RATION MR. YLVISAKER Have oti noticed a new attitude in our school? This new life has been brought about by a new theme -CO-OPERATION. Our new principal- leader, efficient organizer is known for his constant good humor; his interest in everyone: as an advocate of discipline while at the same time he is the impersonation of kindliness. Ilis Philosophy” has been introduced to us through his never ceasing efforts to improve conditions here. We are all acquainted with Blanche Harfst. As you all know she is the hard working, ever working, quiet and efficient office secretary. Josephine Riehl, who is always pleasant and cheerful, handles the problems of the outer office, is Mr. Ylvisaker's private secretary, and the general information bureau for students. THE BOARD The Board of Education, our base of support, is the second element in co-operative education. They are constant thinking of the students, our problems, wants, and needs, and how to solve them satisfactorily. As a result we have the Leyden Community High School of 1941, its faculty and students. This car. two of the Board’s most faithful members. Mrs. Dodge and Mr. Mueller, are retiring after a full term of service. Their loyalty to Leyden is our guidance to success. P A R ENTS The parents have had much school activity this year. A new program introduced by the new' administration has gone forward with much enthusiasm among parents, teachers and students alike. It is based on total co-operation. Parent Nights after each grading period have been a new feature. Parents at school when their boys and girls are not in trouble builds a more underdtanding, healthful School-communitx relationship. Teachers at the homes makes the expression Home Room Teacher” meaningful. Co-operation—guidance understanding- watchwords of true democracy.
