Headmaster's Iob And r. Foote The Greenhill Board of Trustees has appointed Phillip Foote as the new headmaster of Greenhill School. Mr. Foote believes that the headmaster has the position of leader in the school community, and that on the headmaster rests the responsibility C subject to the approval of the Board of Trusteesj for the functions of the school community. He also asserts, however, that the decision-making should be dispersed as much as is possible among capable persons in the Greenhill family. There are many talented individuals at Greenhill. Aside from the students and their families, there are the faculty and the members of the administration. Mr. Foote thinks that the faculty should humanize education and make it possible for students to correlate what they have learned in class with experiences outside the classroom. He agrees with Ralph Waldo Emerson that the things taught in schools and colleges are not an education, but the means of educationf' I tx This page: upper right, Phillip Foote, headmaster.

ii ... get is - -F I -fu. e 71 ' M f we in Academic Dean: Dr. Iim Hendrix The 1976-77 administration was an interesting one. Some of the old administrative jobs changed in nature, one new position in the administration was that of academic dean. This position has become necessary due to the growth of the school over the past ten years: the job of maintaining academic excellence has become too large to be handled effectively unless it is centralized. To Dr. Hendrix, the academic dean, a program that is academically excellent is one that has continuity and is integrated. By continuity, Dr. Hendrix means that the courses of each grade should build on the material offered in the courses of the grades below. By integrated, he means that the interrelationships between the different aspects of culture should be emphasized, as is done in the middle school art classes, which explore art techniques deriving from cultures being studied in the childrenls history classes.
