Achieves Long-Range Program Besides serving as super- intendent of the Nazareth Borough Schools since 1937, Mr. Marcks has been chief administrative and super- visory officer of the joint school since the six-district jointure of 1950. At the end of this school year Mr. Marcks will have completed forty-seven years in the Nazareth Public Schools as a teacher, prin- cipal, and superintendent; and the Nazareth Schools owe much to the wisdom, foresight, and efforts of this educator. While Superintendent Marcks reads a report, his secretary, Mrs. Margaret Sheklelski, looks on. Moving into the new F. A. Marcks Building created new problems for Dr. Lee Graver, high school prin- cipal. In addition to his regular duties of preparing student and teacher sched- ules and supervising in- struction and the numerous extracurricular activities, he attended to the practical problems of adapting the various facilities of the new building. He was respon- sible for checking the numerous details that need- ed completing about the building. Dr. Lee Graver, principal, goes over a report with Mrs. Elaine Doyle, his secretary. 3

After acquiring a building site, plans were formulated, approved, bonds issued, and ground was broken on February 6, 1952. Approximately two years and eight months later, on October 3, 1955, the partially completed new high school was opened. The following April 8, 1956, the new F. A. Marcks Building was dedicated. To the Joint Committee, the School Board, and the superintendent much credit is due for the foresight, time, and cooperative effort used in planning and erecting a modern building for the improvement of the educational facilities of the students of the area school population.
