DR. ROBERT GARD PRINCIPAL In his first year as principal of West, Dr. Robert Gard, met the double challenge of establishing his new adminis- tration and making the new Flexible Scheduling System work. Dr. Gard developed a deep respect for West High tradition and West's strong student organization. Under Dr. Gard's direction, the problems created by Flexible Scheduling were remedied and plans were made to ex- pand and modify the system. He expressed his strong be- lief in the success of the '66-'67 school year in a message to the students: Another year of West High's history has been writ- ten. not in pen and ink only, but also in lives and experi- ences. In ways we sometimes recognize - in others that more subtly dwell in the subconscious - all of us have changed and grown. For many of you, this spring marks the end of your investment of hours and effort in your high school edu- cation: for others, it is a station along the way. For all, the year has been a time of gain -in memories, in knowl- edge, in skills. May this summer and the coming year - and all your coming years - be progressively more pleasant and re- warding. W Dr. Gard has guided West through the many crises which the year presented. His leadership has helped keep - and will continue to keep - West among the leading high schools in the United States.

Disciplinary problems filling only half their busy year, Miss Ieanne Bailey and Mr. Ierome Siegel spent much of their time coordinating West's varied extra-curricular activities. As Administrative Assistant for Girls, Miss Bailey was primarily concerned with the coordination of the total activity program at West. She commented on the effects of the Flexible Scheduling: Our new program has resulted in more freedom for the students and this has made it necessary for each one to accept more individual responsibility. Now that we have had one year to function with- in the framework of our new program, all students should have a greater awareness of the advantages offered by the program and in the future make greater use of the opportunities available to them. Mr. Siegel, Administrative Assistant for Boys, coordinated West's activity program in addition to aiding students with discipline and attendance prob- lems. Mr. Siegel stated his faith in the West High Student: In completing my second year at West High, I have noticed a developing awareness, on the part of the vast maiority of students. of their responsibilities towards their school, peers, and activity participa- tion. Keep up the good work! ADMINISTRATION 15
