Mr. T. P. Smith. principal of l the Bloomsburg junior-Senior High School, is an alumnus of that School. He attended the B l o o in s b ur g State Normal School and received his degree of B. S. at Gettysburg College. Following that he attended the Massachusetts Institute 0fTech- nology, University of Pennsyl- vania, Pennsylvania State Col- lege, and the New York Uni- versity to do work toward high- er degrees. In 1922-24 he was a teacher and coach in the Myerstown High School, Myerstown, Pennsylvania. In 1924 he became a general science teacher in the Bloomsburg High School. In I928 he was promoted to the position of principal of the Iunior-Senior High School. Since he has been principal of this school he has done many things to make it one of the finest schools in this section of the state. Mr. Smith established student government in the high school. He has built up a fine cooperative spirit in the school. Never before were the ideals for clean sports and good citizenship so high and yet so nearly attained by so many in the school. Mr. Smith with the help of Dr. Garwood revised and bettered the program of studies in the school. A number of new courses were added and the pupils were given a wider range from which to choose. Mr. Smith has always set before the schools, ideals a little in advance of what had been there before, and so too he sets before the graduating class a high standard to aim toward in the follow- ing message to them: nThe greatest justification of our public schools is the improve- ment of citizenship. That citizen is best who serves best. May you continue to justify our faith in public education by your citi- zenship.
