Principal Mr. Hutchinson, who came to Sunbury from Lewistown, Pa., in 1958, has done a commend- able job during his two years as principal of Sunbury High. The many problems facing a principal upon completion of a new building have been very capably solved by Mr. Hutchin- son. His numerous duties include supervising education in the classroom, scheduling classes, extra-curricular activities, and assemblies, maintaining discipline throughout the school, and taking care of the physical aspects of school life, as the ordering of supplies and the keeping of records. Along with these primary concerns, Mr. Hutchinson has done much to establish a favorable social attitude between the school and the community. M. Eugene Hutchinson, B.S., M.Ed.
