Carver High School - Memories Yearbook (Winston Salem, NC)

IN MEMORY OF MR. CARL ROOSEVELT MARTIN, JR. Carver High School has lost a scholar, friend, advisor and a great administrator. There is no other way of describing our beloved principal because he was devoted to the furthering of our education. Mr. Martin taught at various schools in Forsyth County as both a teacher and principal. In 1950, he became assistant principal at Carver Consolidated School and served until 1953 when he was appointed principal. His work at Carver achieved for him a high status in operation of union schools. He was a consultant in that field at a number of summer institutes. To the students of Carver High School Mr. Martin endowed his profound enthusiasm. As a principal he was demanding. But somehow you didn’t really mind working for him. You always knew that no matter how hard you worked to improve our school, he worked that much harder to become a more dedicated and effective principal. Although he was a principal, Mr. Martin never stopped being a teacher and a student. He was always searching, studying, and striving for improvement and knowledge. Yes, we at Carver High School have lost a scholar, friend, advisor and a great administrator. “As man may say he fought his fight, proved his truth by his endeavor.” — Boker w I 15
