In order to appropriately dedicate this yearbook to Mr. Fred C. MeDavid, our superintendent, it is necessary for our thoughts to journey backward in time. To appreciate Mr. McDavid's contribu- tions we must look back to all the decisions and follow-up tasks demanded by the selection and approval of the minute and the important in everything from a pupil’s desk to the location of the auditorium; back to the coordination and cooperation required by the public parentage of our school; back to the choosing of the faculty and the registering of the student body; back to the form- ulation of policies and their administration; back to the corner-stone laying and our school’s open- ing day; back to his selection of an excellent staff to assist him in carrying out his responsibilities; and back to the culmination of all these efforts which was realized in the dedication of Kichwoods Community High School on November 17, 1957. From this backward look we gain the perspective needed to fully appreciate all of the splendid achievements of Mr. MeDavid and his assistants. This over-all view spurs us all on to a forward look into a brighter future for Kichwoods under the lead- ership of our superintendent to whom this first edition of the EXCALIBUR is respectfully dedicated.
