At the end of A he hall in a bright and homey otlice, Mr. S. Todd Perley, the Superintendent of Schools, is busylearly and late. Though con- stantly confronted by problems ot' the day, his tar reaching experience, his knowledge of edu- cational developments, and his well known executive ability serve to make ditlicult questions easily solved. To him come the faculty and students seeking: counsel. To him come the friends ot' the s'hool to keep abreast with its progress. All tin him dignitied, yet friendly, and wise, yet toleralnt. Our Superintendent has always been inteiiested in the improvement made by the individual student. ln order to check on this, each springi comprehensive tests are given to the various cl sses. The results are carefully tabulated, and the findings are tiled in the students' cumula.:tive folders. Mr. Perle-v's record as a present day educator shows character, friendship, and intelligence. Twenty-tive yeails ot' service to the Avalon com- munity have resulted in cooperative consequences l both in and out of school circles. At the present time lVlr. Perley is completing his second year as a member of the Executive Council of the Penn- sylvania State Education Association, he is secretary of the District Superintendents of Schools, and is a member of the American Association of School Administrators. Actively interested in the North Boroughs' Lions' Club, Mr. Perley has acted as this organization's president. His recreational interests center in tishing.
