Mr. Bondurant’s ninth year as headmaster of MBA. has proved to be a productive one in many ways. Mr. Bondurant has focused on having better relations with students and receiving more student input on important issues concerning MBA. Throughout the year, Mr. Bondurant invited Seniors to come and eat dinner at his house to discuss their opinions on all facets of life on the Hill. His talks on the subject of leadership formed an enlightening part of the assembly program. Finally, Mr. Bondurant has eagerly sought, and is beginning to attain, the desirable reputation that the school deserves, not only in the South, but also all across the country. Assistant Headmaster Michael Drake, in addition to his adminis- trative duties, has served in the past as the personal college counselor to every Junior and Senior for several years. With the addition of Mr. White to the faculty, Mr. Drake is able to spend more time as the Senior Class advisor. In addition to his adminis- trative responsibilities, Mr. Drake manages to teach a popular 1st period AP American History course. His great rapport with the students is well-suited to his duties. Six years ago Mr. Drake, as acting Headmaster, admitted this year’s Senior class into seventh grade, and since that time has taken the credit (and blame) for all that class’s actions. No doubt, this year’s Seniors will always remember their years at MBA as Mr. Drake’s class.’’ Most importantly, however, they will remember his undying devotion to the individual student and unending dedication to all facets of MBA. He is a graduate of the University of Virginia and of George Peabody College for teachers. Mr. Michael Drake
