Mr. Miller addresses graduates and crowd of ten thousand gathered in the Stadium for Commencent. End of year brings changes as seniors and Superintendent complete their work and leave In his thirty-five years of teaching, twenty two of them in Belleville. Mr. Miller has said farewell to many graduating classes. A superintendent retires, but the school goes on. Mr Miller congratulates his successor. Dr. John Robert Dosier. who has served as his Assistant Superintendent for the past eighteen years. Eighteen years ago when Mr. Kenneth Lane Miller was approached with the prospect of becoming superintendent of Belleville Town¬ ship High School, District 201, he was honored, but not terribly anxious to assume the role. I le had enjoyed the personal contacts he had had with people both as a teacher and a principal and was not sure he wanted to move into such a purely administrative position. After dis¬ cussing the matter with his family, Mr. Miller decided to accept the promotion, a decision that he has not regretted. The smiling face and low-key manner of this administrator has led our district admirably dur¬ ing the past eighteen years. With the help of his supportive colleagues, he has brought the district through many trying situations. One of the most trying times for him in recent years was having to uphold the reduction in faculty and personnel because of decreased enroll¬ ment and financial need. Despite all of the pressures that come from holding the top job iti the district, he has been able to keep his sanity and sense of perspec¬ tive, even through the recovery pericxl from a heart attack suffered during a Board of Educa¬ tion meeting in August of 1981. Mr. Miller has missed the frequent contacts with students he had as principal of West from 1963-1967. Even though Mr. Miller has missed the daily contact with students he had as a teacher and principal, he has enjoyed the various aspects of his demanding position. Now that he has reached the retirement he deserves after years of dedicated service, he will have more time to enjoy high school sports and entertainment and more time to spend with the youth he respects. A gtxxl teacher was all he ever wanted to be. In retirement Mr. Miller will continue to be a good teacher in the community. End of the Year 25
