L. Lester, Principal Principal's Message Dear Class of 1969, Whither goest thou? This is a question that I am sure each of you has considered over the years with varying degree of seriousness.'' Come June 12, 1969, however, none of you will be able to afford the luxury of idle and float- ing thoughts about this question, for the security and comfort afforded by the walls of Dear Lee M, Waid will no longer obtain. The indolent among you may contend that 'whatever will be, will be''-- that the courses which our lives will take are wholly dependent upon forces outside of us. I contend otherwise. And, the lives of scores of men and wo- men are testimony to this contention. Suppose that Abraham Lincoln had been content to just drift with the tide of circumstances which influenced his early life. Suppose that he had accepted as fact that he was meant to be poor and illiterate; the entire course of our country's history would have been drastically different. And suppose that Booker T. Washington had accepted slavery as his intended lot. There would be no Tuskegee Institute with its thousands of graduates mak- ing significant contributions to communities all over the world. And suppose that Elizabeth Koontz had accepted her blackness and her femaleness as being permanent barriers against any appreciable rise in Ameri- can education's white, male world; she would not have become the first black woman to head the 1,000,000-member National Educational Association. History is replete with such men and women who have dared to set their Sights upstream against the tide of adversity. I challenge you then, to order your own lives according to purposes and aspirations which you, and you alone determine, and pursue these purposes and aspirations with a vengeance. And, should yournames not land upon the list of the great, they will assuredly land high on the list of the self-fulfilled.

Waid on August 31, 1964. We joyously began the year with a message from our principal, the late Mr. C. L. Atkins. Then we were assigned to different homerooms, because at this time there were approximately 100 eighth graders. Our teachers were Mrs. Dorothy Phelps--8A, Mrs. Rebecca Wood--8B, and Miss Carol Snipe--8C. As the year began, even though we were frightened and confused for a few weeks, we finally adjusted and began to join the school activities, James Kirby was fortunate enough to be a member of our band, which marched in the Christmas Parade that year. A few of our girls were included in the choir, which was rated Superior at the Choir Festival in Danville. Mary Menefee and several other members of our class were in a Math-Science Conference held at Bedford. That year, Virginia Muse and Gloria Holland were in the annual Miss Lee M. Waid Contest. Jessie Tyree, Benny Hopkins, and Norman Poindexter were members of the FFA. Our 8th grade class was soon looked upon as a part of the big, happy family at LMW. After we had adjusted and grown accustomed to our daily routine of classes to achieve our goal for that year, the year suddenly ended. However, after all the excitement of the 8th grade, we were looking forward to an even better year as Freshmen. Because of integration of the schools and the death of our former principal, we began our Freshman year without some classmates and with a new principal, Mr. S. L. Lester. Our class was still large enough to stay di- vided among the same teachers as in the previous year; and, therefore, we needed no adjustment to high school life. We knew how to begin that year. This was the first year clubs were organized in the school and many of us joined a few, such as Buford Wade, James Cobbs, and John Calloway who joined the Agriculture Club. Betty Taylor was in the Newspaper Club; and Betty Trent, Brenda Preston, Ruth Lee, and Dorothy Law were class representatives in the Reading and Business Clubs. We were represented well in other groups too. In band we had Betty and Ruth Smith, in the Dramatics Club we had Virginia Dunn and Mary Law, and Sammy O'Neal and Standford Nance were on our basketball team. Along with joining activities and a lot of hard work which we managed to get done, our Freshman year was very prosperous to look back on when we became Sophomores. The tenth grade year opened with excitement and disappointment. Again more of our class transferred to other schools and some dropped out. Now the class was small and was divided between Mrs. Phelps and Mrs. Wood. Even though many were gone, those of us still at LMW were prepared to carry on the work of our class. Our SCA representatives were Betty Tyree and James Kirby. In the Miss Lee M. Waid contest we came in second, and we were very proud. Many of us returned to old clubs and some joined new ones. Norman Poin- dexter, Lawrence Harper, James Craighead, and Thurman Patterson returned to the FFA. Faye Mackenhimer and George Wright were in the Dramatic Guild, and Janet Hancock and Louwanda Warren joined other class- mates in the band as majorettes. Our girls dominated the cheering squad to cheer the basketball team and the Sophomores on to victory. This made us look forward to our Junior year, We were all thrilled when we came back to Waid in the fall of 1967. This was to be our year. To carry on the position as leaders of our class we chose class officers as follows: James Kirby--President, Ruth Smith-- Vice President, Mary Law--Secretary, and Betty Tyree--Treasurer. After organization of the class, the students prepared to take part in the Miss Lee M. Waid contest. We were honored when our contestant, Louwanda Warren, won the title of Miss Lee M. Waid. We joined clubs as we had done in previous years. Some of us were officers in these clubs. Our class was overwhelmed when our boys hon- ored us with the Annual Class Basketball Tournament title by beating the Senior Class. As the year came to an end, it was our privilege as Juniors to honor the Seniors with the most beautiful Junior-Senior Prom ever to be presented at Waid. The theme of our prom was ''Three Coins in a Fountain. Then we said good-bye to the Seniors and a very productive year for the Junior Class. The past four years were filled with much joy and many hardships, but somehow we survived. Now we are a class of 34 students even though we were approximately 100 to begin with. Although we are few in number, we are like one happy family with Mrs, Dorothy Phelps who has diligently worked with us through thick and thin as our mother away from home. With her help and the help of others, we entered this final year of preparation for whatever we wish to be in the future. We elected leaders for our class and elected our SCA representatives, who are also president and vice presi- dent of the SCA, We are well represented in all of the clubs and organizations in the school. There are many problems facing us in this, our final year, but somehow we will continue to work hard and hope that it will end happy for all of us. And you may see for yourself whether this year ends happy for us as you watch us march down the aisle in June.

CHM The cafeteria plays a four-fold role in the educational program of the school. As a source of nourishing noon meals it helps to combat malnutrition and to maintain in the students health and vigor essential to the success of the teaching program; it is a center for the teaching of proper food selection and of good health habits, for the vo- cational training of some students, and for correlating classroom teaching with the in- terests and experiences of children which center around food; and it furnishes a means of interesting the community in the food service of the school and of giving some training in the nutritional needs of children through this interest. 42 y o 7 JEAN IORI Ess: TREN SIXTY-NINE A THUMBNAIL SKETCH Lee M. Waid School Make new friends, but keep old; Those are silver, these are gold. New-made friendships, like new wine, Age will mellow and refine. Friendships that have stood the test-time And change--are surely best; Brow may wrinkle, hair grow gray, Friendships never know decay. For mid old friends, tried and true, Once more we our youth renew. But old friends, also! May die, New friends, must their place supply. Cherish friendship in your breast, New is good, but old is best; Make new friends, but keep the old; Those are silver, these are gold. The 1969 Annual of Lee M. Waid School is routinely looking for a simple format from 1911 through 1969 which will reflect past events. Slightly more than a half century has passed since the present Lee M. Waid School had its beginning with a public school on High Street. Through the efforts of the Pigg River Baptist Association, The Franklin County School Board aided by Rosenwald Funds, and the WPA, our school progressed extensively. The first structure; namely, Rocky Mount School, was a two room frame building constructed by the school board. For fifty years this building served as classrooms for Franklin County students. Education was terminated at the end of the Seventh Grade until 1921, provided students passed the State Examination. After 1921 two additional years of training were added to the curriculum. The founders were: Lee M. Waid, Ben Beasley, Henry Smith, Zack Hopkins, Martha Brown and William T. Walker. The first teachers included W. F. Graspy, Sam Phelps, Della Dickerson and W. A. Bond. In 1915 a dormitory was built that accommodated teachers and students from Franklin and adjacent Counties. Because more courses were added to include summer study for teachers, and more space became available, the name was changed to Booker T. Washington Normal and Industrial Institute. Bus transportation was provided around 1929 when Mr. M. H. Hopkins and Mr. Willis Board purchased the first buses. Their salaries for operating the buses were paid by the school board. Around 1926, Rosenwald funds were made available for the construction of a four-room building which was renamed Franklin County Training School. The school board aided in erecting this building. Several years later, the Federal government, under the WPA, built the Agriculture Building which is currently in use. About 1948, the Franklin County School Board purchased the- remaining 23 acres of land from the Pigg River Baptist Association to build the first unit of the present school. Upon the completion of the second unit in 1959, the school was dedicated, The brick structure was completed in 1964 with the ad- dition of more classrooms: Atnw Realizing that 50 years is a short period of time for substantial progress in education, however, Lee M. Waid High School has had its beginning--all indications tell us it will have its ending. We've seen its growth from a two-room frame building to a thirty-three room brick structure; from elementary education to Senior high school education; from a faculty of two to a faculty of forty; from 100 students to 1,000 students; from private transportation to school buses; from outdoor lavatory to modern rest- rooms; and from pot-bellied stoves to central heat. To the Pigg River Baptist Association, to the Franklin County School Board, and to the interested citizens of Franklin County, we, the present generation, owe you our thanks. 'Make new friends, but keep the old; Those are silver, these are gold. 44 INTERESTING TIDBITS Lee Waid School Alumni Parents of 1969 Graduates: Willie Mae Ross Holland, Class of 1948 Sam Holland, Class of 1969 Adlee Meadows Dunn, Class of 1948 Jim Dunn, Class of 1947 Virginia Dunn, Class of 1969 Hannah Tyree Hopkins, Class of 1946 Benny Hopkins, Class of 1969 Approximately 900 students have graduated since 1923, The largest class to graduate (64) was in 1965.

He was firm in dealing with his subjects and de- manded neatness, Those who worked with Mr. Prillaman has great appreciation for his lesson in punctuality, and exactness. He served as Superintendent of Franklin County School from 1917 until 1927 except for time devoted to service in World War I. It was during his term in office that Franklin County first provided a High School Education for Negroes. Rufus A. Prillaman Dr. Harold W. Ramsey concluded 41 years of service to Franklin County Schools from 1927 to 1968. He was principal of Sontag Elementary School before being ap- pointed Superintendent of Schools.
