Librarians The school library supplements and enriches every phase of edu- cation. Any type of book is available, whether it be for reference or for pleasure reading. To quote Leo Rosten, Here lies the treasures, the wisdom and the wonder of man's greatest adventures on earth. MRS. ROSE MC NEIL MRS. LILLIAN COONS N U rs e The school Nurse-Teacher is the connecting link between the school and the home. A child must be healthy to succeed at school. The S. N. T. works with the child, the parents and the teacher for optimum health of each school child. Each year a child receives a physical exam from the school physician. The nurse checks eyes, ears, heights and weights--any deviation from the normal is reported to the parents. One of the main objectives of the S. N. T. is to teach the meaning of positive health and how to obtain it. MRS. LYDIA BRADY Driver Education 0 Board of Cooperative Educational Services The Cooperative's Services provides certain educational services which the local districts are unable to provide themselves or which can be more adequately furnished through a larger organ- ization. The purpose of the course is not merely to teach the student to drive, but to teach him to drive safely. The course seeks to promote interest in one of the most pressing problems of our American Society --Traffic Safety. MR. LLOYD BROWN
