THE ADjVIJjNJSTXATOKS For He’s a Jolly Good Fellow is a song that readily describes our Assistant Principal, Ur. Gerdes. He is also an instructor of Problems in Democracy. He has no specific place of location but is generally found in the office. Ur. Burkhardt is the head man. He is always busy with his big and responsible job. As a man with many schools, he superintends all in Norfolk, and does his job in a superlative manner. Ho holds an A.E. and M.A. degree. The person who effectively manages the affairs of N. H, S., is our charming Principal, Ur. Skillstad. He lends a helping hand to all the students and teachers. Many have taken advantage of his assistance. Most of the students of Norfolk High School have little realization of the amount of work that is done by the members of the Board of Education of our school district. This group is in complete control of the entire school district and all of the ramifications and details waich are involved in the oporation of the school. The members sorvo without pay for their many strenuous efforts in bohalf of the school district. This body of men has jurisdiction over school district number two, which includes all tho schools of the city of Norfolk. Thoy elect the touchers, custodians, and secretaries for each tern and determine all business transactions and policies of the district. The Milestone staff of 1942 devotes this page to a recognition of the school board members and their work. Small, indeed, is the amount of credit which is given to tho board members and this book wishes to point out tho very real part this group plays in tho development of our school. Al-through thoy are seldom,if ever, seen by the student body, their presence is always felt. The members of the 1941-42 school board are: Frank Perry, President; L. H. Buckendorf, Vico-Prosidont; Janes Gillette; Bruce Honnir.g; Byron Hooper; and Dr. Walter Minor. Miss Lillian Steffon is secretary.
