STARRING Mrs. Pecola Maxwell Our 1966-67 verbal Oscar is hereby presented to Mrs. Pecola Maxwell. The factors which dictate this choice are both numerous and imposing. They include a motivating example of high scholarship, effectively adapted to and diffused throughout her classroom contacts with her students. They include a breadth and sincerity of interests which are felt in many areas of the total school program. They include painstaking diligence and a genuine interest in the problems and promise of each student. They include a warm and stimulating personality in which humor, friendliness, and firmness of purpose are happily blended. For five and a half years she has exhibited these qualities and we sincerely wish for her and our alma mater a continuation of this fortunate association. 6

We are old. For forty-four years Second Ward High School has served the Charlotte com¬ munity as a combination junior and senior high school. We are young. When school doors opened for the 1966-67 school year, Second Ward opened its doors as a brand new senior high school. With cameras in hand, we have recorded many aspects of the experiences which accom¬ panied our new status. Share with us the ’’Cel¬ luloid Adventures of a New Senior High School.

EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR THE PRINCIPAL ' S MESSAGE We began the 1966-67 school year as a full-fledged senior high school (grades 10-12), facing many challenges. As the year progresses we are fortunately able to conclude that, for the most part, these challenges are being met. This year has brought changes in our student body with many new faces and I salute these students for accepting their responsibilities as Second Ward Tigers. I likewise salute the returning students for the friendliness and hospitality extended to the new students. Looking toward the future, I see the prospects of many good things for Second Ward. Among these are a new plant, new programs, increased student body, new activities—and we may eve n have a new name. I extend congratulations to the staff of the 1967 TIGER for the diligent work which was done to produce this yearbook. Specifically, I want to commend Miss Queen Green for her unrelenting dedication to the job as adviser to the staff. She worked long and hard to make this book a source of pride and joy to all of us who love Second Ward. As you examine these pages, I am sure you will conclude that Second Ward is a great school with a dedicated faculty and a wonderful student body. 7
