LOUIS GILLMEISTER PRESENTING PLANS AND POLICIES The government of the Royalton-Hartland school system is the Board of Education. This Board is composed of seven elected members, whose job it is to draw up and present an annual budget and to decide what policies the school will follow. Some of the budget items which are discussed each year by the Board members are: money for new books, equipment for labs and other supplies, partial financing of the yearbook, and publication of the informational NEWS- LETTER. This year the Board has drawn up plans to be used for new additions to the elementary schools. These additions will make available sixteen new class- rooms in each school to accommodate the growth of population in the district. On behalf of the school, we would like to eiitend our thanks to the members of the Board of Education lor their excellent record through the years of service to the Royalton-Hartland Central School.

A kindergarten teacher's day begins with collecting money for lunch. Mrs. White checks Katherine Durdin's name off as paid. Every building, statue, or other evidence of our culture must have a solid foundation. Kindergarten, our first step in education, has been a solid pedestal for continued learning due to the kind efforts of Mrs. Fern White. She has taught the primary grades at Roy-Hart since she graduated from Buffalo State Teacher's College in 1928. Mrs. White later earned her B. S. degree at her Alma Mater. Her patience and warm personality have been a comfort to all of us. Aside from school work, Mrs. White has also benefited the community with her wide scope of activities. She has been president of the Middle- port Study Club and president of the Teacher's Associa- tion. Her interest in children is far-reaching. She has been a Cirl Scout leader, and superintendent of the primary division of the Methodist Sunday School. Mrs. White, we will miss you when you retire. Knowing that you have provided a solid foundation and have started so many of us in the right direction, we take pride in dedicating to you our 1967 edition of SCOPE. 5

OUR NEEDS ARE THEIR CONCERN As the wheels of progress keep turning at Roy-Hart, high standards of education are main- tained. The responsibilities are on the shoulders of our administrators: lVlr. Charles H. Porter, Supervising Principalg Mr. Edward H. Sanderson, High School Principalg Mrs. Jean Koenig, Mid- dleport Elementary Principalg and Mr. Frederick Gibbs, Casport Elementary Principal. Schools are confronted with the difficult task of preparing youngsters not only for the world around them, but for the world in the future. The school must recognize new developments and make appropriate changes in the program. Curriculum and subject matter have to be reexamined and updated to include new ideas and interpretations. The needs of different groups of children have to be met by an education which is purposely structured to release and develop their potential. All of these duties have been performed and individual needs have been met very conscientiously and capably by the Roy-Hart Administration. We the student body, through SCOPE, thank our administrators for a fine educational experience. Rebecca Glenn 7 MR. CHARLES H. PORTER Supervising Principal BUILDING PRINCIPALS MR.
