A. Smith and school board members. Aware of the need for land for future expansion, the school board purchased approximately three acres adjacent to the front campus. To strengthen the educational program, the administration provided for the teaching of additional subject matter in both the elementary and the high school. General secretarial work, bookkeep- ing, and even the ordering and sale of textbooks were all a part of Mrs. Pearl Irving's duties in her position as secre- tary to the superintendent of scho ols. Miss Geraldine Stimpson became Mrs. William Sanderson during the summer but continued to serve as school secre- tary.

Faculty Members Sponsor Class Although there were few faculty changes, the teaching staff was increased by the appointment of Mrs. Barbara M. Robinson, a 1959 Cumberland High School graduate, as an instructor for the girls' physical education classes. Her husband, B. Don Robinson, III, re- placed Mr. W. W. Worrell as physical education instructor for the boys and football coach. Mrs. Jane Womack, formerly a teacher at John Randolph School, was able to resume her duties as a fourth-grade teacher. Mrs. Wo- mack's return to the elementary faculty enabled Mrs. Juanita Simonini, who came to Cumberland last year, to teach French in the elementary school as well as in the high school. Mrs. Carolyn S. Baber returned to the faculty at mid- term when she replaced Mrs. Robbie Whitlock, who had taken a leave of absence to continue work toward her degree. Even though the name remained the same, there was a change in com- mercial teachers.
