Gold's luminosity represents the very highest form of intellect, it depicts power and. glory, and is a symbol of what IS valuable or much prized. Gold also represents honor, loyalty and high ideals. Our education, whether it be book-learningn or learning to get along with others is as important in the everyday work of our teachers as it is to us. Faculty and Administration . . .

Superintendent of Schools, Mr. Wesley Wooley Everyone says First things come first , so I decided to start my tour off with a visit to the Superintendent of School District 205. In the Public Library, just a few steps from dear old GHS , is thc office of the superintendent, Mr. Wooley. When I entered, he greeted me with a smile, and soon I really got to know him. Mr. Wooley told me that this was his first year as superintendent, but I believe the effectiveness with which he carries out his duties has already been felt by the majority of citizens. The main objective of his work is to promote the development and growth of the educational system in Galesburg while working along with the Board of Education. After finding out about his many duties, I was inter- ested to hear that he is active in civic projects 100. Talking to Mr. Wooley made me feel that his wisdom and ability to understand everyone around him are assets to his character which help him in his important W work. ' Having talked with Mr. Wooley, I became anxious to see the Board at work. It happened in the strangest way, too. One Monday night, I was just wandering around when I heard voices coming from a nearby room. Naturally my curiosity got the best of me, so I tiptoed up to the door and peeked into the room. There sat seven men and one woman who I immediately recognized as School District 205's Board of Education. I've heard so much about the Board and its constant efforts in trying to gain benefits for Galesburg schools, but I've never seen its members in action before. Since they were working so hard on the schools, problems, budget, and improvements, I silently made my exit, leaving them undisturbed.
