A D M I N I STTIIR AIT Von I MR. DODGE MR. COOKE MR. STULT. MISS HARROWER THE ADMINISTRATION ,ii-T., THE fifty-third year of Hornell High School's existence causes us to stop to look back at the achievements of the administrations. Actually, Hornell High existed in 1852. In 1873 it was made Hornell Free Academy under the laws of New York State. The memory of Hold grads recalls graduation exercises in the Park 'and Baptist Churches, and later the Shattuck Theatre. In 1902 there were eleven teachers and fifty-two graduates. Today, there is a staff of approximately fifty teachers and school popula- tion of about fifteen hundred. In 1924 we were given the new school in whose halls we have spent so many happy hours. The faculties came to their important educational jobs better prepared. We became a metropolitan school rather than a small town one. For the achieving of these things we must pay credit to our illustrious forebearers of the last fifty years. The more tangible gratitude we must place before Mr. Dodge, our superintendent, Mr. Cooke, our principal. Mr. Stull, of the junior High School. who is a standard bearer in this new phase of education, and Miss Harrower, about whom it has been written. She is a woman, who seeks not honor for herself. but whose good is helping others. We have our share of educational honors, of scholarships and of activities, voca- tional and social. 'l'o the Board of Education, Messers. Dodge and Cooke, to Miss Harrower. to our teachers and our parents, may we utter a simple Thank You ?
