at 5.,,,. y 1.4 F oreword-Chrisman salutes learning Look to this school year, 1965-1966, as a year of advancement. ln its brief course lies thc bliss of action, glory and growth. To honor the school system's one hundredth anniversary, Chrisman salutes learning. After a century of growth the lndependence school district has 16 elementary schools, two schools of special education, two junior high schools and two senior high schools. Approxi- mately 570 administrators and teachers were employed this year by the hoard of education to teach the 14,033 students enrolled. lndependenct- school system had its beginning. At that time a sz-ininary, located at the corner of College and liberty streets, was purchased for thc sum of Sl I jtlttl. Only one professional teacher was employed. Through Chrisman's bustling halls, activity is everywhere. Doors open to admit students at 7:15 a.m. to mark the beginning of each busy day. Walk- ing down the green tiled halls while classes are in session, everything is quiet, but one can easily sense the high spirit of the 1,265 students housed within these classrooms. Time for the final bell, 2:15 p.m., does not mark the close of the day for everyone as varied activities continue for many students. It is not only the students of William Chrisman, but also the 64 faculty members who make this building at 1223 North Noland Road something of which to be proud.
