FRIENDLINESS Through the organization of the Arthur Hill High School every attempt is made to instill in students a feeling of fellowship and friendliness towards supervision. This organization-in THE ARTHUR HILL WAY-nucleates the work of administrators, faculty, parents, and students. Hillites often see members of their Board of Education, where organization really begins, when members gather in the cafeteria for noon day luncheon meetings. This Board, through Mr. Chester F. Miller, superintendent of schools, and Mr. I. M. Brock, principal, chooses the faculty, maintenance staffs to the building and is re- sponsible for the financial backing which makes Arthur Hill a working public organ. Beginning the year with a membership campaign, 1,760 parents and teachers subscribed to the second consecutive 100 per cent Parent-Teacher Association membership. By organizing so whole- heartedly for student and school benefits, Arthur Hill was again able to report top sponsorship among state schools. Open House, October 7, provided parents with a chance to visit their childrens classes, homerooms, and advisers. Two parties mixed parent, teacher, and student crowds for evening fun. The P-TA Card Party with Club Hillite, March 1, found parents in the cafeteria playing cards, while students met in the gymnasium, to later be joined by parents who were eager to see Hillites' teen-age canteen in action. With filled baskets, Hillite families, including some 1,100 persons, came out to the school cafeteria for the annual potluck and entertainment, May S. An election of new officers completed the associations school year. 8 LEGENDA
