administration ' 52-1 BQYS' VICE PRINCIPAL: Mr, Gordon Fine GIRLS' VICE PRINCIPAL: Mrs. Pauline Swain Each of us must avoid complacency if our country is to remain strong, and all who would lead, must dedicate themselves to principles which serve the common good. Being able to serve in such an outstanding high school is a privilege which few receive. May all of you upon leaving Birmingham maintain your tremendous spirit which will undoubtedly help you to reach the high standards you have achieved here at Birmingham. PRINCIPAL: Mr. Thomas D. Parry This school year saw the commencement of the first phase of our long-awaited building program. We have watched eagerly the slow and tedious work of preparation of the grounds, installation of utilities and supplemental services, construc- tion of foundations and concrete slabs, and the erection of the super-structures. Similarly, students graduation from Birmingham High School have, through time-consuming and sometimes tedious processes, laid the ground work and foundations upon which they will build their futures. For new buildings, as well as students, the basic framework is of the utmost importance. To strengthen this foundation for students, several new phases have been introduced in our educational program. This year's graduates are the first to meet the increased graduation requirements and the more exacting major sequences. The new approach in the Foreign Languages, the modern Mathematics, additional Science offerings, and requirement of work in the Fine and Practical Arts indicate that today's students are attaining a well-rounded educational experience. We hope that on this foundation each student will be able to build a life in which he can have pride and satisfaction.
