B. degree, class of nineteen eight, came to Hamburg from Elmira Heights in the fall of nineteen -eighteen, after ten years of successful experience in school work. Mr. Park has also pursued graduate work at Teachers' College, Columbia University. ln the short time he has been here he has made many far-reaching and desirable changes in the Hamburg schools. Among them may be mentioned the following: Re-organization of the plan of promotion and grading so as to provide ior individual differences in capacity. Increased emphasis on school study, with provision for more time and supervision for study. The re-organization of the upper grades on the junior high school plan, with an enriched curriculum, departmental teaching, promotion by subject, and educational and vocational guidance. The installation of a wood-working department. The introduction of a plan of individual instruction in the grades. Mr. Park believes in the value of athletics as a force in the development of wholesome manhood and womanhood. His interest is an active one, and in the great autumn outdoor game of football, was a contributing factor in developing last fall the first successful team Hamburg has had in several years. Mr. Park aims to maintain and foster the splendid spirit and efficiency of the Hamburg schools, and, with loyal co-operation of students and teachers, to lead, energetically and progressively, in the educational developments in Hamburg in the near future, so that the children of Hamburg may be ever more effectively served. f ..g.. 1

Greeting Our class of nineteen twenty has ever been one full of life and activity. During the four years in high school, it has always been the first to break the routine of school life by starting something new. Now we have undertaken something which no other class of Hamburg High School has ever attempted. We humbly present this Senior Year Book. ln this enterprise we are in the same situation that Robert Burns was. We are without model. Nevertheless, while we have striven to make it as interesting and as attractive as possible, the chief aim of this book is to make it a record of the scholarship, athletics and other activities of our school. We hope that in the years to come it will bring back many happy memories of the past four years. With the best of wishes we present this Year Book. -7- PROEDERTY GF ,,,-, .,- V-I ,-, 3 - -.f-, i '1:'1 r HAMBURG HIb1,Lf.'-.-it,11L i.'-.C1L1 1
