i':'c' ' s, . MR. T. W. CARPENTER Principal f' Mineral Wells High School ell Your Mineral Wells High School faculty witnessed many changes in school life this year. Due to a 3370 faculty turnover, several new teachers were welcomed and classes were brightened by their personalities and methods of teaching. On the other hand, it was good to see again those not-so-new teachers whose faces and mannerisms have become so closely related to M. W.H.S. that they are almost indespensible to the school. A new subject was introduced to our curriculum--commercial art.Its organ- izationwas the realization of a long-time dream of Mrs. Harris's and the wishes of many others interested in art. Undertaking another job, Mrs. Harris re- organized the Mineral Wells High School Chorus. Both additions were enthus- iastically received by the student body and became immediate successes. M. W. H. S. teachers again spearheaded extra-curricular activities. In addi- tion to their regular classroom duties, 22 teachers sponsored homerooms, con- sequently becorning class sponsors, and all acted as sponsors or one of more of the numerous clubs and other organizations in high school. These extra activities cause what is commonly called in the profession teacher load and are indeed drains on teacher's time. Heat, rain, wind, and a mild epidemic of Asian Flu occasionally caused short tempers a.nd frustrated sighs. The cartoon at the beginning of this article exem- plifies these feelings exactly. Nevertheless, M. W.H.S. teachers, true to form, somehow found time to make up the hardest tests, assign the longest themes, and be the strictest graders in the state -Qin the somewhat biased opinions of their students, at any ratel.
