The Administration Establishes School Policies Our three schools-within-a-school allow for a close relationship be- tween faculty and students. How- ever, the work within the three halls must be planned and coordi- nated so they will function not only individually, but as a single high school. lt is the difficult job of the principal, Mr. Harold Secord, and his staff to plan and harmonize the school's long-range, short- range, and immediate plans. Mr. Secord is assisted by a cleri- cal staff composed of Mrs. Una White, Mrs. Cornelia Grant, and Miss Carol Cundiff. Keeping stu- dents' records, carrying out school business, and sending transcripts and recommendations to colleges and employers are only a few of their duties. These secretaries are aided by the following student of- fice assistants: J. Sydenstricker, N. Moss, S. McGarrell, B. Stanley, M: Moseley, B. Mason, and A. Ni- chols. Mr. Graybill, Director of Stu- dent Activities, arranges the time and place for all school functions and takes responsibility for all in- coming and outgoing money. He is considered the treasurer of Patrick Henry and is ex-officio business manager of all school projects. His student helpers are V. Burnett, A. Lynch, J. A. Fulton, J. Davis, S. Hood, R. Hancock, and C. Steele.

Mr. Pitzer, Dean ot McQuilken Hall, tackles some of his massive p The Three Units Are Headed By Deans Nearly all of a student's con- tacts with the administration are through the dean of his hall. And because students remain in the same hall throughout high school at Patrick Henry, they get to know their deans with a closeness that is desirable. Each of the deans is the head ot his hall, and carries out about the same administrative duties as a principal in a small school. Mr. Lewis Pitzer is dean of Mc- Quilken Hall, Mr. Donald Bartol, ot Parsons Hall, and Mr. Benjamin Taylor, of Persinger Hall. All three of these men have much experi- ence in the field of education- both as classroom teachers and school administrators. These deans run their halls as a team in friendly hall competition. Each dean gets to know the stu- dents in his hall very well and be- comes acquainted with the indivi- dual student's special problems and needs, which allows tor a close student-dean relationship. lO aper 1
