Pontiac Senior High School - Quiver Yearbook (Pontiac, MI)

Though change symbolizes American progress, superior leadership is one factor that remains constant. The Pontiac High School of tomorrow will owe a great share of its prominent place in the fore- front of education to the same quality of far-sightedness, sympathy, and human understanding that qualifies the school ' s faculty and administration for the title, Progressive Educators.

SCHOOL BOARD Coming from all walks of life, the men who com- prised our school board this year worked together with one common purpose in mind — to see that the youth of Pontiac are given all the advantages of modern education. Budgeting school finances for the year, hiring teachers, supervising the activities of the superin- tendent of schools and principals, and the pleasant task of declaring school holidays are some of the tasks that occupy these seven men all year around. Many of these now well known men were, once upon a time, students of Pontiac High. Mr. Lynch, for instance, one of the better known members of the board, probably keeps things going smoothly with this knowledge of constitutionality. Mr. Schimmel and Mr. Blackwood, also alumni of Pontiac High School, undoubtedly could interest students with stories of how things were run when their fingers were in the pie way back in the good old days. Although not a graduate of Pontiac High School, Dr. Mercer not only cures the medical ills of the school board but with the assistance of Mr. Cloonan, well-known pharmacist, president of the board, he does well by a good many Pontiac citizens. Mr. Spence might well be called our builder of modern buildings. The school board has welcomed his new ideas. Mr. Moon with his managing experience in one of our large office buildings lends his support and ability to the board ' s activities. H MOON L. H SCHIMMEL w ' r7 m A - -s M. J CLOOMAM H. L.
