I. Irving Mournighan Assistant Principal J. Irving Mournighan, in his position as vice-principal of Warwick Veterans Memorial High School, is constantly en- deavoring to promote and perfect the various activities and tasks assigned to him. Now completing his 20th year in the Warwick school system, Mr. Mournighan has previously taught in the Aldrich junior-Senior High School, where he served as hockey coach and athletic director. His present duties are many and varied, besides assisting Mr. Scott in the tasks necessary to make our school outstanding, Mr. Mournighan maintains discipline and has charge of student attendance. His optimistic and challenging outlook is well expressed when he says: We are the keepers of a sacred place. Our graduates and students are living images of those for whom it was dedicated. We shall strive to honor the trust placed in us and are determined that the Warwick Veterans Memorial High School will be second to none. Harold F. S cot! Principal Since his graduation from the University of Rhode Island in 1929, Harold F. Scott has been affiliated with the Warwick school system. Because of his desire to do administrative work, Mr. Scott wanted to learn about the various phases of teaching, consequently, he gained experience in several subject areas, including business and history. He assumed the role of principal with the opening of Aldrich High School five years later. Named principal of Warwick Veterans Memorial High School early in 1954, Mr. Scott began working strenuously to perfect the goal he had won. Having coached baseball and football in previous years, Mr. Scott felt qualified to cope with the problems faced by the Secondary School Principals' Athletic Committee, and for three of his eleven-year mem- bership, he has served as the chairman of the committee. Mr. Scott has received recognition from the New England Associa- tion of Colleges and Secondary Schoolsg he was elected first Vice-Presi- dent in 1957. Also consuming much of his time are the New England Association of Colleges and Secondary School Principals and the Na- tional Secondary School Principals. Membership in such organizations gives Mr. Scott a deeper insight into the problems and responsibilities encountered by school principals. 10 H,
