School board members: Robert McDonald, chairman; Archie Lane. Ken Likens, Alfred Peile. and Joe Shorb. As the deputy district clerk, Mrs. Georgia Brady takes notes and handles financial affairs for the school board. Budgets, new school buildings, maintenance, teachers' salaries, levies, and other problems confronting the school system were matters of business handled by the school board during the year. At the beginning of the year the problem of the dress code was brought to the school board by the students, and the dress code was abolished. As the school's and superintendent's secretary, Mrs. Pauline Mintonye prepares federal programs and district budgets, instructs and supervises all office girls and student body treasurers, records and does all the general office work required to keep our school running smoothly. 13

Faces Reduced Enrollment After beginning a year with reduced enrollment, our administration, under the direction of Mr. Bernard Adamson, Superintendent- Principal, was faced with important questions that directly reflected the future well being of the community and the school. Would the student population decline continue? Would the economy of the community improve? Would the anxieties of parents be satisfactorily answered? With optimism these problems were faced, and every effort was made to keep a good school system functioning in Powers. Mr. Nighingale, as the student body counselor, helped the students with problems and helped them decide what they would do after high school. 12 Bernard Adamson Peter Nightingale
