Dr. Rolland H. Upton, Superintendent of Schools Through faster means of communication and travel. distances have been so shortened that it takes less time to cross the continent than it used to take to go from Smithfield fOlympiaj to New Market f'lillIIlM'2ilC1'D. This means our community has expanded and is now the world. X'Vith this world shrinking, comes increased responsibilities with accompanying need for more skills, understanding and knowledges. The offerings in our schools must reflect the broad interest of our students, their parents, and the com- munity. YVe must teach of our heritage and our demo- cratic beliefs. Y'Ve must teach substance and more. The taxpayers, who support our schools, have shown from the time of XVilliam XVinlock Miller to the present that they are interested in a quality, comprehensive education, and that they are willing to pay for it. They have known and do know that a good education is fundamental to all citizens in a democracy. 63.4. M., ASSISTANT SUPERINTENDENTS pic- tured above at right are: W. I. Matters, Harold M. Potts.

ADVISING High schools always belong to the future. This is true in any year because of the youth and outlook of the students. It is especially true in Olympia in l959. Not only are we in the process of planning a new and modern building to house the program of instruction, but that program itself is subject to change as never before. Most important of all, perhaps, is a changing concept of the responsibility of American youth toward its nation and its world. Olympia's school system will accept the challenge of the future by adapting itself to the changes in the world about it. High school students must accept the challenge too. This will probably mean that students must invest more of their time, more of their effort, more of tlzenzselves in the future. The school system and the students should make these efforts gladly. The stakes have never been higher! ff? . if Page Seven
