DEDICATION With genuine affection and appreciation, we dedicate this, the 1968 Pennpoint to Miss E. L. McConnell. For the past years, you have been a teacher whose persistence and guidance have prepared many students for the rigors of tomorrow’s world. Your wisdom has created in us a thirst for the enrichment of the intellect. The perseverance and stamina with which you carry out your work have encouraged us to enhance our potential ability fully and effectively on the task at hand. Your ideas of Higher Education have guided us with a sense of purpose and a mature attitude. We realize that a vast span of knowledge has been instilled within us, and although we have yet to put its benefits to use we have been enriched by your standards of teaching. Because you have given so zealously of your time, service and self, we thank you sincerely and hope others to follow shall benefit from your diligent efforts. The 1968 Pennpoint Staff. 19

Dr. Dean B. Pruette Superintendent High Point City Schools Dr. Lloyd Y. Thayer Associate Superintendent High Point City Schools Mrs. Virginia Lewis Director of Instruction High Point City Schools The High Point School Board has tremendous job of running the schools. One of their main functions is to provide teachers for the schools. A true test of their ability is the speed with which they are able to fill vacancies in many of our schools. Again the members of the Board continue their strenuous efforts to perfect an adequate public school system. Included in their plans is the closing of our “Dear William Penn”. And with such an end in mind, a new building is being constructed to house former Pennites and absorb the overflow of students expected at Central High in the forthcoming year. Furthermore, because of the efficiency of our School Board in screening all applicants for teaching positions, William Penn’s staff meets the requirements of one of the best.
