SUPERVISORY STAFF Mrs. Sally Sheild Visiting Teacher Mrs. Sheild is our link between the home and the school. It is her job to visit the homes and talk with the parents. Many problems of the students are thus solved by discussion. Working with the parents in this way, she is often able to reach the root of a pupil’s poor attendance and erase it. Working with the Guidance Department has also been one of her duties. She has helped many students with their questions of the future. As if this were not enough, she does much welfare work in Warwick County. Mrs. Sheild has proven to be a good teacher, Mr. Thomas L. Martin and Mrs. Sally Sheild guide and friend. i Mr. Thomas L. Martin Director of Instruction in Warwick County Mr. Martin helps both the students and faculty of Warwick High. He makes the teachers’ problems his problems, for it is his job to help the teachers in their capacity of teaching by observing the classes and advising courses of activity. This being only one of his many duties in directing the instruction in Warwick County, Mr. Martin is always on the move. THE SCHOOL BOARD The School Board of Warwick County was reorganized five years ago. Since then it has done one of the most important jobs in the community. It is one requiring foresight and knowledge, for the success of tomorrow rests largely on the shoulders of the students of today. The programs and activities of the school are greatly determined and influenced by the School Board. To them we owe our greatly expanded school and it is through them that th e students of Warwick are receiv- ing a better education than ever before.

PRINCIPALS A student wants his schedule changed, another wants permission to leave school, and still another has been dispatched by his teacher, after a verbal dispute, to a higher authority. Where are these stu- dents? Waiting to see Mr. Cox, of course. Well- meaning parents who cannot seem to understand their offspring’s low grades, must have a private consulta- tion with Mr. Cox. Meanwhile, some forgetful student either loses the key to his locker or forgets his combina- tion. Who can open it? Mr. Davis is always called upon. These day-by-day duties are but a small percent of the many duties and problems which are presented in the running of a large school such as Warwick High School. Mr. Cox, our principal, and Mr. Davis, our assistant principal, have done their duties well — and beyond the call of duty. Through their untiring efforts, they have won the friendship, admiration and respect of students and faculty alike. P T A EXECUTIVE BOARD The P. T. A. Executive Board has done much to help bring a closer relation between the homes of our community and the school itself. By preparing interesting programs, it has carried forward much work for the P. T. A. This year many prominent speakers came before the as- sociation to speak on the various phases of our church, home and school life. Dr. Paul Buckles, of the First Presbyterian Church in Newport News, and Judge Herbert Smith, judge of the Corporation Court of Newport News, were two of the outstanding local speakers. With the combined efforts of other community associations they acquired J. Ogden Nash, noted educator, author and poet; Judge Odessa Bailey, formerly of the Roanoke Juvenile Court, and Dean Rosecrantz, of Columbia University. They also helped sponsor “College Night” for students in the ninth through the twelfth grades. Mr. Clarence A. Davis, Assistant Principal and Mr. George IV.
