Administration Mr. Dowd and Mr. Blanchon. Sharon High's dedicated overseers, made great strides in building understanding between the administra- tion. faculty, and students. In this, they were aided by the new superintendent, Mr. Stanley Russell, who brought many progressive ideas to this system. The relaxation ofthe dress code, the suspension of senior final exams, and the formation of a faculty-student discussion group were all to their credit. In addition, they kept Sharon's record of academic excellence intact. No, a 200 on the SA T will not get you into Harvard.
