Superintendent and School Board V TO THE STUDENTS: i The word excelsior may be used to mean a material of curled shreds used for packing, or in a more significant sense to serve as the motto of the state of New York to mean more lofty or ever-upward. ln the latter sense it may well apply as a motto for Central and as a guide to life. This year has been one of outstand- ing improvements to the buildings and grounds with which every student is familiar. Likewise, the spirit of Cen- tral has been for higher standards and more lofty attainments and may well guide us in the days to come. Those who adopt the word in its full- est and best sense will not be disappoint- ed and will carry through the years a priceless boon. MR. WHITEFORD I Mr. VVhiteford has been superintendent of the Cape Girardeau Public Schools for nine years. ln preparation for his work he studied at the Kirksville 'Teachers College, re- ceiving a Bachelor's degree from that institution. His graduate work was done in New York University in New York City, from which he was graduated with a Master of Arts degree. Prior to his coming to Cape Girardeau, Mr. Whiteford was located at Oklahoma City, Oklahoma and St. Joseph, Missouri, at which places he was head of the school sys- tem. His work as an administrator and his broad educational outlook have attracted many co-workers in the state, thus bringing about his election to the office of president and secretary of the Missouri State Teachers' Association on two occasions. During his stay here the public schools of Cape Girardeau have undergone many im- provements. The new Franklin School was built: twelve rooms and an auditorium were added to Washington: eight rooms were annexed to May Greeneg the Central annex and the school proper were connected, thereby facilitating the passing of classesg and this year Central received a new gym floor, a cafeteria and improvements on the school grounds. Be- cause of his keen interest in. public schools and community affairs, Mr. VVhiteford has been a decided asset to our public school system. BOARD OF EDUCATION Itlemljef TCFITI Expires Mr. A. M.
