OUR CLASS AT WORK The publication of this yearbook has been one of our senior class projects. As such, the work was done by our 2roup rather than by a more limited staff. We first dis- cussed and decided upon the purposes which the book should serve. We agreed that it should: first, record in an in- teresting, attractive way the most exciting and worthwhile activities of the year so that students would find it of permanent interest; second, show in as lifelike way as possible something of what goes on in our school in the hope that it would indicate to parents and other interes- ted friends what we do in school; and third, challenge to the fullest our own capabilities in planning and carrying out a project which required creative effort and cooperat- ive working. We were assisted in our plans by our core teacher who gave us general supervision and by the secre- tarial and art teachers who made the specialized contri- butions without which we should not have been able to pub- lish the book.

OUR DIRECTOR DR. M.L.ORR Dre Me Le Orr, Head of the Education Department of Alabama College, is director of the High School and Elementary School. When we asked Dr. Orr what he considered to be the main purpose of the High School in our community, he said: The program of Montevallo High School attempts to provide an education to suit the needs of all of its students. Through electives and guidance programs it attempts to prepare those students who expect to attend college for college work and those students who do not expect to attend college for home, vocational, and civic life.
