PAG* is-PIAINREALER-FRIDAY. AUGUST " W Marian Central Starts New Year DEATHS •tartva Aug. SO gt school by Kurt Bega&a n*« . Central Catholic high \ It is Sitter Ann Rene Second year as principal . The pains are over. It wasn't s matter of inexperience. She worked as an administrator in six different parochial high schools, in­ cluding St. Edward in Elgin and Boylan Catholic in Rockford. Rather it was s mutter of getting her feet wet at Marian. Sister Shinkey started in July, 1981, in the wake of s major shakeup that ended in the removal of Principal Tom Parsley and Dean of Students Lou Hartlieb. She acknowledges it wasn't easy stepping in amid such controversy, but believes things have quieted. The question she has is, "How does a person who wssn't here know when things are back on track?" The school spent s lot of money making repairs on the building. The Rev. Thomas E. Brantman Joined the staff this year as an assistant prin­ cipal and director of religious studies and the new Spiritual Activities coundl. Sster Shinkey hopes to maintain religion as the focal point at Marian. An optional Mass is held every day. School prayer is required. A retreat or a day of recoflectkm tfumrenHiig God also is mandated - Religion and English ctssses are requited all four years. One semester each of science, American history, consumer education and U.S. government is required, along with two of math. Teachers are required to arrive a half hour before school and remain an hour after classes so they are readily available to students. A final bed at the end of die day signals when the faculty and students serving deten­ tions may leave. A great deal of emphasis is placed on discipline. The campus is closed: Unexcused tardiness results in a detention. Smoking on campus earns violators a detention and a suspension on the second offense. Alcohol and drug abuse are punishable by im­ mediate suspension and possible expulsion. "I'm not s screamer, but I'm Pollyanna either," Sister Shinkey iiioie \ fai no t a-^ sei dnkev be We Invite You To Hear The Gospol of Christ No BOOK but the HUE: No CREED but th« CHRIST: No WAY but Christ's WAY: No CHURCH but NIs CHURCH! 11 any speak, let him speak as the wacles of God" II P«t 4 111 SERVICES: I i^AM Sunday Bible Study lor Ail Age Groups II AM Sunday Worship 6 PM Sunday Fvening Wor«hm 7 30 PM Wednesday Evening Worship Welcome To All Services Of Qlfp (ttliurrlj of (Eijrtflt IAYMOND T.

Am I being unreasonable? Sue Dear Sue: It hink you are being fool­ ish, if you have no other com­ mitment of your time except to do whatever you choose to do. DearColissa; Are all adults greedy and selfish? My mother and fath­ er are partners in a business with my uncle (my father's brother) and his wife. The business was left to them by my grandfather. All they do is argue about who is getting the most out of the business and about who will make the decisions about how the busi­ ness is to be managed. They argue during working hours and after working hours. Are they typical? BUI Dear HIM: They are only typical of what sometimes happens when people get something for nothing, with no strings attached--and no ground <1 rules.

Boys muetweara tie and sweaters --a blue V-neck aa an undergraduate, cream for juniors and seniors. Giria are required to wear the official skirt or slacks and a sweater or blazer, with the same color stipulations. Deapite the strictness, Sister Shinkey said, "We believe a high school education is a liberal education." She wants to give students the op­ portunity to explore various career options. This is the ma)or reason behind required classes. Each student la required to take a minimum of six classes per year and up to seven. "For every hour of school, there should be a couple hours of homework," she said. The 460 students and 28 professional staffers are starting earlier this year as a coat-cutting measure and to reinforce the "established pattern" of family vacationa during the holiday ison. An additional two weeks will added onto Christmas break, with classes resuming Jan. 3. Parental involvement ia en­ couraged. Classes are dismissed at 2:30 p.m. so students may participate in extracurricular activities and still spend ample time with their families. Sister Shinkey commented the state of Marian encourages a more per­ sonal relationship between teachers and students. In addition, the school's geographical draw brings youths from averse backgrounds together. According to Assistant Principal Thomas E. Landers, that makes for a healthy blend of ideas. But it also leads to transportation nightmares. District 200 buses Marian students living in Woodstock, but those in other cities must rely on car pools, buses or traina. "We can't afford a fleet of buses," Sister Shinkey said. An In-house transportation system and expansion of the school are her goals. The school is subsidized by the 16 catholic parishes in the county. The pastor add one lav representative from each church compoae the Council of Adminiatration, which guides the principal and three assistant principals in running Marian. Students of participating pariahes pay $1,060 in tuition a year. Those from other parishes or non-catholics pay $1,400. If a family has more than one child attending, there is a 26- percent reduction in tuition for each additional student. A fourth student attends free. In addition, students must pay a yearly, non-refundable registration fee of $65 to cover administrative coats. A $20 fee for athletes and a $20 graduation fee for seniors are other expenses. M Sister Shinkey is proud of the Hurricanes and her accomplishments gt "We work hard but not begrudgingly," she said. A plaque in her office reflects her philosophy: "What you are is God's gift to you -- what you make of yourself is your gift to God.
