Nobody, But Nobody, Does It Better They keep right on teaching, even while students doodle on their desks instead of taking notes. Many con¬ stantly fight their way through the teenage mob in the lunchroom for a bite to eat. Some of the more private ones prefer seclusion in their lounge. Of course, we all know who they are. They ' re SHS teachers. Along with stu¬ dents, they make up the heart of our school. SHS teachers take much pride in their work and their school, and many give extra hours after school. They are always around to lend an ear, give ad¬ vice for personal problems, or give ex¬ tra academic help. These moments of counseling create a special relation¬ ship between student and teacher, and there are many such bonds at SHS, especially because it is such a small school. Besides teaching and counseling personally or academically, they also help out as sponsors of many clubs and organizations. Especially de¬ manding are the junior and senior sponsorships. The junor class spon¬ sors spend much time seeing that the production of the Junior-Senior Prom is on schedule, while the senior spon¬ sors work all year in preparation for Senior Day, the Baccalaureate, and Commencement exercises. All year coaches of various sports and the band director in the fall spend hours after school preparing their students for the big games . Work on publi¬ cations such as the yearbook and the newspaper requires much time of the sponsor in order to make sure Suffolk High has a quality product. All the work that teachers do, both in the classroom and after school, has one main purpose: To help students succeed now and in the future. When they do, their teachers feel a sense of pride and accomplishment unequaled in most professions. Mrs. Gail V.
