LXLA . ..sw..........,- Mr. Hays' roots Assistants take on class discipline, The main office went through many changes. A new principal was added and the assistant principals shuffled. Mr, Tommy Hays, former Haltom Junior High principal, was named the new principal during the summer, taking the place of Mr. Leon G. Hagmann who was promoted to purchasing director at the administration building. One of Mr. Hays' first objectives was to elevate the school spirit. To do this he stressed a program of school unity, all for one and one for all. As the year came to a close, Mr. Hays said that school unity had partially succeeded I think the spirit was much higher than it has been. Other schools now know that Haltom High School will be competitive in all areas, Mr. Hays said. Mr. Hays, described his philosophy on school, I only require students to do three things - come to school, study a little, and Mrs. JoAnn Kelley, assistant principal in charge of seniors, makes tea for Public Schools Week breakfast.

With Haltom roots Mr. Hays was born in his parents house in Haltom City, and graduated in 1953, from what was then called Birdville High School. I love this school, I love the kids that go here. My parents graduated from this school, I graduated from this school and so did my children, Mr. Hays said. At gradua- tion he reminded seniors that he shared a common bond with them. Next year I plan to continue working on the building and making this school better and better, Mr. Hays said. According to Mr. Hays, the senior class, noting that they were a great class, had a big part in all of the improvements made on the school's image. lf we can do things for the kids that they can take pride in like the carpet and the fur- niture, the will have more pride in their school, Mr. Hays said.I FACULTY
