Busy Administration Determines Policy Budget Attending to the financial, disciplinary, and mate- rial needs of the school is the chief function of the ad- ministration. To maintain an educational institution and to keep it running smoothly is no simple task. It requires the attention of an alert superintendent and principal along with an able staff. On top of the situation at Hamburg is Superintendent Neuzil and Principal Guess. Mr. Neuzil meets with the School Board to sort out the financial needs of the school and to establish school policy. Mr. Guess oversees all high school activities and handles most disciplinary problems. They are assisted by their secretaries Doro- thy Moody and Joanne Beam, respectively. The School Board represents the interests of the community in the formation of school policy and the bud- get. Each member represents a particular region of the school district and has a vote in decisions made by the board. LEFT: Mr. George F. Neuzil, superin- tendent. Mr. Glee Guess, principal. ..,f

In individual counseling sessions, Miss Tynar aided many students in career and college problems. Education Is Scho0l,s Primar Responsibilit From the outside the high school may seem to be a social gathering place for teenagers oralocker room for young athletes. Such is not the case. The school is a place of learning in every sense. No matter how active its clubs are or how many triumphs its athletes gain, a school has failed if it has not educated its stu- dents and prepared them for life. Although lessons may be learned by working with others in organizations and athletics, the majority of the lessons learned are taken from the classroom. Those most responsible for the academic growth of the students are the members of the faculty. Ded- icated to their jobs and having a common love for working with young people, teachers do their best to make their subjects interesting as they attempt to educate their students. By exposing his pupils to materials with which he himself is all too familiar, each teacher hopes his students take with them the finest education possible. Guidance and Librar Fill Student Needs Choosing a college or career is never easy for any high school student. Helping the student make the right choice is the job of the guidance counselor, Miss Tynar. She provided students with an extensive li- brary of career and college literature while counseling with them for a satisfactory decision. As outside reading is a favorite pastime of many students, Miss Hecker, school librarian, was always busy in the school library. Novels, newspapers, maga- zines, and biographies are provided by the library for student use. Although it is rapidly growing short on space, the school library has proveditselfauseful ser- vice for every student. Miss Hecker was school librarian and taught junior high English.
