Support Can Be Beautiful The support staff has the big job at Prairie High School of keeping the building running smoothly. All the paraprofessionals, secretaries, cooks, and custodians help this school to be more efficient. Some changes have been made in the High School office. Mrs. Connie Goldsberry is the new face on the block. She is in charge of all attendance and is Mr. Jennings’ secretary. Mrs. Sharon Bruns is the principal’s secretary. Her days are filled with all the tasks necessary to keep the office in business. Room 11 also has a new face. Phil Britcher monitors that room. A lot of people know Phil from the Jr. High where she taught P.E. “It’s not the same as teaching. A lot of paper work is involved but the contact with the kids assigned for various reasons make it an enjoyable job.” Joceil Southward is the paraprofessional in the library. She is always around to help you find the material or book you need if you can’t find it yourself. Eileen Grinder is another important person. She is the secretary for the counselors. She helps maintain the organization in the counselors’ office. Mary Hynek is also new to our building. She is the nurse for the high school and the other five buildings on campus. There used to be two nurses in the district but now Mary takes care of all the buildings. Vicki Hawkins continues to take care of all school store business. The custodians and the cooks have a big job to do. The custodians spend many hours trying to keep this building picked-up and cleaned. Every time you turn around, you’ll see a custodian picking up after the students who use this building. The cooks have to cook for over 600 people, and while some lunches are better than others, they are constantly faced with the question of what they can make that is new and what will they eat?
