The second anniversary of the Bellmarette Joint School District is ripe with sig- nificance for both the district and its hard-working supervising principal, George E. Fee. Having no tradition to guide him or precedent to fall back upon, Mr. Fee can View with pride a secure and well organized school system. The task to which Mr. Fee has dedicated himself is to organize the schools so that they can best serve the interests of the youth in the communities. His philosophy of education has a long term aspect. It is built upon that which will best prepare the student for the role he or she is to play in life rather than that which will give pleas- ure for the moment. The wisdom of this policy is written in the annals of the alumni who return again and again to express their gratitude for the education that they have received. During the paSt two years, Mr. Fee has been hard at work standardizing text- books, modernizing teaching aids, and improving methods of instruction. He has been especially interested in broadening the curriculum in the junior and senior high schools to stimulate student interest so that the graduation percentage will increase. His quiet dignity and vital personality typifies the spirit of the new Bellmarette administration which is producing a modern, progressive system. ords with Marif' Bou'xc'r, school

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.
