SdwoL (BocuuL Mrs. Haffner, performs her duties as secretary to Mr. Weaver very efficiently, but still has time to lend a helping hand where it is needed. Her sincere friendliness and cordial smile have endeared her to the hearts of us all. She is known for her loyalty to the school and the entire student body. The class of ’56 thanks her for all she has contributed to make our years at Sandy so pleasant. Everyone should certainly thank the Board of Directors for their efforts in making the Sandy Township School District one of which we can all be proud. They have always kept the welfare of the students foremost in their decisions. Adrian is the only one room school left in the township. In an effort to make this school more modern, lavatories and an automatic gas furnace were installed. The many improvements and additions to the library at the Wilson Building have benefited the grade school students immensely. At the Oklahoma School, the stage in the auditorium was raised. Stage curtains, valances, and complete stage equipment were also purchased. These improvements will make the production of future programs and assemblies more successful. To beautify the High School and the new elementary school many varieties of shrubbery and small trees were planted. The seven competent men on our School Board are: President, Reuben Leafgren; Vice President, James Yoas; Secretary, Blaine Gent; Other Members, Howard Hess, Sylvester Kitchen, James Mauk, and a new member, Wesley Read. 4
