MR. WARREN L. THWEAT—Principal Administration Helps Students The faces of every high school are the reflec- tions of its administration. Blackstone High School is no exception. Our academics, extracur- ricula, and student participation are centered around our administration. Our principal, Mr. Warren L. Thweat, our fac- ulty, and our secretaries all show many faces in their work and assistance to the students. Many members of our faculty sponsor clubs and coach sports, plus teaching classes. The secretaries who assist Mr. Thweat can be seen doing anything from typing the daily bulletin to preparing re- port cards. Throughout the year our adminis- tration shows many faces, all of these depend- ing on their experiences and knowledge. The faces of BHS can be seen every day throughout our school in all we and our adminis- tration do. IN HIS OFFICE, MR. THWEAT looks over papers sent to him and copes with problems at hand. MR. HUGH L. BLANTON—Division Superintendent, Nottaway County

Teachers Counsel College Bound Students This year we are very fortunate to have a new library to work and browse in. We are also for- tunate to have this new addition to the school in the capable hands of Mrs. Sanger, our librar- ian. She is always ready to assist the students in any way. There are plans to move the guidance office downstairs. This is a vital office to students. One must go here for advice and for help in ap- plying to a college. Mrs. Carson is our guidance counselor. She is a friend to each of the students. Her job also consists of keeping all of the students’ records, giving aptitude tests, and helping juniors and seniors in deciding on a college or other employ- ment after graduation. Both of these services are essential to the stu- dents. MRS. SARAH CARSON, the guidance counselor, looks over one of the student’s files. 7 = MRS. MOLLIE SANGER, the school librarian, checks the new books that have just come in. MRS. SANGER HELPS a student in checking out a book from the library.
