BOARD OF EDUCATION The student body of the Sunbury Area High School is composed of pupils from four different school dis- tricts—Sunbury, Upper Augusta Township, Rockefeller Township, and the borough of Snydertown. The gov- erning body of this school system is known as the Sun- bury Area Schools Committee. Eleven persons make up the group. The city of Sunbury, being a third class district is represented by seven members—William Betz, Donald Treon, W. T. Abrams, Herbert J. Beck, E. L. Bergstresser, William A. Pope, and Miss Helen Schaffer. With the exception of Upper Augusta Town- ship which has two members, Lloyd Rohrbach and Claude Knoebel, Rockefeller Township and Snyder- town each send one member, Edwin A. Kistler and John O. Eister, respectively. A preliminary meeting is held prior to each main committee meeting. At this time all matters brought to the committee's attention are put up for discussion. However, no definite action is taken on any problem. As a result much time is saved at the regular meeting which falls on the third Tuesday of each month. In addition to the eleven members on the committee, J. Fred Jones, superintendent of schools, and Paul K. Rossiter, clerk to the secretary, are present at each meeting. Seated, Left to Right—Lloyd Rohrbach, vice-president; Miss Helen Schaffer, Edwin Kestler, Claude M. Knoebel, Donald Treon, secretary; V 1 III.. i Betz, president; Paul Rossiter, clerk.

J. FRED JONES, Superintendent of Sunbury Area Schools SUPERINTENDENT'S MESSAGE I am very happy to congratulate the Class of 1957 upon its graduation. It is hoped that the education you have received here is just the beginning of a cycle that you will not fail to complete. Those of us who have spent most of our lives in the education field have been seeking ways over the years to raise the levels of education to meet today's needs. Effort to improve requires action; no progress can be made if we remain still. There are many trends that we can see all about us which make for sound progress, but complete cooperation is needed. Many years ago I heard this statement, You can travel no faster than you are able to take the public along with you. There- fore, better education becomes a matter of selling, and we cannot establish an educational policy acceptable to the public unless all people are informed concerning the problems that face us because it is they who pay the bill. I hope that your association with your classmates, teachers, and principal has given you an outlook on life that will never dim but as the years pass and you become more mature will shine with great brilliance among those with whom you come in contact. The road ahead will not always be an easy one, but I do know that the education you have received in the Sunbury Area Schools will enable you to cope with many difficult situations that may confront you. Lots of good fortune to you, Class of 1957. J. FRED JONES, B.S., M.E. Pennsylvania State University ROMAYNE KILLIAN Secretary MILDRED EYSTER Secretary 13
