Busy Ladies Keep School Organized Mrs. Allen and Mrs. Pfeiffer, main office secretaries, plan the day’s busy schedule. In accordance with the theory that a good at- tendance record leads to a more favorable academic record, a new attendance system was implemented this year. The program was an attempt to decrease the tardiness, skipping of classes, and illegal ab- sences of several students. This system could not have run smoothly without the efficient management of Mrs. Anderson and Mrs. Thompson. Each morning, these ladies were faced with stacks of attendance cards which had to be checked. Keeping accurate records of all school absences, they saw to it that Schreiber retained its right to state aid. Schreiber’s busiest women worked at the nerve center of school activity: the main office. Each day, Mrs. Allen and Mrs. Pfeiffer performed countless tasks for students, teachers, and administrators alike. Whether dittoing executive promulgations, entering grades on student records, notifying teachers of calls from parents, or locating students to restore lost lunches, these ladies were of incalcul- able value throughout the school day. Mrs. Anderson and Mrs. Thompson, attendance office secretaries, wait for the usual influx of tardy students. 18
