Secretaries Classify Mountain of Paperwork I'm applying to Penn State. Would you please send them a transcript of my credits?” asks a senior. Mrs. King, could I have change for the telephone? ' Joyce, can I use the Xerox machine to copy an English poem?” asks a teacher. With many requests interrupting them, the office secretaries find it difficult to type the letters, keep the attendance cards, handle the telephone calls, search for transcripts and the many other duties required of them. Yet they always manage answer our questions cheerfully and still get their work done. Mrs. King says she enjoys her work because, It's the variety, knowing that no two days are alike. Without the secretaries to keep the office running smoothly, our school would be tangled in a web of utter confusion.

 “ We give advice, but we cannot give the wisdom to profit by it.” La Rochefoucauld Mr. Bennett, you’ve got to do something! I don’t have lunch on my schedule!” It’s September again and the guidance counselors are up to their ears in requests. During the first two months of school most of Mr. Bennett’s, Miss Moore’s and Mr. Eakin’s time is taken up with the demanding job of schedule changes. Along with November, December and the holidays come students needing college applications. At this time the guidance counselors also administer college entrance exams to the juniors and seniors. The library in the guidance office testifies to another of the counselors duties-.that of helping students pick a college and sending transcripts to various colleges. Spring brings students flocking to the office for help in planning their next year’s schedule. But at any time the counselors scheduled activities maybe interrupted by students seeking advice on their problems. LEFT: Mr. Ea-kin consults with a student on his test scores.

Do we HAVE to read JULIUS CAESAR? Every year English teachers hear the same remarks from students as the teachers struggle to encourage reading. But this year at least has seen many students carrying contemporary paperbacks along with their worn copies of the classics. FAHRENHEIT 451, 1984, TO KILL A MOCKINGBIRD, and LORD OF THE FLIES accompany Thoreau, Chaucer, and Shakespeare. Mrs. Campbell, sophomore English teacher, voices the feelings of many when she says, Languageand literature study present never-ending adventure to both teacher and students.
