Park View High School - Leaves of Memory Yearbook (South Hill, VA)

Page 7 text:

The principal of Park View, like many people in authority, has a great deal of responsibility and a limited amount of time. Yet the most important thing the principal of Park View gives to his students is his time. ke hfe ttnE’ li ?ten to our criticisms, questions and ilsteas Wt )nly in his office but in the halls, in the ;hool grounds between classes or after Much of his time is taken up with actions that may seem trivial i and they are sometimes unappreciated. Added up, though, these actions show an involved person who cares about those around him. In the morning he takes the time to announce and praise the efforts of the various organizations of the school. He also recognizes and commends the achievements of the individual. He takes the time to greet a student in the halls and to learn a student’s name. He understands the occasional monotony of classes by giving five-minute breaks. He does not have to do these things; they are not required. Because he takes the time to be interested and to care, the yearbook staff dedicates Traces ’76 to Lewis F. Morris, Principal of Park View Senior High School. 3
