wmmrrf rl 1 ' T A Time to Teach ... A Time to Learn Students are involved in learning, in collecting facts, in weighing information, in listening to others. Students are also involved in teaching, in transmitting that which they themselves so recently learned, in presenting a new side of an old picture. Teachers are involved in teaching, in dispel- ling information, in presenting students with a different point of view, in helping students learn to judge for them- selves Teachers are also involved in learning, in listening to the opinions of those younger and perhaps more idealistic than themselves, in realizing that age is not necessarily knowledge, in examining their own opinions in the light of their students ' views.

mm m ii nMUm Men Provide the Foundation itfton As SHS students present their proposed dress code, Principal Charles E. Haase listens in- tently at the parent-faculty-student dress code meeting in the library. Superior High School— a complex system designed to provide the best possible education for the 280 stu- dents who daily fill its halls. It ' s a complicated system and it takes a number of men to keep it running smoothly. Eight men provide the foun- dation for the functioning of the sys- tem, and these men were asked what they thought high school should pro- vide for the students. Mr. Charles E. Haase, principal, whose role is that of a chief adminis- trator, provides general supervision of the teachers and pupils and controls the organization of the curriculum and the over-all school program. Mr. Haase feels that high school should provide a general education in all basic academic fields, as well as a degree of readiness to enter the vocational field of one ' s choice. Mr. Dale D. Mooberry, superinten- dent, implements the policies of the Board of Education and serves in a liaison capacity between the board and the students, other administrators, faculty, and the community. Students should get two things out of their four years in high school, according to Mr. Mooberry. First and foremost, they should get the best education possible according to their educational opportunities and their own applica- tion to their studies; and secondly, they should get some preparation, both educationally and socially, for the world they will enter upon graduation. The Superior Board of Education, whose purpose is to provide an edu- cation suitable for the community, also acts as an advisory council to assist the teachers, pupils and parents, and acts on the financial matters of the school. Mr. Leslie Alexander, a member of the board, also believes that students leaving high school should have prepared themselves for either higher education or a place in society. Engaged in one of his daily jobs, Mr. Haase fills out admit slips. Superintendent Dale D. Mooberry laughs at a comment made by one of the School Board mem- bers, just before the monthly board meeting gets underway. 11
