Faculty Play
The Black and Gold 1977
'A funny thing happened to me on the way...'
An exhibition of originality and an abundance of hidden talent combined for the performance of the hilarious 1976 faculty play, "A Funny Thing Happened to Me on the Way..."
Written and directed by Mr. James Nakamoto, the plot centered on King Psoriasis (Mr. Charles Higa), his court of fools (a cast of 50 teachers) and a gloomy little prince who refused to smile (Mr. Sadao Odo).

McKinley Teachers Association
The Black and Gold 1977
MTA socials foster fellowship, fun
Responsible for socials and teacher hospitality, the McKinley Teacher Association had 90 per cent membership this year.
The first social gathering was a kick-off dinner at Yong Sing Restaurant. Some 80 people dined on a seven-course dinner followed by contests and drawings.
November's faculty fun nite found teachers and their families engaged in an informal pot luck dinner followed by a turkey dart board, coconut turkey plucking, and other games which added for prizes.
Besides events honoring the retiring principal, the association sponsored the traditional May Luau.

Reaccreditation
The Black and Gold 1977
To provide McKinley's students with an insurance of acceptance into better colleges, a major concern of the administration and faculty this year was reaccreditation and rating from representatives of the Western Association of Schools and Colleges in March.
The WASC had the responsibility of rating an intensive nine months study of the school's programs made by administration and faculty on a scale of 1 to 5. This investigation covered the competency of the faculty, course goals, and objectives. During the last accreditation, McKinley received the maximum rating of five years.
Overall chairman for McKinley's Accreditation Committee was Vice Principal Mr. L.F. Leu.

Administration / Faculty
The Black and Gold 1977
In December, Mr. Young Yee Ko retired from his position as principal of McKinley High School. Under his two and a half year principalship, major changes in school policies such as the bell schedule, sports program, and the tightening up of school security were made.
As in most administrative decisions, the welfare and good of the school, faculty and students alike, were utmost.
The MTA honored him at its December Christmas luncheon, and a special dinner in January. The Student Council presented the school with his portrait to be hung in McKinley's Hall of Fame.

PEOPLE
The Black and Gold 1977
If one were to inspect a cross section of McKinley's population, the resulting diversification would not be limited to racial differences. Individuality emerged -- without relinquishing creativity and still complying with the masses.
Each person -- student, faculty and administrator alike -- plays a multitude of roles, be it adviser, confidant or just friend.
For 1976-77 the focus seemed to see his own level, motivated only by his needs and desires.
