DR. WALTER S. BOAROMAN. SUPERINTENDENT ll eau, Olly. . . Carry on has been the theme of our Superintendent, Dr. Walter S. Boardman. The war effort has been supported whole- heartedly, but the heritage of a high school education has not thereby been denied the youth of Oceanside. War orders, State Department of Education mandates, and public desires have been so observed that the best interests of the student body might be maintained. In his spare time, Dr. Boardman acts as alternate Deputy Director of Civil ian Protection T'orOceanside,as amember of the Board of Directors of the South Nassau Communities Hospital, and as Chairman of Leadership Training of Nassau County Boy Scouts. He is also a member of the War Transportation Committee for Nassau County. CHARLES R. MOSBACK, PRINCIPAL ffucation .701 Wctoty, , The youth of today can and will con- tribute much to our final victory. How- ever, they must always be prepared for post-war services and their duties ofcit- izenship. Withthisthought inmind, our Mosback,drew principal, Mr. Charles R. up the blue prints for the school year. He increased the number of classes in vital subjects, introduced pre-induction courses, encouraged student acceleration, counsel led youth ofdraft age and provided a course in American Problems in accord- ance with State recommendations. He con- stantly expressed the opinion that the responsibility and obligation of youth under eighteen years of age, even in war times, is to take full advantage of its educational opportunities. ng. xg?

THOMAS C. FETHERSTON, President CHARLES H. GOLDIE ANDREW R. FRITZ -H 'full program. . . The major concern of our Board of Education...namely Thomas C. Fetherston,Charles H.Goldie,Andrew S. Southard, Andrew R. Fritz and William H. Syrett, has been the pro- vision ofafuli educational program to which the youth of thecommunity isentitled. Wartime conditions havemade this difficult at times but obstacles have been su rmount- ed. A typical example ofma- jor problems that have been faced is the conversion from fuel oil tocoal without the loss ofa singleday of school. Adjustments in faculty mem- bership due to calls to war service, is another. Changes in curriculum to meet community war-time needs have beenmade. At the same time all courses nec- essary for college entrance have been continued. Educ- ation in Oceanside has kept pace with tried and accepted goals. All the activities of the school have been followed with keen interest and sup- ported tothe ful lest extent. 3 ANDREW S. SOUTHARD WILLIAM H. SYRETT HENRY L- HOFFMAN,
