Lf e ,ip rl iff ii-'7 Student morale, esprit de corps-attitudes that flow from a sum of satisfying experiencesf' these were the results that Mr. Barker set out to achieve as principal of Bellmar High School. And in two short years he has organized a vastly swollen student body with varying traditions into a remarkably unified group. Perpetual motion is daily routine for Mr. Barker. Besides planning, scheduling and assigning the curricular program, he directs the athletic program and the co-cur- ricular activities in the high school. A sizable portion of his time is spent in public relations. Numerous phone calls and personal interviews with parents, representa-- tives of community organizations, and former students are time consuming. His genial and enthusiastic personality has made see Barker about it standard but good advice to any one with a problem. The high school has begun to feel the benefits of his consistent effort to improve and expand the quality of its education. Mr. Barker is a potent force toward unity, pride, and achievement in the district.

Robert Van Bremen, assistant supervising principal, is proof of the mathemat- ical principle that the whole is equal to the sum of all its parts. Mr. Van Bremen is a vital and dynamic part of the Bellmarette administration. He insures the financial success of the district without which any other success would be impossible. He is dedicated to seeing that every dollar spent by the district is a good investment in the future for the youth in the community. Many long tedious hours, without glorification, are spent by Mr. Van Bremen in preparing the school budget, surveying the transportation problems of the district, setting up sys- tems for requisitions and inventory control, compiling State and local reports, and many other jobs too numerous to mention. ' Mr. Van Bremen,s tasks concerning the mechanics of the administration do not keep him from being vitally interested or using his influence in formulating the edu- cational program. He is whole hearted in his recommendation that the district use all available materials in modernizing its educational program through the use of films, film strips, library references, current publications, recordings, etc. His enthusiasm, determination, and genial manner have been an inspiration in building a better school system.
