Superintendent s Yjeiia i It has been 25 years since I received my appoint- ment to the challenging position as principal of the Springville Junior and Senior High Schools. There were 777 students and 23 faculty mem- bers in the two schools. All assembly programs and many dances were held in the auditorium. This same auditorium and halls housed the an- nual April Art Exhibit and the Permanent Art Collection. The girls gym was used for all phys ical education classes and competitive basketball games. Homes, gardens, and barns occupied the space where the art building and gym now stand. In recent years the new junior high has been erected, and a definite program of remodeling of the high school is in progress. The two schools today accommodate more than 1250 students. The greatest challenge in education today for parents, teachers, students, and community is to make the quality of education in terms of stud- ents needs, comparable as far as possible with our building and material advancement. Is such analogy impractical and theoretical? If not. let us face realistically the many complex educa- tional problems before us. May the graduation class of 1960 assume the responsibilities of adult life in such a manner as to assure their parents and the community that education is and will continue as Amer- ica’s Magic.” — Superintendent Brockbank Wallace W. Brockbank Superintendent A deep gratitude of thanks goes to Mr. Brockbank as he retires this year. Left to right: Leo A. Crandall Floyd Harmer, president Carl A. Patten, vice pres. Dr. William H.

Paul K. Walker Principal Principal’, M iiafyt As students and teachers we can look back and view our mistakes and achievements. We can see the fundamental things that have been so important in our lives during ibis year. Among the lessons we have learned are the following: It is hard to keep from slipping back. Constant improvement is necessary for progress. I raining must be streamlined. W'liat one gives comes back again. Let us ask ourselves these important questions. What about to- morrow? What does the future hold for all of us? Are we pre- pared to meet the problems of life? Have we learned this important lesson: that character is a personal thing and that each individual has to meet and solve his or her own problems? Have we discovered that progress is gained by individual effort! If we have learned these things, we are better prepared to meet the future problems of life. It is my hope the Springville High School has made a definite contribution to the lives of all the students and teachers who have been with us during this school year. — Principal Walker Lola B. Weight Clerk
