Mr. Myers Coordinates Departments To capable Principal Russell R. Myers falls the task of coordinating all the departments of Misha- waka High School into a well-functioning organ- ization. It is his responsibility to see that : these departments function so that each student, on emerging from high school, will have a well round- ed personality. An efficient high school system demands complex work and detailed planning, for example, a master schedule to prevent the conflict of classes. M.H.S. reflects the high standards that Mr. Myers holds for his school as shown by the unqualifiedly approved rating by the North Cen- tral Association of Schools. This same North Central Association launched a wide-spread survey called “Learn to Know Your Community.” Participating in the endeavor were the Parent Teachers Association, the social studies department, the faculty, and the Future Teachers of America. Interested in the type of people and the character of their occupations and interests, the committees sought to find out the apparent needs of the community. Questionaires were sent to graduates as well as to students who quit school to determine how the high school had served them best and least in terms of their after-school exper- ience. After the information is compiled by the committees, Mr. Myers and his faculty will have a vast amount of new and useful data. The results will be used to build a better program for the school. In preparation for his position as principal, Mr. Myers received his A.B. degree from Indiana Uni- versity and M.A. from the University of Chicago. Lynetra E. Witson Dean of Girls Frank W. CHAarpMANn Assistant Principal (7) RussELt R. Myers Principal Guidance and Discipline While Miss Lynetta Wilson, Dean of Girls, and Mr. Frank Chapman, Assistant Principal, came in contact with 1500 girls and boys throughout the school year, only a small percentage of these stud- ents entered their offices for disciplinary purposes. Instead, the two deans were more interested in eliminating the cause of the trouble before the fireworks occurred than in administering punish- ment. Students were quick to find a friend in Miss Wilson and Mr. Chapman. The degrees of Miss Wilson include A.B., Frank- lin College and M.A., University of Michigan while Mr. Chapman has an A.B., De Pauw Uni versity and A.M., Indiana University.
