Mr. J. C. COOPER, M.A. Principal MR. J. D. WATSON. B.A. Our Vice-Principal of the ninth and twelfth grades was born in Beaverton, Ontario. He at- tended Burlington Central High School and sheepishly conceded that as a teenager he was sometimes mildly disciplined for trying to im- press his friends. In an honours history course at McMaster University, Mr. Watson graduated with an Honours B.A. He also spent one year at the Ontario College of Education. Mr. Wat- son ' s former positions are many and varied. He taught one year at Clinton District High School, then went to Delta as an English and History teacher, and coach of the football and basketball teams. When Westmount opened he went there as Head of Social Studies and History, and later was back again at Delta as Head of the History Department. Three years ago he was promoted to Vice-Principal of Delta ' s afternoon shift. Mr. Watson admits that there is a great change from the position of teacher to Vice- Principal. He feels a Vice-Principal can become involved in student pfoblems, and although he misses the classroom contact with students, he feels that individual contact supercedes this. In this position Mr. Watson consistently follows two criteria. He considers the rights of the student as an individual moderated by what is good for the school as a whole. Nancy Sax 12.6 MR. G. E. WILEY, B.A. Mr. Wiley was born and raised in Sudbury, Ontario. He attended the University of Toronto where he received a B.A. in Honours History. His first teaching assignment was in Deep River, Ontario. After seven years there, he came to Barton in Hamilton where he was Head of the History Department. In 1967, Mr. Wiley came to Westdale as Vice-Principal in charge of grades ten and eleven. Mr. Wiley says he likes his position as Vice- Principal because he has an opportunity to work more with students and less with a particular sxibject. Emmy Verdun 12.6
