Andrea Perkins Gym Attendant Junemarie Reynolds Teacher Aide Susan Romero Library Clerk Martin Ross Teaching Aide ew Science Teacher Comes To San Marcos Having experience only as a student teacher, Mr. Don Bell came to San Marcos and began teaching full time this year. Besides lnstructing science classes, he assisted Mr. Purcell in coaching track. Mr. Bell, born and brought up in Artesia, California, enjoys fulfilling a leadership role and working with people. He has for a long time had an interest in the world of nature and science and says, Teaching appears to be a job where I can best use my talents. Attending Cal State Long Beach, Mr. Bell earned Bachelor of . Arts degrees in Zoology and biology. Regarding the science department at San Marcos, he is optimistic. San Marcos has a good teaching atmosphere and the students are generally cooperative and well- 707 STAFF mannered. The faculty is a friendly and concerned group of teachers. As far as hobbies are concerned, Mr. Bell enjoys various sports, photography hiking, jogging, backpacking, traveling and relaxing at the beach. Coming from the Los Angeles area, Mr. Bell appreciates the change from smog to fresh air and really likes the Santa Barbara surroundings.

During the summer, he wishes to work as a naturalist or park ranger and backpack through the American, Canadian and New Zealand mountains. Mr. Bell would like to remain teaching at San Marcos, but his rehiring depends on future school district decisions. 1

This, perhaps, is the true desire that lies behind the aging teachers' eyes that have watched so many children become adults. What are the anxieties these people go through, in worrying about th impressions that they are making? Do they ever worry that perhaps they may be teaching the wrong things for the future? What future do these young people have? What kind of future will the young have made when they in turn become old? ls it their teachers' right to make these impressions that affect the future? There are no real answers to these questions, and in having no answers teaching becomes a hestitant, perhaps doubtful profession. ls it really worth it, knocking one's head against a solid wall of young eyes, trying to show a concept?
