Teachers Show Real Support Everyone knows the teachers at Prairie are kept really busy teaching classes every day. They also sponsor and coach a wide variety of clubs, groups and teams . In addition, quite a few hours are put in preparing and planning for these classes and activities. What people don't stop to think about is the many other ways the faculty shows its support of the school and its students. This begins in the summer with teachers attending workshops and classes to sharpen their skills. They also chaperone students on various trips. August brings the sophomore lock-in and a night of very little sleep for their advisors. Home visitations are also part of these teachers' extra duties.

Evenings bring more obligations. Various sponsors organize their students to run concessions at sports events and all the teachers enjoy supporting the athletic and fine arts programs by attending these activities. Special events bring the opportuni ty for teachers to use thei r "unique" talents. They can be found riding a donkey, dribbling a basketball, roasting a pig, or speaking about their present or past careers. Many work on planning mini courses, assemblies, graduat ion and other activities. Teachers find satisfaction in their difficult, but rewarding jobs. This was especially evident on Teacher Appreciation Day when several individuals were honored for over fifteen years of service to Prairie High. They were: Darrel Bogner, Gloria Canney, Russ Werning, Chuck Worsfold, and John Osland. Faculty 101
