As Bessemer High School has grown and diversified, it has become increasingly necessary to up-date the method of administration. Previously the burden rested safely on the shoulders of the principal. This year, however, our executive staff was enlarged to facilitate the operation of our school. This enlargement encompassed an Assistant Principal, Dean of Girls, and Dean of Boys. Mr. E. M. Latta became the new Assistant Principal; Mrs. Naomi McCluskey, the Dean of Girls; and Mr. William H. Hunter, the Dean of Boys. It is often hard to establish definitely the functions of each office for it is certain that an administrator must be eager and willing to lend himself to any of the facets con- nected with an educational institution. Basically it is the Assistant Principal's task to represent the official viewpoint in student-administration relationships. The Dean of Girls, Mrs. McCluskey, is also our high school guidance counselor. It is her assignment to work closely with the female students on any problem, individual or collective, which might affect that group. Also, it is her duty to assist seniors in completing college transcripts and scholarship applications. The Dean of Boys works almost entirely with the male students. It is his authority to mete out any disciplinary action which might be necessary. It is practically impossible to estimate the value of these three officials, not only to the administration but to the student body as well. They do a tremendous job in giving Bessemer the enjoyable, scholarly atmosphere we have. For their efforts for, and loyalty to, Bessemer High School, we express our appreciation. MR. E. M.
