THE ALMA MATER Oh, come, let's sing our Wooster's praise And songs to Alma Mater raise, And for the school we hold most high, Welll raise our voices to the sky. To her, we pledge our hearts and hands, And loyal to her each one stands, Preserve her honor, far and near, Because we love her, Wooster dear. page eleven

Shamel THE BOARD OF EDUCATION The l955-56 school year has been a busy and successful one for the Board of Education. During the year accomplishments have been made in two major fields. In the field of organization there have been several firsts. This has been the first year that all elementary principals have been assigned to fulltime administrative positions. For the first time this year the high school has had both a Dean of Girls and Dean of Boys assigned as such. This is also the first year that the principal has had an assistant. This change was made with the understanding that when the junior High is completed in the fall, the high school as- sistant principal will become principal of the Junior High. This is the first year that the Board has had a fulltime clerk. As always, building has been an important consideration for the Board. During the year the members have seen the completion of the new eleven-room Parkview elementary school and have approved the addition of a cafeteria and handicraft rooms to the present Bowman Street school. This change will make possible the use of Bowman as a junior High in the fall. The Board has approved plans for a completely new shop program and gymnasium for Wooster High, both of which are now under construction. Finally, plans have been tentatively ap- proved for a new suite of high school administrative offices in the near future. During the year Mr. Chester Shamel was elected to the Board. The Board joined the newly organized State Board of Education. Previously it had belonged to the Northeastern Ohio organization. The Board of Education puts in many long hours endeavoring to- give the students of the VVooster public schools the best school system possible. The members of the Board, says Mr. Bodenbender, deserve much credit for their willingness and desire to give of their time unlimitedly to furthering the cause of education in our community.
