S. a Top School All tenth-graders know Mr. Robert Simon, teacher of Driver Education at Waukesha High School. Learning rules of the road, taking depth perception tests, and checking night vision, are all part of the course that helps make better drivers of those about to acquire licenses. Helen Rode, Olive Busiaeger, and Delourise Tra- kel compose the library staff. Besides helping supply students with recreational reading, they have the all-important task of providing reference materials. Around noon, we become especially aware of one part of the school - - - the cafeteria. The aromas that MR. ROBERT SIMON AND HIS CLASSES check to see whether anyone has poor night vision, a known cause of accidents. drift through the halls are good indicators of the work of Mary Ellen Kane, Head Dietician, and her staff. Heinz Rose is the school's psychometrist. He is in charge of giving all standardized tests and inter- preting them for future teacher and student use. Getting school news to the community is surely the iob of all students and teachers. However, much aid is given by Mrs, Ruth Witte, Director of Public Rela- tions, to whom many public news agencies turn for information.
