SCHOOL BOARD. Seated: Howard D. McEachen, Roy E. Welch, Richard V. Garrett. Standing: Mel Flowers, Kenneth P. Rankin, Charles A. Long. The five-man court handed down its ruling, and a new policy went into force at Shawnee-Mission. The legal tribunal, S-M's Board of Education, consisted of Messrs. Melvin Flowers, Roy Welch, Richard Garrett, Kenneth Rankin, and Charles Long. lf a legal problem concerning the district arose, or if the six schools in the area needed new equipment, this group gave the final go-ahead on such questions. These five men, chosen for four-year terms, were the only elected officials of the district. Issues arising from year to year included the pay- ment of faculty salaries and the sale of district bonds. ln addition, the board members devoted much time to the estab- lishment of special classes for improvement of reading, for handicapped pupils, and for particularly gifted students. The biggest problems of the court dealt with handling the in- creased enrollment of the area. Special attention was given to the construction of the new high school, as well as to the employment of new teachers to meet the growth of the student body. Working with its administrative official, Dr. McEachen, the board approved the division of the enrollment between the two schools, S-M North and East. The court awaited the next school term and the many varied cases the six schools would present to its members for decisions. five pilots form steering committee Dr. McEachen, with an eye to the future, surveys Shawnee-Mission East. v 18 li

As Director of Curriculum of the entire Shawnee-Mission school district, Herbert Bruning was rarely seen any one place for long. Analyzing and studying new text books and workbooks seemed to be a never-ending task to him, however, this was not his only job. He also kept an up-to-date record of the academic preparation of the school's staff members, and worked with teachers in the continuous revision -of classroom curriculum. Responsible for all matters pertaining to attendance, clubs, and discipline was Vice-Principal Carl lson. His iob included keeping activity period running smoothly. Directing and supervising the activity programs, Mr. Ison still found time in his busy schedule to help be- wildered students with their problems. The ever-growing administration received a new member in Guy Barnes, Ad- ministrative Assistant. While certainly not new to Shawnee- s Mr. Barnes' freshman year at the new post. He supervised S-M's expanded transportation pro- gram which included revising bus schedules and routes, rams, and maintaining accurate in- Mission, this wa directing safety prog surance records. Coping with these overwhelming tasks was a full-time iob for S-M's corps of administrators.
