This attitude has contributed greatly to the happiness of our entire population. It has been the beacon light to point to more encouraging signs when discouragement seemed ever ready to gain advantage. To recount the milestones in the climb of Fordson’s educational system to the present enviable status would take the pages of a sizable im- portant part in this progress. The adoption of definite policies and the appraisal of school activities by the Board in line with modern educational thought and procedure has produced an atmosphere of desired proficiency in the teaching corps and auxiliary employees which accepts nothing short of an approach to per- fection and the giving of the best each one possesses. The development of excellent courses of study, fine buildings and equipment establishment of special departments for the physically and mentally handicapped, providing advantages for adults in obtaining citizen- ship papers and opportunity to continue their education, and many other plans to the future advantage of the people of Dearborn have been the dominant factors prompting the activities. The present Board of Education consists of: Homer C. Beadle, President George E. Brady, Vice-President George T. Martin, Secretary Fred Beard, Treasurer Walter Iams, Trustee John E. Alexander, Trustee Norman F. Edwards, Trustee
