Our leader Much of the success of Shortridge High School is due to the capable leadership of our principal, Joel W. Hadley. Since his return to Short- ridge thirty-one years ago, as a teacher, he has been in close con- tact with the students, as junior and senior class adviser, as assistant principal, and as co-sponsor of the Junior Vaudeville. As principal, he has many respon- sibilities in keeping Shortridge a smooth - running, forward - looking high school. He is the coordinator of all school activities, and still maintains' his close relationship with the student body by attending Stu- dent Board and Senior Council meet- ings, school social activities, and sports events. Mr. Hadley believes that Shortridge can live up to its traditions of leader- ship in education only so long as the students strive to do better and better work. He constantly urges greater par- ticipation in school activities, and has Worked to broaden their scope and that of the curriculum. He feels a personal responsibility to help each pupil satisfy his school needs, and to guide him toward attaining his goals in life, Eight
