farewell Address MR. CLAYTON BROWN Superintendent of Schools Mr. Clayton H. Brown was born on December 10, 1896 at York, New York. He attended the York Grade School and the Greigsville High School where he graduated in 1916. After graduating from high school, he went to Carnegie Tech, Geneva College, University of Rochester where he received an A.B. in 1923, then he went on to Cornell University where he then received his M.A. in Education. His teaching career was enhanced by teaching positions at Lindenhurst, Long Island and West H.S. Rochester where he taught science in both schools. Later he became principal of the Findlay Lake, Greenwood, Arkport, and Hadley-Luzerne schools. He was elected District Superintendent in 1936 and assumed duties on August 1, 1936 succeeding Dr. Abram Hollister. At that time he had 37 schools in his Supervisory District. Now the number has been reduced to three, those are Corinth, Galway, and Edinburg. He has participated in organization of the Hadley-Luzerne Central School, Corinth Central School, Galway Central School, and the Saratoga Springs enlarged City School District. Mr. Brown, we appreciate everything you have done in the development of our school and this is a token of our appreciation and gratitude. THANK YOU!
