WE ARE SCHOLARS... Our classes with built-in homework, discussions, experiments, and tests are the first interest at Central; but they offer us much more than just an education. We get our track practice running up to chemistry lab just after a vigorous workout in gym and learn to brave the weather scurrying to and from the home ec building. Report cards reflect the long hours of open books, typewriters, Cokes, and the inevitable theme paper shortages. Our highly qualified and dedicated teachers instill in us the desire to learn and to get the most out of our high school years. We learn by many devices, but all have a common purpose of developing students to assume positions as citizens in the world of tomorrow. 15

Dr. Anthony Marinaccio Superintendent of Schools Standards and Rule! The Davenport Board of Education is an instru- ment of the Iowa State Legislature, which is respon- sible for setting policies for public schools in the city. The system includes two senior high schools, four junior highs, and 20 elementary schools. It is the school board s function to provide build- ings, grounds, efficient teachers, and the proper cur- riculum to teach students, from kindergarteners to high school seniors. Regularly scheduled monthly meetings arc held to discuss these important matters, and special meetings arc called as the need arises. The elected board hires the superintendent of schools, administrative staff, school principals, and teachers to function according to its policies. Actions by tl e school board are taken always with the student and his education foremost in mind. It is the administration’s goal that the younger genera- tion may grow up as well educated citizens. Likewise is the goal of Central’s administration, whose guidance far outweighs the detention notices. Discussing business at hand during one of its monthly meetings is the Davenport Hoard of Education. Pictured around the table are: Dr. James Rogers; Dr. J. Brown White; Mr. Lester Jones; Supt. Anthony Marinaccio; Mr. Thomas Nobis, president; Miss Viola Waack. secretary: Dr. Gordon Flynn. Mr. Raymond Judd; Mr. Paul Norton. 16
