Girding the chasm between the school, the community, and industry is the school board. This group is made up of five High Point citizens who are in- terested in better education for young High Pointers. Their duty is to settle the many prob- lems which arise in our school system annually and to employ new teachers. Those students who frequent the office are continuously ex- posed to the contagious disease -good humor. The spreader of this healthy disease is our school secretary, Mrs. Johnsie Jackson. Although she often plays a close second to an octopus-issuing books, phoning, filing reports, and efficiently managing the general office - Mrs. Jackson flashes a happy smile at all who enter her abode. The school board is made up of Mr. D. A. Rawley, Mrs. Blake N 'xx Q Thompson, Mr. William A. Tom- linson, Mr. R. M. Campbell, and Mr. J. B. Phillips. 1 I Q i A-.JB 'L X-4, J:-1 JK' 54. fi- s j4..J.. 2 ' N l J.. --L.1..l if A , G., , ..,,,.:-',..Y .. , W ,,,....-- ..,.-

Our PreParation The person who keeps yo u r record in order and who aids Mrs. Jackson in the general Qi office is the school registrar, Mrs. Doris Teague. Helping seniors to complete their college applications a n d getting off their transcripts is an endless task for her. Aside from this, she finds time to give students information, register new stu- dents, and be in general a Handy Man. ll Ever-present to keep our ofiice smooth-running and efiicient, the members of the General Office Staff must have the speed of Mercury-answering students' incessant questions, answering the telephone, or responding to calls of Mrs. Jackson and Mrs. Teague. l 2 z 2 19
