Benton High School’s new principal is Lamar Hicks who comes to us from Fulton, Missouri. Mr. Hicks first attended Harding, a private school in Searcy, Arkansas. While serving in the Air Force for eight years as a medic, he also attended night school. After attending other schools, he went to South East Mo. University, Cape Girardeau where he has almost obtained his docterate degree. All that is left for him to do is write his dissertation. One of the first things Mr. Hicks noticed when he entered the school was the red lockers, because red is his favorite color. He also said he found Benton’s atmosphere as one of the extreme friendliness; graduates as well as other south siders are very proud to have Benton in their community. Compared to other schools where he has worked, he finds Benton’s basic curriculum and Honors Pro- gram very challenging for students. Although he does not know much about Hillyards, he feels it’s a good program and the students who participate in it can get an excellent vocational education. Mr. Hicks is impressed that a number of teachers have chosen to stay at Benton long enough that many of their students have returned as teachers. He and they give the various teams the incentive to go out and give it their all. Mr. Hicks has four children, two attend college and two attend high school in Fulton. Some of his hobbies are walking, reading, and ce- ramics; but his major interest is his work here at school. When asked to make a quote about Benton, he promptly replied “Love Those Cardinals” which he thought summed up the entire feeling at Benton High School.
