' DEANSBORO GRADE SCHOOL The New Deansboro School During the past year an important enlargement of Central District No. 1 was made when the voters of District No. 4, town of Marshall, including the village of Deansboro, voted to annex their school district. To meet the educational needs of the added village a new modern school build- ing was erected providing three class rooms, an otlice, and a combined recreation room and auditorium. The class rooms are equipped throughout with movable furniture and have waxed maple block floors. ln the corridor is found a marble tirazzo fioor. The recreation hall is provided with a fully equipped stage which has white and colored liorder and footlights under dimmer control. In the rear of the school is a two-acre playground with adequate facilities. The school was used for the first time on March lst. The building was appropriately dedicated with fitting exercises on Mav 5th. Ray P. Snyder, Chief ol' the Division of Rural Education, State Education Depart- ment, gave the principal address. The people of Deansboro are to lie congratulated on the step they have taken to provide the best educational opportunities possible for the boys and girls of that community. 5. 1

In its practical application lies the way to successful endeavor. Kipling has said: lt ainit the individual Nor the army as a whole, But the everlastin' teamwork Of every bloomin, soul. This yearbook is the product of cooperative effort on the part of students, teach- ers. merchants and friends of the public schools of this Central District. Sharing our knowledge, skill, time and money is but one phase of cooperation as we know it in the educational field. To insure the advantages of group action, we stress co- operation among all the teachers, students and organizations in the whole school dis- trict. Education must ever be a cooperative enterprise involving some effort put forth by every desirable element of the local situation. The school sets up certain major objectives in health, fundamental processes, worthy home membership, vocation, citizenship, worthy use of leisure and ethical character. To realize these objectives the home, school, church, the state and inter- national relations must each contribute its best and work hand in hand with each other. Thus may our boys and girls develop an appreciation for cooperation among all these agencies in social life. Working together we may provide opportunities by which children shall be brought to a progressive understanding of their responsibil- ity for social progress and of the problems, practices and institutions of social life. Will our students realize the necessity for training in capacity for intelligent organization so that they can unite with others in a common struggle to preserve and perpetuate the ideals of our democracy? Arthur A. Radley, Supervising Principal.
