Mr. Fary Foresees Outstanding Future A few years ago a high school in South Richmond was only a dream. In September 1960 this dream became a reality. A modern well equipped and well staffed build- ing second to none was ready for occupancy. Pupils from five different schools reported on opening day. George Wythe High School had been born and was beginning to grow. As we look back now, we wonder how we ac- complished as much as we did. This, our second year of operation, has been much smoother. Pupils and teachers have become adjusted to one school. Academic programs, extra curricular activity programs, and athletic programs are stabilizing. One can easily see that, with continued cooperation and hard work on the part of the students, teachers, and parents, George Wythe will soon take its place among the outstanding high schools of the country. Mr. Fary gives Diane Cox, president of the S.C.A., her oath of office as a part of his participation in student affairs. MR. OSCAR W. FARY JR., PRINCIPAL; B.A., M.S.Ed., University of Richmond. With his usual patience and understanding, Mr. ponders the activities of the coming school day. Administration and Departments 9

BI li obi til ir ioe te in Another busy morning begins as Mr. Fary gives Mrs. Crosby instructions for the day while Mrs. Mae Begley waits for her turn. Life for Faculty and Students “Office Traffic Only’ states an ominous notice taped to both entrances of the school office. For “traffic” is the only term for the stream of people flowing through the swinging doors. The articles on a desk indicate the varied activities. Faculty auto keys are waiting to be picked up by car wash employees. Staplers, pencils, and erasers lie in strategic positions for emergency use. Announcements are stacked on one corner to be read over the intercom. On Mr. Setien’s desk lie financial receipts, for through his hands pass all money matters. Data processing forms may be found on the desk of Mr. Schneider, who handles the year’s programming and student schedules. One finds the most interesting articles on Mrs. Helen Crosby's desk! Counting money is a daily routine. Anyone need a pencil or a note? Mrs. Sarah Brooks can handle all situations including countless calls. Administration and Departments I!
