Archbold High School - Blue Streak Yearbook (Archbold, OH)

It was 9:30 one evening, and the school was dark except for one room. The lights shone clearly to the outside from Mr. Spengler’s office. He was completing his state reports for his nineteenth consecutive year as superin- tendent of the Archbold-Local School District. As Mr. Spengler sat at his large wal- nut desk, he thought back over his thir- ty-five year educational career. It was 1937 when he came to Archbold as a teacher. He later became principal, and in 1948, superintendent. Mr. Spengler has taught a variety of subjects while at Archbold, some of them being history, biology, govern- ment, and psychology. He received his B.S. degree from Bowling Green State University and his M. A. degree from the University of Michigan. The job of superintendent is a very time consuming one, but over the years Mr. Spengler has found time for his hobbies of golfing, fishing, traveling, watching sports events, and collecting antiques. He and Mrs. Spengler attend many auctions and have a large variety of beautiful and interesting antiques dis- played in their home. Mr. Spengler is eagerly looking forward to travel after his retirement. A Long Career In Education 4

Draws To A Close It has been a busy nineteen years as superintendent: board meetings every month, records to be completed, budgets to be prepared and new programs to be started. Retirement has been long awaited. The last state report is now completed. The office lights fade as a long, success- ful career draws to a close. 5
