'Beginners' Hardly That he Social Studies Department has had several teachers who have been here since the beginning. Phoebe Busch said, I value the personal friendship and professional inspiration extended by my good teaching colleagues during the many years we have shared office I-105. John Engle had four experiences that he remembers. First was, the night course in Colorado history which included work with high school and elementary students. Second, is the Washington D.C. Close-Up program. Third, was the opportunity I had on sabbatical teaching elementary Indian students on the Ute Reservation, and fourth was my par- ticipation on an archaeological dig in Southwest Colorado. Mr. Engle believed eliminating the Off-Campus requirement was a mistake. Arlene Clifford, the Social Studies Department clerk, summed it up for all when she said, Meeting all of the wonderful young people is the best thing about my job at Smoky Hill. DOING HIS DAILY ROUTINE, John Engle works diligently to get the job done.

'MATH is your best investment, dictates Jim Clark, math instructor. lELAXlNG, Ken Carmann kicks back before his ext class. Teaching takes a lot out of a person. X . Experiences to Fall Back On hree long-time members of Smoky Hill are in the Math Department. One of them, Jim Clark, spoke of his best experience: lt's hard to identify a best experience. From this perspective, I would have to say that my 'best experiences' were the daily classroom contacts with the many hard working, thinking, mature students that l've had the privilege of teaching. Mr. Clark also said that the school has grown up and established itself as an academic and athletic pacesetter. Ken Carmann another member in good standing said of his experiences, Having a part in the solution to the puzzle of bringing Smoky Hill from an idea to what it is today has been the best experience. Mr. Carmann also commented that the school, once unique, is now becoming more and more like any other school. The coordinator of the department, Bob Hiester, was also one of the few who have been around since Smoky Hill first opened. He commented, The first full commencement was very good. It was the culmination of four years of hard work. Also, the new addition is a good change because it offers better facilities. Also being a coach, Mr. Hiester remembered well the 1980 and the 1983 football seasons as being the best years for Smoky Hill's football program. E my xx ix xxx NQX x YOU CAN DO IT! encourages Bob Hiester. The key to teaching is showing enthusiasm that will reflect on the student's will to learn. l ..., , L I , - Dick MCCELLAND h rr T ss- , - t tq.. .1 3 MIKE MEAGHER - S -X , ' j GAIL MILLER 1 w t . , I NANCY v.
