He Ceres per ere Beers Four years ago, Dr. Manning had a choice of r working in twenty-two high schools in the county, and chose Lake Braddock because he wanted to do new and exciting things as a Subschool principal; and he did. Aside from being principal of Subschool Four, Dr. Manning worked with teacher improvement, where he assisted teachers in their instructions and performance. He believed one of the main problems in Subschool Four was created when his students, still in their adolescent years, were expected to be adults. He felt the students, teachers, parents, and administrators were the backbone of Lake Braddock and, because of their mutual concerns, made Lake Braddock strong. For the future, Dr. Manning was interested in a position with more responsibilities. He felt he could handle it and would like to fulfill his goals. Dr. Manning enjoyed working at Lake Braddock, where he earned the mutual respect of the students and where his relationships with the students and teachers were valued.

Director’s stick in hand, Mr. Claiborne T. Richardson sat atop his high, black chair and instructed such instrumental groups as Symphonic, Concert and Stage Bands during the course of a school day. After school, he, along with Mr. Larry Tichenor, also put in long, hard hours with the Marching and Pep Band Units, getting them in shape for performances at t he school’s athletic events as well as competition. Mr. Richardson came to Lake Braddock the opening year, looking for the opportunity of developing an excellent instrumental program. “As in all new schools, there’s a period of building. Lake Braddock is no exception. We started with seventh, eighth, ninth and tenth graders. It has built up in participants since then, and is developing many outstanding groups early.” He rated our Music Department highly, though his major complaint, because of the school’s size, was scheduling, for “there seem to be too many options for the same students, therefore creating conflicts.” His main goal for the Music Department was “to see the Music Department develop to the height of its present potential to afford excellence in music for all of its students.” His interests “rest a great deal in music education and performance, and working with young people in developing their best potential — and in rare moments, I’m known to enjoy good sports like baseball, and football.” 172 Faculty
