Leaders, Teachers Share In All Plans DR. ISHMAEL HILL Assistant Superintendent For more than two years the Board of Education, the administration, the depart- mental and special co-ordinators and directors, and classroom teachers had worked hand-in-hand with each other and with the architects and builders to create the educational plant that opened its doors September 6, 1955, as Monterey High School. School board members—W. H. Evans, president; Ruel Martin; R. S. Wilkinson; T. 0. Murphy; M. M. Ewing, M.D.; James H. Whiteside; and Paul Pugh—agreed with Superintendent Williams that it would be desirable to begin classes in our new build- ing at the opening of the school year even though the plant was not completed. Much credit goes to Dr. Hill, Miss Lomax, and Mr. Bailey for leadership in planning our beautiful new school and in following through on its construction, in staffing a full and efficient faculty, and in pro- viding an enriched and up-to-date cur- riculum. Lubbock's second high school, with four grades in it, relieved crowded conditions in junior high schools and Tom S. Lub- bock High to the extent that half day schedules were averted. MISS DOROTHY LOMAX Director of Secondary Education MR. CARL BAILEY Assistant Director of Secondary Education
