To cope with the problems which arise as the world about us changes, Royalton-Hartland Central School has introduced new concepts of education. Our curriculum is constantly re- cxamined and revised to meet student needs and interests. XfVe must be prepared not only for college life but also for industry. Core and vocational programs have been instituted for that purpose. The knowledge absorbed by our parents' generation is a mere foundation of the facts we must assimilate today. The scope of education has been augmented so the student must absorb twice the material in half the time. Realizing that our entire en- vironment has changed to challenge us with devising new outlooks towards life and new avenues of self-improvement, the staff has chosen CHANGING WORLD as the theme of the 1967 SCOPE. 3

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
