Back-to-School Night is delicious! 18 awwMmWvw,1mm ff , ,... .-e. .. TL , AN IMPORTANT directional sign along the road of school activities was the Parent-Teacher Association. Its pur- pose of co-ordinating teachers and parents that they may co-operate in properly training the students was achieved many times in many schools over the nation. This year the. Shawnee-Mission P.T.A. strode toward its goal with the topic seeking Maturity as its well- organized and interesting road. One of the prominent stop signs along the way was the annual Back to School Night where, for one evening, bewildered parents took their teenagers' places in class. Another stop, new but popular, was Family Fun Night,1' which hit the top speed in enjoyment via picnic dinners and dancing. Adults became students as they joined the Parent Educa- tion Classes on the subject of Sound Minds, Sound Bodies, Sound Principles. A program presented by the teachers, I Know You From Your Child, produced red faces or proud smiles on many of those attending. With Mrs. Earl D. Ward behind the wheel, her twen- ty-six committee chairmen acting as a powerful engine, and the parents supplying the gas, the Parent-Teachers Association found no road blocks which could halt it.

O O 1 Faculty Association TEACHER with a problem? Not for very long. Boosted by the additional membership of the junior high faculties, the Shawnee-Mission District High School Teachers' Asso- ciation chalked up a splendid record of problem-solving. Affiliated with a state and national organization and under the direction of four fine officers, all the members worked for a single goal-the betterment and growth of teachers and their profession. Meeting once a month, the association, through committees, worked out their many and varied problems which included ones concerning in- surance, salary, welfare, and the naughty boy in the back row. However, the association didn't spend all of its time on problems. Only good fun was intended as, stepping out of their roles as teachers, the faculty enjoyed themselves at their spring dinner and other get-togethers. Yes, sin- cere interest by all in a specific goal and the enjoyment of many good times together made the teachers' association a fine organization and an asset to S-M. STUDENT TEACHERS.
