GALEN JOHNSON Superintendent - B. S. , M. Ed. University of Nebraska MRS. JUDY THOMPSON English - Librarian - Dramatics - B. A. E. Wayne State College All too often students are thinking in terms of the opportunities that their future holds for them, while they may tend to overlook the many opportunities that are presenting themselves right now. If the educational opportunities that are here now are not taken advantage of first, then perhaps there may be few, if any, opportunities that a student can look to the future for. It is by taking advantage of opportunities in education while they are at hand that we create and enhance opportunities for our future. What we make of ourselves depends to a great extent on what we make of all the opportunities that present themselves to us everyday, both now and in the future. An education counts so make it count for you. MR. GALEN JOHNSON Superintendent MR. LARRY SMITH Vocational Agriculture - B. S. University of Nebraska MR. GARRY RIGGS Science - B. S. Chadron State College MRS. MARION CLARK Home Economics - B. S. University of Nebraska LEADERSHIP MR. LARRY CALDWELL Music - B. S. Kearney State College MR. KENNETH SEDLACEK Social Studies - Coach - B. S. Kearney State College St. Edward, as schools run, is relatively small. Yet, it is able to offer the best of teachers and adequate facilities along with the advantage of the student not being lost in the crowd. An education is the greatest asset a person may possess. Each and every member of our free society should be given the right to attain an education. As a teacher and administrator I try to do my best to see that each pupil gets a fair and impartial opportunity to learn. MR. WILLIAM EIDAM MR. DAN KNIGHT Driver's Ed. - Coach - P. E. - B. S.
