Students may use the library before school, as well as other times. Mrs. Colburn checks audio-visual aids for the day. Teachers check mailboxes on way to classes. Students ask office staff members a few thousand questions.

Before School: School buses begin to arrive at Junior High shortly after eight o’clock in the morning, and if all goes well most students are in or around the building by 8:30. First bell is at 8:40. The hallsare very crowded when 1600 students, more or less, invade the place. (We ' re over- crowded by about 400.) This has been especially true this year. One of the big problems in getting the school day started is literally a matter of getting into the building and through the halls to the appointed place and class. But once we make it, we find our lockers and put in and take out the materials necessary to make the rounds through another school day. Many lockers are shared by two or more people, since there are not nearly enough to go around. Space is a problem all over. In the center picture below Mr. Bachman selects materials he needs from his personal army footlocker which he brought from home and uses to keep test papers, books, records, and all other teacher supplies. He is one of our floating teachers, and this year not even a storage cabinet was available.
