Cuupfmzu BOARD OF EDUCATIO ln the final analysis the credit for our finished reel, of which we are so proud, must go to the Board of Education, whose work, like that of the motion picture producers, takes place behind the scenes. Almost as rapid as the growth of the motion picture industry itself has been the growth of Brighton. From a small rural community this section has grown, within less than twenty years, to a community that must provide for nearly 1,500 children of school age. Although the school has been somewhat overcrowded during this period of rapid expansion, no serious curtailment of education facilities has ever been necessary. From the first the Board adopted a far-seeing building program that provided for this steady increase in school population and, when it became apparent that one building was no longer adequate, the fine new high school was begun on Winton Road. Although mindful of the need for modern schools and modern equipment, our Board has ever realized that the reputation of a school depends upon its faculty. With the utmost care it has selected our teachers, choosing only those whose experience and training have made them worthy leaders of youth. Oldest member in point of service on this Board is Mrs. Edward Miles, whose interest in the school and enthusiasm for its accomplishments increase with the years. Allan B. Gates, President of the Board since December, 1936, has carried on the tradition of unselfish service begun by his predecessor in office, Dr. Shirley R. Snow. Other members of the Board to whom we are deeply grateful are Robert M. Van Order, lvar N. Hultman, and Schuyler C. Wells,Jr. C. Walter Coapman is Treasurer of the Board.
