Xdministrator F oresees Bright Future for Tomah High All of us: Students, faculty, and electors are looking for- ward to the anticipated opening of the doors of the new Senior High School which is in the process of construction. This school plays an important part in the total building program of the Tomah District. It is being built to alleviate crowded conditions in the present school. Through its con- struction, basic changes can take place in the re-organiza- tion of the elementary units by providing the present fa- cilities for a junior High School program. We know that the new school must house and serve the varied educational programs that young people will need to face the problems they will meet in the future. Not only must this building be adapted for today's students, it must be flexible and modern enough to meet the technological advances and changes thirty years hence. Your new school has five educational areas: the academic area with a large library, an art, homeniaking, and business education area, three physical education stations with ad- jacent locker and dressing rooms 3 a large modern kitchen with adequate lunch room spaceg a large auditorium ad- jacent to a suite of music rooms and an industrial arts area with three well-planned shops. In addition you will find an administrative suite including guidance and health service areas. Space does not permit one to tell specifically how this build- ing will enhance new opportunities for your fellow students. Changes due to modern technology are constantly changing our society and will continue to do so. Modern techniques, new educational offerings both in materials and methods of teaching must be developed and put into practice in this new school. It is necessary that this building be Hexible and large enough to meet the common needs of the total stu- dent body as well as to meet the special needs and interests of individual students. Every student must be challenged to reach his fullest capacity and it is hoped that this building will provide the work space necessary for students and teach- ers to do their best. Wfe want to congratulate the Hainot Staff and the Seniors of 1966 for their interest in this new building, especially when you know that you will not be attending this school. You have a right to be proud of the fact that you have attended the Tomah High School. Buildings alone do not guarantee an education for students to improve themselves. They only provide the opportunity for you to improve your- self through the help of your teachers, parents, and friends. Superintendent Curran HRA
