' if MR. EDWIN C. PECK, SUPERVISING PRINCIPAL an MRS. HASTINGS, SECRETARY bc-I HE Master builder ot progress and wholesome activity in Eden Central School is Mr. Edwin C. Peck, our supervis- ing principal. Having served on the Buildings and Grounds committee in the State Department at Albany, Mr. Peck is the ideal person to supervise the construction of the new addition to our building. During his two years here, he has built a strong student morale by means of an active student council. On May 26,1950, he held a Student Council Workshop at this school, inviting councils from several schools in this area to discuss prob- lems of every day living, and the council's part in high school discipline. He is the author of a valuable series of articles called NOTES FROM THE PRINCIPAL'S DESK, published in the EDEN MINIATURE each Week. Parents, students, and teachers find these articles a great aid in keeping up-to-date on pol- icies of the school. Though he has all these duties and pro- jects to consider, Mr. Peck always finds time to give a word of cheer or advice to any student with a problem. 8 f ' .. .xl

BOARD OF EDUCATIO UILDERS of the faith and pride of the people of this district in the efficiency of their school, its children, and its faculty, the members of the Board of Education stand ready to lead in any wholesome project for the betterment of the health, educational facilities, and happiness Of Eden Central School children. They are the surveyors who discovered our need for the new addition to our building and made the plans or blue-prints to build a beautiful and lasting struc- ture not only for us, the Seniors of 1951, but for all the seniors in years to come. We are proud to be the first class to be graduated from the newly completed building, proud that along our way we have known noble people like them and happy in the sense of security we feel in knowing that, in a world of confusion, there are still people who keep faith with the youth of today and their problems. Besides caring for our educational needs, they have built a high standard of student morale by showing us that they believe the adage, All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy. For our emoyment they have given us, at various times during our four years, school parties with dancing, games, and refreshments. They have provided school buses for school picnics, al- lowed us to earn money for our various class projects, and have proved their interest by attend ing our social functions, the junior prom and the senior ball. We seniors, especially, are grate- ful for permission to take our delightful Easter trip to Washington and for their generosity in providing us with the caps and gowns for graduation and the beautiful booklet diplomas that re- present the goal of our twelve years in Eden Central.
