Administration Aids Unders tanding Dr. Scott Street, Roosevelt principal, is intensely in- terested in research and its implications for education. Ever on the move, he brings theory and practice to his admin- istrative desk, and adheres to a progressive viewpoint. Mrs. Florence Crouch, counselor, helps each individual to assess his own potenti- alities. In administering tests and keeping records she keeps an open mind and ear to help the student plan his future. Mrs. Janet Huff, Roosevelt’ school secretary, has to face up to a long list of duties. She ad- justs readily to a heavy work load and smiles through it all. Mrs. Geraldine Kress, school nurse, has charge of the “health clinic” at Roosevelt. It is her duty to check the health of each re- turning absentee. This year she has been assisting in one of the school’s several research projects.
