The faculty and administration, though frequently given the least credit, are the most important builders in any school sys- tem. They mold students’ character; help them to gain knowledge; encourage them to develop their talents; and teach them to profit from new ideas, new experiences, and their opportunities. Through the efforts of the Franklin Coun- ty School Board, we will have a new junior high school where we can offer more and better opportunities for all students of Franklin County. The school will better en- rollment situations of six county schools. An extra group of 300 to 400 pupils from the eighth and ninth grades of Boones Mill, Callaway, Ferrum, Henry, and eighth grad- ers from Glade Hill will enter the new build- ing. This will provide an estimated enroll- ment of 900 pupils in grades eight and nine at the junior high and 700 in grades ten, eleven, and twelve at the senior high.
