I'ri4l,a:1-on On the second Tuesday in .Iuly of every year. a meeting of the voters of Le Roy is held at which the nominees to till the open positions on the Board of liducation are chosen. On the following after- noon, the people of Le Roy vote for those who they believe can best do the job. lt seems like such a simple procedure: yet. without these men who so willingly give us their services. many problems which threaten our school would go unsolved. The president of the board is Sidney D. O'Shea. who manages the Genesee Valley Cereal Compauyg Lester A. Pridgeon. General Manager of the Le Roy Division of the General Foods Company, is secre- tary and clerk. Other members are Grover VV. Lapp, consulting engineer for the Ceramic ln- dustries. Clarence A. Lapp, who is associated with the Lapp Lumber Company, Ralph L. hlenner. president of the Lapp Insulator Company, Harris Page 8 Maclienzie, who operates a farm at the corner of the York and llarris Roads. and .-Xlmeron XY. XX'ilcox, who also operates a farm at the corner of Circular llill Road and the Oatka Trail. These men are family men with children of their own attending school. and problems to solve like those of everyone else. Nevertheless, they give to us their time and energy with no tangible reward for their ettorts, but the satisfaction of a task ful- tilled. These men are gifted with the exceptional qualities that enable them to do their job well. They aid in improving the various associations within the school. such as sports, art and music. Our building and construction program now under way would never have been started if it were not for these unseltish men, who offer us their guidance, on the Board of Education. The 1951 O-at-kan of

Superintendent of Schools MATTIIICNV XV. GAFFNEY. A.IL. M.A. Ilolmrt College, Howzirsl lT11ive1'sity Ihiiversity of R0l'llL'SiGl' A school building is an investment in youth. lt is an expression of faith that each new generation holds an unfulfilled promise of greatness, which educa- tion can bring to fruition. A school building is a symbol of democracy. It is a physical demonstration of a great belief that men are created equal and deserve an equal opportunity to develop their best talents to the limits of their abilities. A school is a monument to the men and women of vision and courage who by their sacrifices through the years have made possisble free education in a free America. A school building is an empty shell that must have inspired teachers, devoted students, and a loyal supporting community before it can become alive. ln short, when the building is Hnished our work will have only begun.
