DEDICATION To Coquille s interest in education, represented by the proposed new high school, we proudly dedicate this 1951 LAUREL. It has been said that the hope of the world lies in the education of its youth. Our world needs inspired leaders and intelligent followers, trained for independent thinking and right living. Schools have become civilization's main hope for this educational process, so we are realizing that finer schools mean finer training. The people of Coquille, aware of the importance of well-educated future citizens, have x’oted to build a new secondary school for the community. Our dedication of the 1951 LAUREL is to this culmination of educators' dreams in the Coquille area —a new high school! Representing the growth of the community and its optimism, this new school will make learning more pleasant for its fortunate students, and will be a source of pride to Coquille. The Laurel Staff, 1951 2

ADMINISTRATION The school board of Coquille is charged with the responsibility of providing the facilities and setting the policies for the school, and for the district. These policies are carried out by the Superintendent and Principal, with the aid of the teachers. The board meets every second Monday, and often has special meetings at other times. Each member of the board serves for five years, becoming the chairman in his fifth year. A new member is placed on the board each year, so that there are always at least four members who are familiar with the policies of the past. The chairman for the year of ’50-’51 was Mr. Guy Mauney. The school board does a lot more work than many of us seem to know. Very often, a meeting starting at 7:30 was apt to continue until past midnight. These meetings were for us. The Superintendent may be called an “In-between-man”. His job is that of initiating new policies, keeping the old policies working smoothly, through those under his authority, and also of taking the proposals of those people to the board. The Principal has the responsibility to see that the High School is run efficiently. His duties lie in the area of guidance as he acts as councelor to both teachers and students. Also, he must manage the finances of the student body. School Board (left to right) Mr. Guy Mouney. Chairman; Mrs. Ray Jeub; Mr. A. F.

However, for the rest of the time, starting in the school year of ’52-’53, the students of Coquille High School will be in a new building, which will have more facilities, and then the curriculum, as well as the extra-curricular activities, will broaden.
