P k TgeadMUU 7 M SfyU St M £W It When told to go see Billie at the switchboard or Art, the janitor, many students raised their eyebrows, shrugged their shoulders, and quizzically asked, Who ' s that? Astounded by such a response, teachers found it hard to believe that such important people could go by unrecognized. The classified staff, consisting of secretaries, clerks, teacher aides, cafeteria aides, and janitors, was an indispensible aspect of every teacher ' s job. I ' ve always said that the school could go on without the teachers, but without the students and the classified staff, it would shut down, said English teacher Mrs. Wiese. The staff handled a lot of the tedious work so that the students could benefit most from teachers ' time. Much of the paperwork was taken care of by these important people as not to take away from classroom time. Ms. Holt said, Mrs. Linley. the financial clerk, took care of all the lab fees and was a b ig help. I could spend my time helping students instead of hounding them for money. Among their many other duties, the secretaries maintained student records, from classes to attendance and discipline. The janitors cleaned up after students and maintained the rooms, doing their part to provide a pleasant learning environment. The cafeteria aides made sure that there was food for everyone. They are an extraordinary group of people, said history teacher Mrs. Bierbaum, expressing the feelings of the teachers about the very important classified staff.
