Oiiice oi the Principal Year after year the principal's office is con- cerned With the development and regulation of all school life. Every year the administrators foster a new interest in the welfare of students at all times. They are concerned about social and scholastic adjustments in school, at home, or uptown. This is an extremely difficult aim because Indiana l-ligh is a fairly large progres- sive school of twelve hundred students. ,vue The guiding principles of the administra- tion office have been responsible for making our school more unified. The principal, his assistants, and a faculty of professional teach- ers have developed a curriculum, a guidance program, and a calendar of school activities which are designed to make students grow in mind, body, spirit, and personality. The effective school plan is responsible for the enviable record that Indiana High graduates have made in many schools. Graduates have won many scholarships and scholastic honors.

High school students have a greater desire to work efficiently when they know that their school has a tradition ot turning out informed, productive, and worthwhile citizens. lt is a challenge to strive to uphold this tradition. The administration urges pupils to develop good citizenship qualities through active par- ticipation in the student body organization. Homeroom and school otlicers lead students to make decisions and carry out their own affairs in a democratic manner. Teachers offer con- structive criticism. Every year the administration plans sev- eral cultural assemblies at which professional v artists present programs. Programs ot this kind broaden the education ot students. Thus indiana High is not only a good school, but it is one of the best of accredited schools. Below are several scenes portraying lite in the school.
