At the head of Sandusky High, is our prin- cipal, Mr. Wallace C. Glenwright. His iob is that of directing school activities and promoting good student-teacher relationships, as well as commun- ity work. Mr. Glenwright has been in the San- dusky school system for the past twenty-five years. After graduating from Mount Union College in 1930, he became a teacher at the Sandusky Juni- or High School. Two years later, he accepted his first position at Sandusky High, that of science teacher, head basketball coach and assistant coach for the football and track teams. Some ears later he became head football and track Y coach, a position he held until he entered the Arm- ed Forces. After he served three years in the United States Navy, 1943 to 1946, he returned to Sandusky again, this time as assistant principal and athletic director. Then in 1948, Mr. Glen- wright accepted the position of principal of San- dusky High School. He has his Masters Degree from Ohio State University. Miss Geraldine Bouy, in addition to being Mr. Glenwright's secretary is also the supervisor of the principal's office. Miss Jane Smith ioined the staff last June as an assistant to Miss Bouy. As the enrollment of our school increases, the duties of this office become more complex. The dean's office is well known to Sandusky High students. From the orientation of the fresh- men to the graduation of the seniors, Mr. Clay Blancke and Miss Dorothy Rentsch are on hand to help the students with classroom and extra- curricular problems. In addition to his duties as dean of boys, Mr. Blancke acts as assistant principal, helping Mr. Glenwright with the administration of the school program. He also arranges the training of the 16mm. proiectionists, schedules classroom movies, aids students in finding employment, and handles student insurance. After graduation from Ohio State University, Mr. Blancke ioined the faculty of the junior high school and then moved to the high school. With time out for service in the United States Army, Mr. Blancke held his post as a teacher of mathematics until 1948 when he added the duties of dean of boys. In 1953 he was named assistant principal. Miss Rentsch was graduated from Western Reserve University. She came to the high school as a Spanish teacher, and held this position until named dean of girls upon the retirement of Miss Marie Reiff last June. Along with her work as the dean, she sponsors the Fram, the business staff of the Hi-Lifes, and the Future Nurses' Club. Principal Wallace C. GI Assistant Prin p I Clay Blancke

Superintendent of Sandusky Public Schools Curl .xdclminidfrafion As we look back over the 100 years since the first graduating class of four students left the Halls of lvy to seek their fortunes, we can see a school sys- tem that has been smoothly run in all aspects. We have seen the administra- tion posts change hands several times. For instance, the office of superintend- ent of schools in the past has been oc- cupied by Mr. M. F. Cowdery, Mr. H. B. Williams, Mr, James T. Begg, Mr. W. S. Edmund, Mr. Frank J. Prout, and Mr. Karl E. Whinnery but the same spirit still remains that was present in 1855, one of responsibility for each student, to see that he receives a well-rounded, practi- cal education, that is necessary for fu- ture American citizens. Heading the administration today L. Mac as superintendent of schools, is Mr. Carl L. Mackey. Mr. Mackey has been our superintendent for two years now, having received the position after Mr. Karl E. Whinnery resigned from the post in 1953. Upon graduation from Mar- ietta College in 1918, Mr. Mackey ac- cepted a coaching position in Sandusky and has been affiliated with the San- dusky school system since then, exclud- ing the period between 1924 and 1927, when he acted as principal of Oberlin High School. Then in 1927, he returned again to Sandusky, this time becoming principal of the Junior High School. There he remained for 21 years of ser- vice until he became assistant superin- tendent. Mr. Mackey has a Master's Degree from the University of Wyoming.
