Administration Faces Special Difficulties Changes and emergencies marked the year for the ad- ministration and board of education. The retirement of Frank Willis after 13 years as a school board member brought in Grant Howard as the board's |unior member. Mr. Howard's daughter Kris- ann was a senior, and son Dale a freshman in 1972-73. After the retirement of Douglas Brubaker in 1972, Archie Stephens became su- perintendent of schools. In August, he and his wife Jan- ice welcomed their fourth child, Kyle, who joined sister Crystal and brothers Jeffry and Eric. Mr. Stephens, a 1957 Dun- can High graduate, received the B.S. degree at Grand Canyon College, and the M. Ed. at Arizona State Univers- ity. He taught eighth grade four years and science in high school one year in Duncan. He served as Greenlee County superintendent of schools and as Morenci High School principal before returning to Duncan. Mr. Chapman, a 1949 DHS graduate, received his B. Ed. and M. Ed. at Northern Ari- zona University, returned to Duncan in 1957 to teach and coach, and became principal in 1964. With the flood in October, emergencies piled in. Mr. Stephens met with architects, inspectors, and government representatives before the decision was made to aban- don the flood-damaged ele- mentary building and to re- build. Mr. Chapman was busy re- arranging the school sche- dule when elementary class- es shared high school rooms till temporary buildings ar- rived for fifth through sev- enth grades. Also, he de- signed a revised schedule for 1973-74. to eliminate the float system and 70-minute periods and to permit all six periods to meet daily. High school enrollment dropped slightly from 1971- 72: the elementary rose a- bout 135 over what had been expected for the year. ARCHIE L. STEPHENS Superintendent FLOYD D. CHAPMAN Principal Mr. Stephens peeks at first portable to arrive. Buildings filled driveway a- bove the playing fields. 21
