BEN F. HURT Principal JULIAN O'N EAL Assistant Principal The school adminisfrafion efficienfly County school officials contribute much to the edu- cation of an individual student. Mr. Hurt, Mr. O'Neal, and the school board strive to execute a common task -that of conducting the school program in a way most advantageous to the student. Forming and enforcing school standards are two of the many duties of Mr. Hurt and Mr. O'Neal, prin- cipal and assistant principal at A.H.S. Students find these men at nearly all school functions, which indi- cates the strong support Mr. Hurt and Mr. O'Neal give the various organizations. The fact that these principals frequently advise the student as to his problems shows the personal concern felt by Mr. Hurt and Mr. O'Neal. As a body of authorities, the Albemarle County School Board handles the maior issues of Albemarle High as a part of the entire county educational pro- gram. The school board spends long sessions care- fully considering each new proiect. Each member participates with his special abilities in an effort to maintain an efficient school system.

A student rises and begins this soliloquy: To be or not to be . . This setting is typical of the ima- ginative atmosphere created by English teachers. Be- sides the customary series of literature and grammar classes, the English department offers composition, speech and drama, and journalism. Five consecutive years of English give students an adequate back- ground in writers, great literature, and personal lan- guage use. Composition class enables students to ana- lyze the world of writing and to practice improving their individual style. Studying speech and drama, pupils learn the art of clearly delivering a speech and of dramatic portrayal. Through journalism, students develop the skill of producing a publication. Foreign language teachers offer French, Latin, and Spanish. Through Latin, students gain insight into ancient civilization, the construction of a language, and English derivation. French and Spanish help the student form skill in reading and speaking in those tongues and in research into the customs and people of those countries. .. u, . X .82 it I 3' '7 ' PR.
