The Board of Education This group of men who serve as administrators in the Verona Schools are indirectly responsible for the student welfare, although their work is not from a professional but business standpoint. The present board was organized in December, IQ37, and meets once during each month to transact the ordinary business of such boards and discuss school problems. These men are closely identified with the past, as well as the present history of the school. Frank Hogan, john Young and Harry Pierce are not only patrons of the school but graduates of IQO5, l9l5, and l9l9 respectively, R. R.

Head Teachers ..... The Verona Schools include three buildings, an Elementary, junior High. and a Senior High building, The Elementary School, the oldest of these buildings was built in 1870 For several years, Miss josephine Hunter, the principal, has capably managed this building where there are 468 pupils enrolled and ll teachers employed. This little red school house brings back many pleasant memories to the residents of Verona. The presentjunior High building was built in l9l3, and until last year it was used to house the junior and Senior High Schools. It is now under the supervision of Miss Blanche Lindemuth and there are 2-ll pupils with ll teachers there. ln the junior High, the Home Economics Department was remodeled and enlarged this year when modern equipment was installed on the third floor. The Shop, which was transferred to this building also has had some improvements. We proudly watched our New Senior High building being constructed during year of l937, each student anticipating his return to a new building, new equip- ment and a new environment, There are now l89 pupils enrolled and 8 teachers in the Senior High building which was first used this year. Mr. Alfred Synder, the principal, has contributed much to the success of this school year. The successful working of these buildings is due to the careful planning on the part of Miss Hunter, Miss Lindemuth and Mr. Snyder. A large portion of their time and effort is spent in making each building as efficient as possible. ' a- T - 1938 PURP1 10
