Faculty The 1973-74 school year was one that Weston-McEwen faculty will never forget. The administration changed and the trial mer- ger went into effect. Teachers that had never worked together before joined to work on the same faculty. New teachers, new students, new adminis- trations, and a new school all combined to create a new atmosphere. It’s a wonder anything was accomplished. Somehow all of these new and different people meshed together to create an exciting and suc- cessful school year. The teachers worked hard and deserve a quiet year next year. The won’t get it, but thanks for 1973-74.

School Board 29R 19R Back row L.-R. Vern King, Samuel Giger, Chuck Williamson, Gene Baker. Front Row L.-R. Charles McCullough, William Zerba, Robert Harman, Bob Bannister, Edward Meinhart. Not pictured - Jim Gentry, Shirley Newbold, Dale Phillips. The citizens of school districts 19R and 29R are fortunate to have board members such as they have. It was not an easy decision to try the trial merger, and the board mem- bers are to be commended for their willingness to take a chance that the students attended Weston-McEwen High School. Many of these board members are graduates of either Weston or McEwen High School, and were sen- timentally attached to their old schools. They put sentimentality be- hind them and did what they felt best for the students. We, the students of the new Weston- McEwen High School, would like to thank these men and women. 10
