ASSISTA Another year has passed at Highlands under the ex- pert guidance of our vice-principal, Mrs. Mary Burt. Mrs. Burt has eapably a sisted Mr. Miller in the atl- ministration of our school. She, too, has worked to give ur' every educational opportunity possible. Une of her very important duiies is the planning and organization of the school testing program. The results of these tests enable our school to compare its achieve- ments with schools throughout the country. ller most important and significant help to us this year has been her wise guidance and counseling about our future. Vile have received invaluable aid in pre- paring for college and application procedures, and in preparing for future work. Mrs, Burt has also graciously and helpfully eounselled with us in any other of our problems. This helpful counseling, this cheerful aid, this quiet guidance we have received from Mrs. liurt has endeared her to each of us. PRINCIP Mr. llarold Miller has well displayed his qualifica- tions for school administration in this, his first year at llighlands lligh School. lle has shown his ability in school organization and has taken an active, personal interest in each of us. Mr. Miller attended Dry Ridge lligh School, Dry Ridge, Kentucky. lle graduated from Vllestern Kentucky State College and later received his Master's Degree at the l'niversity of Kentucky where he is still taking graduate work. lle was Viee Principal in charge of Senior lligh of llolm s lligh School before coming to llighlantls. Much of the success of this school year is a result of the untiring efforts of llarold Miller to provide ll- with the best of school programs. lle has striven in many ways to enable us to better benefit from our school life. Although his many responsibilities kept him very busy, he was always more than willing to assist in the planning and production of all our ideas and projects. All this has been accomplished while guiding the largest llighlands ever. PRINCIPAL
