Portable Teachers Erik Swafford People Editor lust when you thought compact discs were the most exciting product of modern technology something even better comes along: portable teachers. These teachers are a major breakthrough in Arkansas education. Programmed to switch rooms almost every peri- od, these teachers depend on rolling desks as their home base. Is it conve- nient? Maybe to some people, but not to the teachers. You always need some- thing you don't have. You can't carry maps on a cart, Coach Mobley said. It's extra work because you have to be sure you have everything, but I don't mind, Mrs. Snellings said. These portable tea- chiners have to rotate from class to class with some of them teaching in a different room every period. The reason behind this? There are not enough rooms in the school for every teacher to have one, so some must 192 People share with other teachers. The portable teachers depend very much on their carts. These carts help them move books and other necessities to class, and some of the teachers even use them as desks. lt's tough, but some- one's got to do it, Coach Mobley said. Not having a desk or room that you feel is your own is very different, Mrs. Snellings said. A big problem for the portable teachers is traveling through the crowded hallways. Because of crowds you may be late or have to start class in a rush, Coach Mobley said. lt does get too crowd- ed at times, but I find the students polite, Mrs. Snellings said. The portable teachers will probably be around for a while. So, if you see some teacher running down the hallway with a cart, watch out! It's prob- ably a portable teacher.

The advertising world recognizes the wonderful potential of the teenage market. With one hand on Dad's wallet and the other on the car steering wheel, the teenager is ready for the world. Colleges and the Armed Services also do their share of advertising to catch teenage attention. They don't ask much -just a few thousand dollars andfor a few years of your life! The ads section of the yearbook gives seniors and their parents a place to do their own advertising, right alongside businesses. People buy senior ads so everyone will know that they are graduating and to show off baby pictures. Parents want to show they are proud of their kids, Bridgit Thigpen said. Buying and selling to the teenage market: money seems to burn a hole in young hands. And the young hands don't seem to mind. 194 Ads 'Si is ig ss. M N. .
