This year, we welcomed to our school two new assistant principals, Mr. Marshall and Mr. Williams. All four of these men are active in our school. Each hour as we change our classes, we see them in the halls . . . greeting us, speaking with us, letting us get to know them, and letting them get to know us. When the new assistant principals were asked what they thought of Plaza, all answers were very positive. It is a good school with good students. Our students are cooperative and easy to get to know, stated Mr. Williams. Mr. Marshall commented, I really like Plaza. I try to make it a school of which all students could be proud. All administrators are sports fans. As a matter of fact, Mr. Marshall is a former boxer. Dr. Troutman is one ofthe most enthusiastic supporters of Plaza athletics. Principal Gilliam and Mr. Williams are also seen at the school's athletic events. Our administrators are doing a fine job of making Plaza a better place for education and are certainly striving for improvement. Seated-Mr. William D. Gilliam, Principal.

Mr. William Gilliam, a former principal of Bayside Junior, is in his third year in his reign as principal of Plaza Junior High. It is Mr. Gilliam's task to provide students with the basic skills, concepts, and experiences to en- sure success in senior high school and future life as well as to foster the art of making intelligent choices in an ever changing society. Mr. Gilliam certainly adds his crowning touch to Plaza people. I2 Administrators Dr. E. E. Brickell Superintendent of Schools Mr. William D. Gilliam Principal

The F.I.A.C. is a selected group of faculty members who explore the curriculum for new ideas in teaching. The S.I.A.C. is made up of students from all grades. They meet with the ad- ministrators to explore cer- tain school activities and situations. This year the Right to Read program was of great importance. The team leaders are faculty members that rep- resent each department of the school. They meet with administrators to keep communications open throughout the school. After all, everyone needs help now and then. I4 Advisory Committees 63 Teamleaders: fFirst rowy S. DuRoss, E. Davis, Mr. W. Gilliam, Dr. Troutman, N. Reed, D. Jones. fSecond rowy Mr. Marshall, V.
