Clark And Koehn Head District The school year of 1967-68 has been one of many challenges and accomplishments for the stu- dents and faculty’ of Concordia Senior High School. Opportunities are available to every student if only sought, as well as achievements if there is a will- ingness to pay the price of hard work and dedication. It is so easy in our society today for young people to follow the fatalistic philosophy of such groups as the hippies , sit-inners, and militant noncon- formists. It is generally agreed such methods as used by these groups in pursuing their point of view is not acceptable behavior. In view of the disturbing restlessness in our society, I wish to challenge each student of C. H. S. to face their problem with sound and rational thinking prior to action. Our society needs such leaders and welcomes such persons now and in the future. Congratulations to the Hurkaru staff for the work they have done in recording much of the history of 1967-68 in C. H. S. Best wishes for the future. Mr. Koehn is serving his second year as Assistant Superintendent of Schools. The assistant superinten- dent's duties are varied. Most of his duties come under the broad category of curriculum and instruc- tion. He is concerned with the character and quality of instruction in our school district, includ- ing the regular school year and summer school. Our district participates in several projects which involve federal aid. It is his responsibility to submit these projects and evaluate them, as required. Maintaining and improving the instructional quality in the school is a continuing process. It involves a continuous program of curriculum revi- sion, evaluating the objectives of courses and sub- jects offered, and measurement of educational achievement and progress. The assistant superinten- dent assists in planning in-service growth experi- ences for teachers, the adoption of textbooks and educational materials for use in the district, the measurement of pupils' performance through the district-wide testing program and the evaluating of the services of the instructional staff. 4 --Harold M.
