76 Means Changes, History for WCSC Dale Prough, Superinten- dent of the West Central Com- munity School Corporation, re- tired Sept. 30, 1975 after 46 years in education. He spent 11 years serving the Metropoli- tan and West Central Commu- nity School Corporation, after 26 years with the total county system. During Prough's term in edu- cation in the Madison County School System, progress came rapidly. There were 13 one room schools in the county in 1949 when he began his first superintendent’s position in the Middletown School Dis- trict. These schools were quickly abolished through a well planned building program for the various attendance areas within the county. Eleven new building programs were to become realities. Some of these schools were Frankton High School, Lapel Grade and High School, Highland Jr. and Sr. High School, Madison Heights High School, and Jackson Elementary School. While all these changes were taking place, Gene Hen- iser, past principal of FHS, be- gan his educational career. Heniser is a graduate of Eaton High School in 1937; University of Kentucky in 1948; and But- ler University with a Masters degree in 1952. During his 16 years at FHS, Heniser was honored by the acceptance in 1961 of FHS into the North Central Associa- tion of Colleges and Secon- dary Schools. He also remem- bers the commencement address by Birch Bayh, who is now a candidate in the 1976 Presidential election. As of Oct. 1, 1975, Heniser is now the assistant superintendent of W.C.S.C. and is no longer a part of FHS, exclusively. Prough’s successor is Ger- ald Roudebush, past principal at Lapel High School. Roude- bush has been in education for 38 years. Twenty-eight of these years have been in service to the Madison County School System. While at Lapel, he wit- nessed the incorporation of West Central School System. For the future, Roudebush hopes to see the corporation grow and improve academi- cally and physically.
