DR. FRITZ HESS District Principal Solving School Problems As district principal, Dr. Fritz Hess is concerned with the execution of' an efficient school system. Insuring the welfare of the student body and the establishment of a good academic reputation are his major ob- jectives. Dr. Hess made possible the program with Ohio University, which brought dele- gates from countries such as Nigeria and Vietnam to LCS. Serving as an important link between the community and the school is the School Board. The members discuss problems per- taining to such areas as the budget, cur- riculum, and student transportation. To gain a better understanding of the school's cur- riculum, Mr. Farris, Mr. Van Slyke, Dr. Hess, and faculty members attended several in- formal meetings at which the board members became acquainted with the faculty and familiarized themselves with the schoolis curriculum. .3 3 BOARD OF EDUCATION Seated: Mrs. M.

To the Student Body: Education is a life long process. The years spent here are then but a beginning. The welfare of our society, and indirectly the societies of other parts of the world, depend upon what you do in the future. Democracy works best in a free society. To reap the maximum benefits in a democratic society its citizenry must be well-educated and directly involved. It is important that you learn how to learn. It is important that you learn how to use wisely those things which you have learned. It is im- portant that you realize that one of your goals is to provide a better way of life for you and your fellow man. Whether you like it or not you cannot escape the fact that you are your brotheris keeper? You cannot escape the fact that despite the odds you must find a path to peace for all mankind. You cannot escape the fact that the most important things in life are the simple things and not those of material wealth or material comfort. I would commend to you one quotation from Emerson: The true test of civilization is, not the census, nor the size of cities, nor the crops-no, but the kind of man the country turns out.', Paul H. Farris ,wx 'NJ W-rzaf' MR. ROBERT VanSLYKE Assistant Principal MR. PAUL H. FARRIS High School Principal Who delivers the thought for the day when Mr. Farris is absent? Who is the chief discipli- narian in our school? Far more importantly. who does much to keep the school operating smoothly? Naturally, Mr. Van Slyke, our assist- ant principal. Mr. Van Slyke. whether solving an administrative problem or meting out disci- pline, is kept busy all day. Officially, he is assistant principal. However. to the student body, he is Mr. Van. a friend.
