'-liwl' THE HIGHI4ANDER C. P. BUCK During the past six years lVlr. Buck has given a large amount of time, thought and energy to the building of a real school in Highland Park. His idealism and activity is well reflected in the fine school system which Highland Park has at this time. Mr. Buck is a builder in the truest sense of the word and as the years pass we shall look back to the splendid work which he did in helping lay a solid foundation for the Highland Park Schools. The gratitude and good will of the faculty, students and patrons go with him as he withdraws from the Board of Di- rectors. LLOYD H. MOSSER Superintendent of Highland Park Schools Beloit College A. B., University of Kansas Washburn College University of Chicago Mr. Mosser came to Highland Park Schools three years ago from the Topeka High School.

THE HIGHLANDER Board of Education Much of the success of the school organization has been due to the Board of Directors. During the past year Highland Park has been very fortunate in the Board which conducted her schools. By putting their experience as business men into their Work as Directors they have made the school a business institu- tion. C. P. Buck completed his sixth year as Director: J. E. Griest his second year as Treasurer, and A. T. Cross his first year as Clerk. Board meetings were held regularly each month with additional meetings when special problems needed attention. In these meetings the work of the schools during the month was 'carefully reviewed, bills audited and the general policy of the school discussed with the superintendent. The policies of the school have at all times been out- lind by the Board of Directors. The superintendent and faculty were then held responsible for carrying the same into effect. The spirit of unity and good will which prevailed among members of the Board has meant much to the success of the school. On April 13, Mr. Buck completed his second term as Director and Mr. Ben H. Abels was elected to fill the place. , , , ..... Page Eight
