Our Teachers Work With tudents 9 Knowledge of their subject matter and an understanding of human nature make North- east teachers capable of handling almost any situation which might arise during an average school day. Even with a very busy teaching schedule, instructors take time out to help a student who is behind in his work or who needs additional training in order to go to college. 10 0 Besides regular class duties, the faculty plays an important part in school social life. Many teachers sponsor clubs and societiesg some at- tend student dances as chaperonesg and others give much of their own free time helping with school publications, dramatics, and musical presentations.

Mr. C. W. Davis Vice Principal 9 Before Mr. Davis became our vice-principal, he taught science at Northeast. This helped acquaint him with the problems of students and teachers. In a school as large as Northeast, many situations arise, the handling of which re- quires intelligence, tact, and a sense of humor, all of which he possesses to a high degree. 9 On April 7, 1955, he was ap- pointed principal of Northeast, taking over his new duties imme- diately. Teachers and students feel confident that Northeast High will move along smoothly and ef- Hciently under his competent lead- ership. f 1 - - . f '. - - I .fe ., I !'. 4' ' ' If . 1 r.
