As moat people of our community know, our teachers are organized into one administrative unit. The arrangement of our building and its curriculum both assist in uniting our faculty more closely, Several of our teachers serve on both sides of the building as the chart of our facility on the opposite page shows. We believe this system is helpful in bridging the gap between grades and high school, one oi the most serious problems in education. It also enables teachers to he of kreater service to the system as a whole. For the size of our school, our faculty is especially well-trained. High stand- ards are applied to both grade and high school teachers. Some time ago the board decided not to hire teachers without degrees in the future. Almost all our teachers now have degrees and two of them, Mr, Ewing and Mr. Yates, possess the Masters degree. Our principal, Mr. White, is on leave of absence this year to secure the same degree. Several of our high school teachers have completed one or two summers of work toward it, The Board encourages and assists our teachers to secure better qualilications for their work. Special duties in high school are distributed among our teachers in such a manner that no teacher is overburdened and every teacher may do work which she enjoys doing and to which she is suited by experience and training. Our adminis- tration feels this is the proper way to distribute such duties, and the faculty is also whole-heartedly in favor. The success of a school system oftentimes rests upon the cooperation fxiven by teachers to administrators and other teachers. lt is earnestly hoped by the major- ity of the faculty that the spirit of good will which was manifested so openly hy all our teachers during the construction of our new building may continue through- out the years to come.

STORY OF O R N .W SCHOOL cafeteria, and gymnasium. The manual classes moved into their new quarters in Novem- ber. The gymnasium was ded- - icated at Thanksgiving time V when we played our first game l with Greenville. The stage at that time was not completed, but the beautiful new curtains were in place at the time the band gave its concert early in the spring. The cafeteria was opened in January, but since then many improvements in equipment have been made. During the winter months the floors of classrooms and study halls received several coats of paint and were waxed. This served to eliminate much dust and noise. New equipment was purchased as fast as the Board could supply the funds. The science room on the high school side was litted out with new tables and lockers. The grade school science room received new chairs, The agriculture room acquired new filing cabi- nets. New chairs for the floor of the gymnasium arrived in time for the band contest and junior play. Shades to darken the auditorium were also in place for the band contest. While many things are still to be done in equipping the new school, the work of construction is completed. The building has not as yet been for- mally dedicated because the official approval of the government has not been made. Now that spring is here, we can hardly realize that the first year of occupancy is almost over. For us seniors it is to be our only year in our new quarters., but in this short time we have become much attached to our new home. As the drives in front of the building are laid, and the grading, sod- d i n g a n d seeding of the 1 a w n moves on to completio n , we begin to ,- . visualize the beauty of the 1 new High- ! land Public School as it must h a v e been seen by the eyes of the archi- tects. We re- m e m b e r words spok- en long ago of men who see visions and dream dreams.
