New Principal Joins Palmer High School Palmer High School started its sec- ond hundred years with a new principal: Mr. Lee Higgins, who became principal in mid-August of 1978. This is not Mr. Higgins' first exper- ience as teacher and administrator at Palmer. He taught at the school for five years, beginning in 1953, and was assis- tant principal during the 1972-73 school year. For ten years he worked in Central Administration as Instructional Supervisor and Curriculum Specialist for the District. Mr. Higgins said he feels a unique loyalty toward Palmer because of his many years' association with the school. The students and faculty are extreme- ly friendly here, stated Mr. Higgins. You don't walk very far without some- one saying hello. Because of his late appointment to the job, Mr. Higgins has not set any new goals this year. He is going to carry out the goals set by the previous admin- istration and plans to learn the school's program well before making any changes. Mr. Higgins states that he thoroughly enjoys Palmer and has a very positive attitude about being prin- cipal here. ABOVE: Mr. Lee Higgins, Principal BELOW: Ms. Marjory Truax, Assistant Principal.
