A Tribute to Superintendent Harry E. Rumpel For twenty years the people of Richfield, Minnesota, have appreciated the numerous accomplishments and sendees of the Superintendent of Schools, Harry E. Rumpel. Now, as he is about to step down from this post, we wish to dedicate this yearbook to him. Mr. Rumpel’s successful life can, in part, be attributed to his humanitarian spirit. He is a champion of the human approach to all problems, great or small. To him everyone is a human being always deserving the utmost consideration. As a result his office door is constantly open to anyone wishing to pass through. As an avid follower of all athletics, he has aided Richfield in developing a philosophy of competition which has made us great. It was this keen athletic interest that helped begin his career, for his first position involved coaching in Wisconsin. From Wisconsin he moved to White Bear, Minnesota, where he taught in his own field of chemistry. In 1930 Mr. Rumpel made another move, this time to Mahtomedi where he held his first superintendency. The year 1944 marks the begin-ning of his very successful career here in Richfield. When he first came here, there existed only two schools. East and Woodlake. Due to a growing population, Mr. Rumpel foresaw the need for more schools. Therefore, under his supervision Richfield’s school program began growing. The elementary schools of Central, Lincoln Hills. Sheridan, Elliot, and Portland appeared shortly. Richfield built its own high school in 1954, soon followed by a new wing; the two junior highs, East and West; and Central, another elementary school. Today he stands by the construction of the concluding link in this system, the new expansion of Richfield’s high school. It is basically through Mr. Rumpel’s devoted efforts that the people of Richfield now have one of the finest school systems in the nation. Now as this strong leader, Superintendent Harry Rumpel. is about to retire after twenty years of faithful service, we, the students of Richfield High School, proudly dedicate the 1964 Aurean to him. 12
