline, and it seemed as though his presence took its toll. We ' re more positive and more in control. I ' m just here to help the kids. They seem to be more happy, and I see more smiles. The grades are going up and the school overall seems better, he said. I love it here. The best kids in the world attend San Dimas. My major goal is to see every kid achieve the level of growth they deserve and to see everyone graduate, he said. The kids seemed to notice the change in the environment. I don ' t cut classes at all this year, said junior Linette Kanyer. It ' s getting much more strict, commented junior Murtaza Jaafri. The administration ' s outlook was positive, and working together with a strong approach towards school made it easier for everyone.
