A New School, A Busy Year, And Many Fond Memories The EAGLE staff of 1967-68 has strived to make this year's annual a symbol of the advancement our school has made in appear- ance and function. We have tried to capture some of these changes in pictures. The most noticeable and eagerly awaited change was the completion of our new school building. We must remember that it is not the building, but the people, that makes a school a place to enjoy and to be proud of. The new facilities are looked upon with pride. The new gym alone has helped spark the enthusiasm of both the players and spectators, and the colorful class- rooms add to the pleasant surroundings. This change created a first for Southern Boone Schools because the junior high and senior high students now occupy separate buildings. It would be fitting at this time to express our thanks to the citizens of the Ashland community for making our new school building a reality. With the expansion of our facilities it has also made it pos - sible to cooperate with the university i n accepting three student teachers this year, creating another first in the history of our school Our foreword would not be complete without a few special words of gratitude. The EAGLE staff, therefore, would like to thank Mrs. Hunt for the wonderful job she did as our proofreader, to Miss Lenzini for her un- ending patience and tireless effort as year- book sponsor; and on behalf of the student body we extend our appreciation to Mr. and Mrs. Gilbert Martin and Elvy Smith for driving students on trips and to out of town games. The EAGLE staff hopes that each of you will treasure the memories in this book and will look at this period of life as one of your most pleasant. 6

Dedication As our seniors of '68 entered high school, Mrs. Sharon Bullard too entered the halls of Southern Boone County R-l as an instructor of his- tory. Both students and teacher began their new careers in the citizenship classroom, and after five years will bring that association to a close by completing Missouri History. This progression, however, doesn't begin to present the entire picture. Even though her efforts may hold special meaning for our graduating seniors, Mrs. Bullard has made numerous contributions to our school and its entire student body. She has served each year as a class sponsor and has spent countless hours working with students in ac- tivities outside the ordinary routine of the classroom. She has been an active member of P. T. A. and served as vice president in 1967 and president in 1968 of the Community Teacher's Association. Along with a special note of ap- preciation from the graduating sen- iors of '68, the EAGLE staff would like to gratefully dedicate this annual to Mrs. Sharon Bullard. As president of the Community Teacher's Association, Mrs. Bullard fulfills her duties at a regular business meeting. Mrs. Bullard takes on more responsibilities in helping Mr. Milton Bosch through the daily trials of being a student teacher.
