MELVIN OLENE Principal Without their help this school year would have been a much more tedious job. The administration had many problems to face this year, since it was the first year after the parting of the Enumclaw-Buckley district, but with clear thinking they proved that they were well able to run the schools with ease and assurance. We all owe them a vote of thanks. H. N. PHILLIPS Superintendent The school board for the school year of 1953-54. consisting of Arthur Klanke. William Schwab. Walter Schodde. Art Weston. Clarence Caviezel. and the superin- tendent and principal. H. N. Phillips and Melvin Olene, respectively, worked together constantly to make the year successful.
