STAFF Without the cooks, custodians, office secretaries, librarians, and school counselors, we would not have a smooth running school. The cooks spend many hours making and preparing meals for approximately 270 people. Shoveling walks, opening up the school, cleaning the halls, and solving the problems students may have are just a few of the duties of our custodians. Being a secretary means real work, and there’s plenty of that. The librarians also help students by keeping the library resources neat. A new addition to the staff is the new drug-alcohol counselor. The staff members deserve a thanks for their effort. Mrs. Feyerherm Mrs. Petersen Mrs. Westerman 29

ADMINISTRATION The administration is the nucleus of the school. Mr. Echtenkamp, the superintendent, is responsible for the school budget and many state reports. Mr. Wilks, the principal, is in charge of discipline, curriculum and staff evaluation. Mr. Johnson, the guidance counselor, helps students with personal counseling, career planning and scheduling. Mr. Carmody, the activities director, attends all school activities and is responsible for the school calendar, gate receipts, and game officials. Thank you for the effort. 0 OWMM ft ftWMTtf MftWftWftWftWftWfrMW (IMMM ftTWMTftWfti Dick Johnson 28

FACULTY The faculty at West Point High School has a wide variety of tasks they perform. Their jobs start on an average day ranging from 7:40 a.m. and continue until 3:50 p.m. They have to take a lot of their work home, because they never get it done in school. Their jobs range from grading papers to making out schedules. During school hours they only have one hour for planning time. Along with their daily routine they take tickets at ballgames, monitor the halls, and any other odd job that needs to be done. However, teachers have the privileges of buying shakes separately, drinking coffee in class, and getting into school activities free. 30
