Administration The task of being a Superintendent is indeed a busy one. The school superintendent is responsible to the Versailles Board of Education for planning, operating, and managing a school program that will provide the maximum educational opportunities for the boys and girls living in the Versailles School District. The framework and the details of the program must be within the broad procedures established by the Board of Education. His responsibilities include procurement and selection of certified and classified personnel, preparation of the budget, maintenance of facilities and equipment, preparation of necessary records and reports, and provisions for the best possible student curriculum. In discharging his many duties, the superintendent consults with and is assisted by the school staff, among them, the high school principal.

The job of the guidance counselors is a full-time one. Their work continues throughout the summer months, scheduling students for school in the fall. When school resumes, the guidance counselors are again busy with their duties, among them, assisting seniors with college plans, recommending scholarships, counseling individual students, providing career information, placing students in available jobs, arranging parent conferences and various testing programs, as well as arranging for summer school when school again closes. Our guidance counselors, Mrs. Laura Paulus and Mr. Mike Gant work long and hard hours arranging for students the best possible scheduling and career counseling. Mrs. Laura Paulus Mr. Conrad Minnich A library is a place which contains a collection of books or other literary material for reference or study. Since a library is so essential to the student, it must be well-run and the librarian must be efficient. V.H.S. is fortunate to have both. Mr. Conrad Minnich and his staff of assistants are always ready to help a student in finding the information he needs. 16
