Big Sandy High School - Pioneer Yearbook (Big Sandy, MT)

Text from Pages 1 - 120 of the 1966 volume:

The Annual Staff Of Big Sandy High School Big Sandy, Montana Presents The PIONEER We dedicate this page to Carolyn Myers Martin, whose warm smile, achievement, and devotedness to Big Sandy High School will always be remembered. 2 Dedication It is with sincere gratitude that we, the senior class, dedicate this annual to Mr. Kober, our class sponsor. His wisdom, patience, and devotion to the Class of 1966 has been gTeatly appreciated. Mr. Kober's friendly attitude and understanding ways toward all will always be remembered. 3 School Board ROW 1, L. to R. : Edward Beaudette, Donald Reichelt, Fred Bitz, Mack Quinn, Chairman; ROW 2: Ronald Upham, Jerry Nepil, Art Weaver, Frank Drga, Bill Snow, Clerk. It has been conservatively estimated that local school trustees travel in excess of six thousand miles annually to attend formal school board meetings; these meetings represent a total of at least one thousand man hours. School board members receive no compensation for these duties. In addition, trustees spend many hours on other informal work in connection with the school board activities. This year the work load has increased even more on local trustees as federal aid projects have been developed in the local school system. In addition to federal programs that have been in the school system for some time under various vocational training acts and the National Defense Education Act, the board has secured federal aid in the amound of $16,785. 92 under Title I of the 1965 Elementary and Secondary Education Act. The local board was requested to act as the applicant district for a planning grant in the amount of $63,090. 00 under the Title III of the same Act; this project will concern itself with educational research in a ten county area of North Central Montana. Certainly, school trustees are the unsung heroes of education today! ! Trustees In Action 4 Superintendent's Message All of you have experience growing pains. In a sense, students of today have experienced more such pains than their predecessors. The United States has grown” to the status of unchallenged leader of the Western World in your time. Education has also felt these growing pains, and, as a result, you, the students, have felt this change from yet another source. Unfortunately, we will not know the results of these many changes connected with your era for some time. However, we have many reasons for some confidence when we look at this annual record of your school. Good luck to the Class of 1966, and congratulations to the yearbook staff on a job well done! RAYL. PECK College of Great Falls, B. A., University of Montana, M.A., Montana State University, Superintendent, German, History 5 Principal’s Message Each year the production of the school annual is one of the most significant projects of the school term. It is a permanent record of activities of students, faculty, and organizations within the student body. The volumes of this book year after year become the cumulative history of our school and increases in nostalgic value and meaning as the years pass. This PIONEER and every one is the product of many long hours of hard work by the annual staff and their adviser. I am sure it will portray the image of the Big Sandy school by its organization and con- tent. In addition it will reflect the many areas of school life which so often go unnoticed. I wish to congratulate the editors, Sharon and Penny, the seniors of 1966, and their adviser, Mr. Salmonsen, for their efforts and success in making this Pioneer a worthy addition to the volumes of the History of Big Sandy High School.

Elementary Principal French, Arithmetic Principal's Message The staff of the Miley building would like to ex- tend its good wishes to the graduating class and to the other classes in the high school building. The Principal hopes that each student appreciates the opportunity he has to learn in an atmosphere such as we can provide in a school of this size. The passing days show us more clearly the necessity for a continuing program of study on all levels. Each student owes it to himself to try realizing his cap- abilities and working toward fulfillment. 33 MRS. ROBERTSON MRS. HASHLEY MRS.
