Office administration maintains unity throughout SM schools Take 2,000 students, multiply that number times five and you have got Shawnee lVlission's future generation. All five high schools liked to view themselves as thriving, self-sufficient bodies, but in order to inject efficiency throughout the district, a central organizing body was necessary. The office administrators performed this essential coor- dinating function. Dr. Arzell Ball, superintendent, aided in helping to break away from the uniformity which was present in the past. All Shawnee Mission Schools now have unique aspects, apparent in the internal organs rather than the physical appearance of the schools. The Commons area is an example of the students ability to function successfully. It was a test that was observed not only by the students, but the community as well. Competition has had a tendency to provide a division rather than a unity. The central office attempted to maintain a bond among the schools, administration, and students. DR.
