I.B.M. Assists Administration and Faculty in Keeping Records Donna Hess and Sandy Parker help Mrs. Gessert in IBM Room. IBM serves the school by making out report cards, schedules, rolls, attendance lists, student permanent records, honor roll, and other like material. IBM has taken on the work formerly done by teach¬ ers, thus giving them more free time. The three types of machines, hole punch¬ ing, sorting, and printing, are rented by the school, and have become a record keeping necessity. MRS. ROBERTA GESSERT Menomonee Falls, Wis. A.D.P.

Edison’s Assistant Principals Miss Charlotte Zeigler, Assistant Principal for Instruction, is serving her second year in that posi¬ tion, transferring from the Guidance Department. She was well prepared for her work with an A. B. from William and Mary College and a Master degree from the University of Virginia. Miss Zeigler supervises the instructors, regulates the school ma¬ terials, and administers the planning of the school curriculum. Our Assistant Principal of Instruction feels that in order for the school to meet the needs of the student body, the curriculum must be con¬ stantly revised and improved. As a result, Miss Zeigler is constantly working towards amending the school’s instruction. MISS CHARLOTTE ZEIGLER Assistant Principal for Instruction
