What Major Changes have Occurred During Your Years as an Administrator? I assumed the principalship of this school in 1968. At that time the school was comprised of grades 1-12. Since that time we have had a new facility built in Chattahoochee enrolling K-6. The two schools now serve the Chattahoochee area without busing students to other schools for regular programs. The biggest change in curriculum has re- sulted from the establishment of a county vocational school in Quincy. CHS has approximately sixty students attending there for one-half day and returning to the home school in the afternoon. In terms of physical plant we have seen two classrooms renovated and converted into a comfortable reading laboratory. We have seen two other classrooms con- verted into a safe firing range for our ROTC program. This is one of the few such facilities in this part of the country. Also, new dressing rooms have been built and the old ones are being renovated to better serve our athletic facilities. Above: Our principal, Mr. Parramore, takes a break from his busy schedule.

 I would like to have two or even three foreign languages, art and music because these subjects concern World Cultures.” Barbara Sunday I'd like to see more electives to choose from in this school. Students need more opportunity to actually enjoy school. They would learn more if they took pleasure in their work.” Valerie Pitts I think that the subjects that are offered at C.H.S. are pretty good. I don't think that there should be very many people who should disagree with the subjects offered. Doug Craven Above Left: Lunchtime!

Compare Your Job Now at CHS with Your Previous Position Above: Mr. Griffin receives an important phone call notifying him that much needed textbooks are on the way. Left: Mrs. Howell makes her daily check on absentees. Right: At the lunchroom door, Mrs. Jackson awaits the herd of hungry students. In comparing my present job as As- sistant Principal to my previous position as teacher-coach, I find my duties to be greatly expanded. As a teacher-coach, I was primarily responsible for the students I had in class and to a larger degree responsible for the running of the athletic department. As an administrator, my role changed from being responsible for part of a whole program, to being responsible for an en- tire program including handling of all textbooks, discipline, lunchroom duty, and making reports. However, my basic responsibility in both positions has been and continues to be to see that each student gets the best education he can attain according to his capability. Curriculuml15
