Baaacfafg' ' The school year 1950-51 has been a busy year for the Board of Education in View of Work toward further progress in the development of the central school system. Changes of residence, death of one member and job changes have created several personnel changes in the Board during the year. The Board lost one of its rnost esteemed members upon the death of Wallace R. Newcomb, who gave freely of his time, knowledge and wisdom in aid- ing the central school district. Pine Valley Central is a better school today because of the effort and interest put forth by Mr. Newcomb. He was a friend of education. What has been accomplished is hard to put down in a limited space. lt may be sum- med up that effort has been made to improve standards of education and the facilities helping provide that education. Buildings have been put in better repair: more transportation is provided: two teachers have been added to the faculty: a broader adult education pro- gram is operating: a new salary schedule for teachers has been put in operation: additional sports activity by way of football has been added: more teaching and operational equip- ment has been purchased: the safety conditions of the building have been studied and corrections started: seven committees of lay persons for a new building program have been organized and are working on plans for a new building. These are but a few of the nu- merous activities of the board. Our hats are off to these men who give so freely of their time that our school be a better school and we, the students, have more opportunities. E51

1 ll Carl W. Stamp Supervising Principal Carl I. Stowell Richard L. Earle Elementary Principal Assistant Principal To the Class of 1951, As this goes to press another chapter of your lives is being completed. A new chapter starts with commencement. How long and how good that book ot uncompleted chapters is depends on your choice of what you do next. No educated person doubts the value of edu- cation. What you have now Cannot be taken away from you and what education you get from now on will serve to make your lite even richer. You can be proud of your accomplish- ments during the years of your school days. I trust each of you avail yourselves of further opportunities ot education. Some ot you may go to work, others to the armed forces and others on to further training. Whatever you do keep your aims high and then keep on striving to achieve those aims. You, too, will be taking on new duties as adult citizens. Your right to vote, to participate in community functions, to be ot service to your community through your time, talents and money, are basic privileges and duties for you in a democracy like ours. Let's all give an extra push to our school, community and country by carrying out those duties. Come back and visit Pine Valley Central often. Best wishes to all. t fm
