Faculty — 19 Social Studies teacher Mr. C.A. Neal was serenaded at his Shamokin Dam home by approximately ICO high school stu- dents on December 20. The Shikellamy High School Choir and Chorus, along with a brass ensemble and several other students, traveled to Mr. Neal's house by bus during the sixth and seventh periods. There the students, led by Mr. James Reaser, Choral Director-, and science teacher, Miss Barbara Albright; sang a medley of well-known Christmas carols. Miss Albright, who originated the idea, said, I just thought it would be a neat thing to do because he’s a friend and he’s done a lot for everybody in school.” Add- ed Mr. Reaser, ”1 guess we did this be- cause we love Mr. Neal. We hoped to brighten the day for him.” Concluded Miss Albright, We gave him a gift from people who love him.” David Bish B.S., (1978) Industrial Arts Dennis L. Blue B.S., (1973) Science Donald N.

Bell B.S., (1971) Communication Arts Data processing is the way of the future Mrs. Felix feels that every student should take at least one data processing class so they at least understand how computers are run because more and more in the world today computers are being used. In the Data Processing room there is one main frame computer which is very large and next year they are getting an extention to this frame. They have 13 mi- cro computers around the district, four of them being at the High School. Data Processing offers three one-se- mester courses and next year the fourth one will be added. These courses are: Intro I. Business Computer Programming and Advanced Programming. To be added next year is Intro II. Approximately twenty students are in each class. Mrs. Lewis feels that the com- puter classes have helped to enroll more students in the business department. Administrators do relax — sometimes. (L to R) Principal Dr. Steven Messner. Assistant Principals Mr. Richard Smith and Mr. Fred Guinn. 18 — Faculty

Data Processing updates equipment The Data Processing Department is in the midst of updating the equipment ac- cording to Mrs. Lewis, to provide more relevant training. The new equipment will be similar to the machines that are used by area businesses. A new course will be added to the cur- riculum in the form of advanced data en- try. Mrs. Lewis added, Because of the computer impact on the business world, students should have more exposure to what’s being used by businesses.
