Responsibility for providing a good education for the 24,712 school children attending the 40 schools comprising the Lincoln public schools system falls primarily upon the 7 members of the Board of Education elected to represent the community. Dr. Steven N. Watkins and his 3 assistant super- intendents represent the nerve center of the school system—the central administration. Working with the Board and the coordinators they prepare the budget, hire the faculties, guide curriculum develop- ments, purchase equipment, and maintain the plant. The 913 high school students enrolled at Lin- coln Northeast in 1960-61 are the responsibility of Principal Harland V. Taylor and his assistant prin- cipals, Mrs. Frances Watters and Glenn Fosnot. To Mr. Taylor, classroom instruction, and student and faculty morale are the most important elements in the school, and in keeping with this policy, admini- stration doors are always open at Northeast. Working closely with Student Council, whose sponsorship he retained when he became principal in 1957, keeps Mr. Taylor in touch with student attitudes and problems. Mrs. Watters and Mr. Fosnot handle regis- tration and discipline of any student who tempor- arily goes astray. The 467 girls are in Mrs. Watters' charge; the 446 boys are supervised by Mr. Fosnot, who is also director of guidance. Audience, adviser, and friend to students and faculty—Principal Harland V. Taylor. Did someone call me—As- sistant Principal Glen Fosnot.
