Dedica tio n To have spent thirty-one years in one school system is an achievement in itself. To have served as teacher, principal, and superintendent in that same school is an even greater achieve- ment. It is natural then that the students of Mount Vernon High School feel that the standing of the school is due in part to the time, effort, and administrative ability of Superintendent John D. Geiger in making this school one of the best in Ohio. Mr. Geiger came to Mount Vernon High School in 1922 as a physics teacher. The next year he taught chemistry and general science, and in 1924 he became principal of the high school, a position he held until 1941 when he was made superintendent of city schools. Since he has been in Mount Vernon, Mr. Geiger has also been active in various local organizations. He was president of the Chamber of Commerce in 1937. That year the Chamber of Commerce was instrumental in bringing the Shellmar Corporation to Mount Vernon. He has also served as president of the Ohio Principals' Association. He is a deacon in the Congregational Church and is moderator of this church at the present time. j.D., as he is often called, is a member of the Masonic Lodge, American Legion, Kiwanis, and board of the local Y.M.C.A. After retiring Mr. Geiger plans to travel and visit his brother who is principal of Mc- Kinley High School in Honolulu. When travel begins to bore him, he will probably return to his present hobby of raising beauti- ful flowers. As a token of our admiration and gratitude for the aid that he has given to the students and faculty, the FORUM staff is proud to dedicate the 1953 book to Iohn David Geiger Page Ten
