TIME SAVING IDEA GIVES STUDENTS SCHEDULE EARLY Principal Price Harlan dictates to Mrs. Ruth Gwinn, secretary, 'a message to IHS parents, while Mr. Chick find their schedules already prepared for them. This was accom- Holden, We Principal, 9085 Over assembly Plans- When students came to school this year, they were surprised to plished by many, many long hours on the parts of Mr. VV. P. Harlan, Mrs. Ruth Gwinn, Mrs. Nita Clark, Mr. Chick Holden, and Mrs. Mildred Tomerson. They spent many hot days arranging and rearranging schedules to fit the desired wishes of the student with the facilities of IHS. This idea originated in IHS by Principal Harlan. He started the ball rolling in I i is .M I the spring of i957 when he i I Vi presented blank schedules W to every student in the iun- 'ya ior and sophomore classes of IHS and the freshmen of b o t h Bowie and Crockett sf iunior highs. He then col- lected them and started the long hard job of arranging and rearranging th e s e X schedules to fit in with the amount of classes offered in each subiect. This idea was a success and will be continued the coming years. G. LrsQcssNQN Schedule changes drew many lHS'ers to the office of Mrs, Nita Clark, IHS counselor. Talking with 'O Mrs. Clark are sophomores Virginia Nelson and Gail Singleton.
