Flffgw '34 Eugene Theiss Member Mgt 35 Marvin Carl President Promoting the administrative policies of William Chrisman and the other schools of the Independence School System is the major task ofthe Board of Education. Six civic-minded men and women and their secretary, Katie Chastain, compose this board. Their careful consideration of all problems confronting our school has aided our young people in achieving a better training for future citizenship. ,lust as a skyscraper depends on its foundation of cement and steel for its support, the students of William Chrisman are dependent upon the untiring service of the Board of Education for support. Because of the close harmony between the students and the members of the Board, it is natural that the latter group should be- come a contributing factor to the soul of William Chrisman. With- out this contribution the soul of William Chrisman would lack a certain quality necessary for successful functioning. The Board has done an excellent job of planning for the schools of the city and furthering the Chrisman tradition of good citizenship. 6

Using the theme Our Youth Prepare for Adult Responsibili- ties, the Parent-Teacher Association has proved successful in fol- lowing its tradition of promoting the welfare of the children and vouth of Independence during the past year. This has been accom- plished for the most part by its endeavor to bring the home and the school into closer relationshipg to secure adequate laws for the care and protection of children and youthg and to Create between educa- tors and the general public a unity that will procure the greatest advantages of education. William Chrisman's soul-the students, faculty, parents, Board of Education-is the silent partner of the Parent-Teacher Association in accomplishing these aims. The Parent-Teacher Association of William Chrisman is compar- able to the framework of a skyscraper. As the skyscraper's frame- work supplies inner support for its walls, the inward sustaining power supplied by the integrity and co-operation of teachers and parents is the nucleus around which the basic ideals of education of this school are built. zwefzf- 47206521 JZYXGUIJIQGII 1' 5' 'li M C 'g 5'-gfricd, Mrs. James Gardner Wir Ted Horn Nlrs Nlclbournc MTS' Hm1f'5 H' ri ra' H L ff J h F. iztnwn Mrs r L Hulst uf.
