A major factor was the strong leadership of Principal Bob Corkrum and Vice- Principal Hank Johnson. Corkrum felt we had something dif- ferent here. t'It's more than goals and ob- jectives put togetherg it's a vision - a vi- sion that is seen by all students, staff, of- fice workers, custodians, and even parents.
