T960 finds Duncan High School ready to move to a new school plant. The present staff of 46 teachers and three secretaries carry out a well planned program for modern living. An alert Board of Educa- tion works diligently with Superintendent Dion C. Wood. Principal Glen Waters, assisted by Randall Holladay, lead well trained class- room teachers in a scholastic curriculum rated with the better schools in Oklahoma. There has been sharp progress in Duncan High School during the last twenty years. ln T938 the present auditorium was considered an ultra modern addition. Today it will not seat the student body. In T940 Mr. Wood took the position of superintendent. There was then a student body of 698 and a faculty of thirty. Both have almost doubled. Although every available space has been converted into classrooms, the school is overcrowded. The spacious rooms of the new building will be welcomed by both students and teachers. Duncan has followed the trend of increasing the opportunity to study mathematics, science, and modern languages. The new build- ing will have fine laboratories and one of the best language labora- tories in the southwest. The well-rounded program of DHS is a result of the unselfish ser- vice of teachers who are always willing to work beyond the call of duty inside the classroom and to give of their time in the various clubs of the departments.
