top truckers bring new aims to chs education Coming into Trucker life and times to oversee the smooth operation of CHS, Mr. Galliford brought new ideas and ways of achieving educational aims with him. As the one in charge of public relations and the academic departments, the new principal also supervised finances, the cafeteria, and school maintenance in addition to providing leader- ship for both teachers and pupils. Mr. Comey found discipline almost a full-time job in his newly-assumed position of assistant principal. Scheduling and super- visory activities consumed the rest of his school duties as he took on the status of the second in command.

10,000 additional books, unprecedented carpeted study area make library “newest room ’ One of the most conspicuous changes made at Churchland was the appearance of the library. All previously-owned hooks hav- ing been taken by Chesapeake, the library immediately began a massive rebuilding pro- gram. This included the purchasing of over ten thousand new hooks ( an increase of two thousand volumes), entirely new visual aids, and the doubling of available space and seat- ing capacity by incorporating an adjoining classroom for visual aids facilities. An un- precedented carpeted study area enabled Trucker hookworms to meditate in “luxuri- ous” surroundings and added a bit of at- mosphere to the entire school.
