MISS E. M. JACKSON MR. W. A. WIELAND Vice Principal Vice Principal Vice Principals Sweet and understanding, Miss Eleanor Jack- son, dean of girls, lends a sympathetic ear to all those who go to her for consultation. Her soft, gentle voice has soothed many a troubled young girl, for in her own sincere way, Miss Jackson has helped the girls of George Wash- ington with all their problems and difficulties. At the opening of the school. Miss Jackson, who was formerly a Latin and English teacher at Galileo High School, first came here in that capaci- ty. When Miss Edith Pence, the first girls' vice principal, was promoted to the position of the di- rector of curriculum at the beginning of this term, Miss Jackson took over her work. As the vice principal she has been instrumental in the arrangements of programs and was the sponsor of the Girls' Service Society. Another of George Washington's organizations in which Miss Jackson took particular interest was the S.P.Q.R., or Latin Club. In conjunction with Miss Catherine Newport, Miss Jackson arranged and sponsored the newly inaugurated senior advisory board, captains for which she chose from the Girls' Service Society. Working toward the goal of having George Washington the highest standing school in the city is the dean of boys, Mr. W. A. Wieland. He would like to see students leave George Wash- ington as w'ell trained American youths. Mr. Wieland is a strong believer in student self government. He has a plan w'hereby students will run every activity that pertains to the student body except class room discipline. Among the many duties of the boys' vice prin- cipal is the running of the locker system and helping to find student employment. Mr. Wieland also helped with the programming of students. Tickets other than those sold by the salesmanship classes are handled by Mr. Wieland in conjunction with Mr. Donald Atherton. Sponsor of the Executive Committee at Mission before coming to Washington, Mr. Wieland for- mulated the constitution for the United Students of George Washington High School. Besides teaching social studies, Mr. Wieland was the coach of the soccer team at Mission for eleven years and head of the Sea Scouts for nine years. Mr. Wieland was also the school auditor while at Mission High School. Page Nine
