FOREWORD Beginning in the spring of 1966 the school administration and faculty began preparations for a year of self-evaluation. This study was intensified with the opening of the 1966-67 ses¬ sion and gained momentum among the students as well as the faculty as the year progressed. By the time the Visiting Evaluation Committee arrived in April numerous reports had been compiled. Below and on the following pages the annual staff wishes to share with the read¬ ers of THE CHILVALEE excerpts from the summaries of some of these reports. CHS PHILOSOPHY We believe that every individual is of in¬ finite worth and for this reason our paramount objective is to help each student in our school, regardless of his intellectual level, social or economic status, realize his worth as an in¬ dividual and develop to the maximum of his abilities. We also believe we should endeavor to enhance the student’s understanding and ap¬ preciation of esthetic, spiritual, and moral values and encourage him to reflect them in his daily living. We believe that one of the chief aims of Chilhowie High School is to inspire our stu¬ dents to know themselves and to become intel¬ lectually prepared, physically healthy, emo¬ tionally mature, and socially adjusted in order to meet the demands of a rapidly changing so¬ ciety.
