Attendance in class is necessary if one expects to obtain an education. But sometimes students are absent for legitimate reasons. When these students return to school they have to obtain an excused absence slip in the office. One of the many duties that Mrs. Webb performs during her active day is handling the school ' s financial affairs-- this entails endless money counting and extensive bookkeeping. Mr. Buck Massey, the assis¬ tant superintendent, obviously finds much satisfaction in his job as he shares the duties of Mr. Martin. During the past few years the federal government has provided many educational funds for Edge¬ combe Comity. Much of these funds are channeled through ESEA. This office is administered by Mr. Kelly Byrum, a former teacher at West Edgecombe. Administration The acting superintendent of Edgecombe County schools, Mr. C. B. Martin, has a difficult and responsible position but Mr. Martin has effec¬ tively served Edgecombe Comity during the past year. In his working day it is seldom that Mr. Lillcy finds a time of solitude in his office. However, we have captured one of these rare moments as he sat in deep contemplation pondering over the problems of modern education.
