ADMINISTRATION W Superintendent James M. Smith, B.A., M.A. V- Mr. Smith, in 1925 Our Superintendent Speaks . . . We are witnessing the dawning of a new era in history-the era of the atom. It can be an era of great advancement with untold blessings for mankind, or it can be an era of mass destruction. What it will be will depend largely upon the kind of education we give to the youth of our day. The primary purpose of education in our school is to train all pupils to be good citizens. 0120 Our children are our greatest national asset. What America will be tomorrow depends largely upon the type of training our young people receive today. It must be a training that recognizes the worth and dignity of the individualg it must be a training that is mentally, morally, spiritually, and physically soundg it must be an education that seeks the highest good for all. This is our task.
