FOLLIES me s W.. inzz E ra d i t i o n s a re i m D 0 r t a nt at Mm Westwood, and one tradition stu- dents and faculty alike seem to ' enjoy is the annual Faculty Follies. Held each year on the last day before Christmas vacation, the event gives students a chance to see teachers a little differently than they usually do. Robert Larson has been in every Faculty Folly they've had in the 17 years he's been here. Why do I do it? I ask myself, WHY? But he's quick to add that it's fun to do. So many of our teachers have a lot of ham in them - so we just do it. Each year Mr. Larson and Mary Lou Allred coordi- nate the event from the instructional media center. We're centrally located for everyone, so it makes it easy for us to coordinate it, said Mrs. Allred. But mainly we do it because it's so much fun! Mary Ellen Gormican, Dolores Merrell, Claudia Nielson and Mary Ann Dillon, The Cluckettesf' dance to ln the Mood at the Faculty Follies. lt's good for students to see that teachers have a sense of humor and can have fun too, said Mrs. Merrell. M Thomas gets a pinch on the cheek from Security Guard Karen Patterson during the Follies. Coach Thomas has taken part in the annual event for the past 26 years. lt's all about having lots of fun and making a fool of yourself, he said. Faculty Fairies E9

ORK MEANS D MO EY tudents are not only busy maintaining their grade Ann ,'n. point average, but many also have part-time jobs after school that take up a lot of their time. Rudy Ramirez says his job as a janitor at Whittier Elementary School is all right for the school year. Rudy is in charge of va' cuuming, sweeping the floors and keeping the classrooms clean. He said he works around 19 hours a week and makes 34.15 an hour. He spends his money on clothes, going out, and his basic needs. l am mainly working for the credit and money, he said. l like my job because it's easy and it doesn't interfere with my social activities. Junior Curt Nielson works in Golfland's arcade. He has worked there six months and is paid 33.50 an hour. Curt said, I hope someday l will become supervisor of the ar- cade in Golflandf' He said he spends his earnings on his car and dates. Junior Lori Weaver doesn't have the aver- age teenage job. Lori is a photographer for a local band called NLIVI. lt's not for the mon- ey, more for the fun, she said. The lead singer is my seminary teacher, Scott Roman. He teaches Christian seminary. Everyone knows the guy who drives the fluorescent orange VW van. Senior Shawna Ness works at the Athletic Shoe Outlet. She said she has been working there more than a year and earns 53.50 an hour. When asked what she likes least about the job, she said, Persuading customers to buy shoes. Junior Kristi Graves works at Little Cea- sar's Pizza. She works around 20 hours a week and earns 33.70 an hour. The people are fun, Kristi said, butthe cleaning is not. l'm working there to support my car. Junior Danielle 0pry's job isn't an after- school job, but before school - at 2:30 in the morning! She delivers the newspaper, a job which usually takes about three hours. She earns between S150 and S250 dollars a week and spends some of the money on her car. She also helps her Mom with expenses, along with putting a lot of the money into her savings account for college. Chris Lowe, senior, works at Westwood Theater and loves it! lt's a great job, he said. l like the fact that l get to meet people and also get free movies with popcorn! Be- sides having fun at work, Chris said he spends his well earned money on records, such as UZ, bicycle races, and on his girlfriend, Kelly. While Chris is having fun working at the movies, Sophomore Tyler Holmes is busy working at McDonald's. He works about 20 hours a week and earns minimum wage. lt's easy to see that lots of Westwood students have different types of jobs to either support social activities or their cars. Many of them not only work for the money, but also for the credit. Students may get credit for their work by going through the Career Center and enrolling in the Career Explorations Pro- gram. A student may earn up to two credits in the program. A good deal for students it they are short on credit - or money! -Jennifer Laurie, Stacy Egan, Stephanie Elsberger Working 'I
