MR. JOSZEPH A. BRUTON MR. ROBERT PARKINSON MRS. VIOLA S. SOUTHERN MR. H. FRANK CAREY MR. JOHN J. DOYLE lfrfe-freszdrnt District No. 16 District No. 5 District No. 17 District NO. 17 District NO. 16 1953 1952 194-1 1952 1950 Boord oi HE Board of Education of Central High School District 42 is unique in structure in that its membership is composed of trustees from the Boards of Education of New Hyde Park, Elmont, Franklin Square and Floral Park. Two members from each of these component boards are selected to serve on the central board but represent the entire central area and not the local district. While this imposes a double burden on each member of the High School Board, its value has been well proven by the high standards of edu- cation within the elementary districts and the integration of the total educational pattern from grades K through 12 throughout the Central District. In a high school such as Sewanhaka, the problems of business and finance, while tremendous, are almost secondary to the develop- ment of its comprehensive educational program, A high degree of commendation is due to the Administration and the board members of the previous 25 years from whose cooperative efforts has evolved a system of education which has made the name Sevvanhaka synony- mous with outstanding secondary education in America. They have provided the best educational system possible within the economic ability of the taxpayer. They have maintained a high degree of morale among the staff and student body to the end that education is an enthusiastic process. The educational process is basically one Vci ucoiion MR. VICTOR G.

XVRIGHT, M.A. SllfH'l l'I.fi71g Prinripnl 1930 Principals Message URING the last 30 years the concepts of American educa- tion have changed and expanded as a greater understand- ing of pupil needs grew out of rapidly changing conditions in American life. It became clear that the old purely academic high school no longer met the needs of increasingly large numbers of pupils. Sewanhaka High School was awake to these changing needs of youth and pioneered in the Held of the establishment of the comprehensive high school. Under the farsighted leader- ship of Dr, A. T. Stanforth, Principal for fifteen years, and with the help of the Board of Education, the administration, the faculty and active advisory committees, the school became recognized both nationally and internationally as an outstanding example of this type of high school. A survey of the program which has developed under this plan shows that all pupils of all interests work together in all phases of life in the schoolg a fine example of American Democracy in action. There is no better example of education meeting the needs of all children of all the people than the comprehensive type of high school. Under the Central High School law as it existed in the early days, this school was privileged to have a considerable assistance in terms of increased state aid to the extent of almost 75'I of the cost of operation in the school year 1935-36. The state continued to pay over 60 TE of the total cost through the school year of 19-I-3--H. This gave the young people of the com- munities coinposing the Central High School District a tre- mendous advantage in terms of educational facilities and in no small measure was responsible for our outstanding program for the first 25 years.
