Board Of Education The Board of Education of Attica Central School, composed of elected representatives from the school district, is most directly responsible for the construction of our new building. They have struggled through many long and tedious hours in order to have it open for business by last September. Among their tasks were the acceptance of contractor's bids, approving the architect's blueprints, and during the actual construction, approving the appointment of teachers for the school. From all their time spent in conference has risen the beautiful building the high school now occupies. And, although a few things remain unfinished, they can be justly proud and, we hope, compensated for all the time and energy they have given. i W ll 7 MR. V'IC'1OR H.

Besides caring for minor aches and pains, our Health Department provides special examina- tions for the eyes, ears, and teeth, all of which are time consuming and troublesome. A good student must be physically fit and our Health Depart- ment is worldng earnestly to protect the health of every student. OFFICE STAFF EEK OF THE BOARD MRS.RI'1'ACLARK,MR.ROBERTGEDHGE, NR.
