ADMINISTRATION

Page 10 text:

The teachers and administrators, in loco parentis, are probably one of the most impor- tant group of people in a student's life. By offering advice and guidance, they have helped in planning a future for all those seek- ing it. As they try to render assistance, as well as to set examples, they look for the best in every pupil whether it be in character or personality. Their help has been almost im- measurable. They encourage students to pur- sue a career suited for them. They try to help the student understand diFficult subiects and help him improve his grades. Although it is often not realized, the teachers put in a lot of hard work both during and after school. Their task as a teacher or an administrator is never ending. There are always questions to be an- swered, tests to be given, schedules to be made out, etc. Although there is much hard work, the teachers and administrators are re- warded by the friendship, respect, and admi- ration of the students. 6

AC H I EVES ITS GOALS The school board achieved one of its goals this year when the new grade school was com- pleted. In addition, new academic programs have been introduced into our school program. Plans for the accreditation of our high school are being handled by Mr. Harper. Future expan- sion ofthe high school building will be necessary to meet the growing student body. This will pose another problem 'For the school board. The lack of available teachers and our need for so many make it diFFicult to secure the best. Nevertheless, the school board makes certain our teachers are capable, well-trained individuals. They work diligently to meet the constant demands of our expanding community. We would like to ex- press our sincere thanks to the men who are pro- viding the executive action which is vital to a good educational system. Members of the board, from left to right, are: Mr. Gilbert, Mr. Yost, Mr. Robel, Mr. McQuaide, Mr. Wingard, Mr. Hoffman, and Mr. Blough. EVERYTHING A-OKAY Mr. Victor R. Zack has many clerical duties. The two ele- mentary schools at Rachel Hill and also the Senior High build- ing provide multitudes of records which must be kept in order. Since his oFfice is located at the Church Grove building, Mr. Zack is seldom seen at the Senior High. However, it is real- ized that his responsibilities are important in the managing of the Richland Township School District.
