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

Work.. Work.. A young man fresh out of college began his career by teaching Geography, History, and Government. Now he was employed as Principal of Subschool Five. Mr. Bill Johnson. As you walked into Subschool Five you probably saw busy people, lots of activity, and new happenings. This was due to Mr. Johnson’s work during the previous summer. A Career Room with pamphlets and books on all kinds of colleges was set¬ up for everyone’s use. Plans were made for a college paper to come out once a week and a job-placement week was held sometime during the spring. Mr. Johnson was very busy with the students. Also acting as Guidance Counselor, Mr. Johnson helped relieve some of the problems concerning college. Although Mr. Johnson was very busy, he always found the time to lend an ear.
