Father . . . Not just a father but my father, loved because his words and his wisdom come from his heart. Teacher . . . The one for whom the word respect was coined, because his classroom could be de- scribed in no other way. Principal . . . With the wisdom to take the best from the past, the logic to incorporate it into the present, and the ability to improve it with the future.

He is a person who has a vital concern for youth and a modern outlook in a modern world. Though not required to do so, he is personally connected with everything under his supervision. When he learned that special classes were to be housed in his building, he took courses dealing with this type of student. He entered Atlantic Union College in 1942, and Washington Missionary College in 1943. After sewing two years in the Navy in the medical corps, he received his Bachelor of Science in Education at SUNY at Buffalo. He received his Masters Degree from Canisus in 1967. He is an extremely accomplished pianist and organist and has played many times in the high school auditorium, He also spent many years playing professionally with dance bands. In addition to his other activities, he is a devoted health enthusiast and still finds time to jog regularly. He taught sixth grade in Gasport for fourteen years, 1949-63, and he has been building principal since 1963. This brings his total years of service at Royalton-Hartland to an impressive twenty-two years. In recognition of your great devotion to your students and your work, and because of the respect shown you by your faculty and others, Press Club proudly dedicates the 1971 SCOPE to you, Mr. Frederick Gibbs. 8

Luther Fink, Mr. George White, Mr. Warren McKee They Serve Us Well Just as a nation must elect a leader, so must a school district choose leaders. These representatives form a working-unit that is called a Board of Education. This group meets twice a month to handle issues which confront educators today. The Board appoints new teachers and other school personnel, prepares the budget for the school year, and publishes the informative Newsletter, which is sent to every household in the school district. In addition to attending their own meetings, the members of the Board of Education have the opportunity to attend other education oriented meetings during the year. These include the annual New York State School Boards Association in Syracuse, the Erie-Niagara School Board Association, the Western New York Development Council, and state regional conferences. To this governing body we extend our sincere thanks for the many innovations they have introduced in the Royalton-Hartland school district. Barbara Orlando MR. CHARLES H. PORTER Supervising Principal
