Our potential capacities would never be developed were it not for capable leaders who awaken us to the New Frontiers of learning. This year with the addition of six new teachers the faculty has grown to twenty- nine members. The enlargement of the faculty enables Roxboro High to offer college algebra for the first time; solid geometry is combined with plane geometry, also. The old band room is being used as class¬ rooms, and two new classrooms are being built for English and science classes. French students are enjoying a new lab for improving their language orally and aurally. With better equipment our teachers can more readily prepare us for the future. 12
