Assistant Principals This year there is a new face among Strong Vincent's administration. His name is Mr. Joseph Oadaniec. In 1962. he was a math teacher at Strong Vincent. He left in 1973 to be principal at Wayne Middle School. From there he was administrative assistant to the superintendent. Mr. Oadaniec is a graduate of Prep High School. He has a vast knowledge of education with a major in mathematics. When asked if he preferred teaching or being a principal, he said. “Every job offers its own challenges. I like these challenges. I have been satisfied with all my jobs so I can’t really pick a favorite. He is a welcome addition to Strong Vincent High School. Mrs. Mary Alice Schultz has served as a devoted, hardworking member of the Strong Vincent administration for eight years. During this time she has promoted many activities and programs, as well as performing her duties as an assistant principal. Mrs. Schultz returned this year from a well deserved sabbatical, and we on the SPOKESMAN staff would like to welcome her back. TT Ai 7

Principal Mr. Joseph Gervase has been principal at Strong Vincent for the past four years. Even before then, he was well-known to everyone. He was a teacher here for seventeen years and an assistant principal for nine years. His great school spirit is reflected through the student body. Since his appearance as principal in 1975, he has been trying to develop the quality of our school to include a greater degree of excellence. It is working. To those who know him, he is a nice man with a good knowledge of what’s going on in this school. He works very hard to keep the students and faculty together. It is a very hard task, but he has been doing it for the past four years and will probably do it for more years to come. Many thanks to Mr. Gervase for his allegiance to Strong Vincent.
