CENTENNIAL JOINT SCHOOL BOARD Standing: J. Comly Stover, E. Earle Sinkler, Jr., Fred Wright, Lillian Kastle, Norman Robinson, Donald Beatty, Horace Yerkes, James Brooks. Seated: Janina Haag, Charles Rich, Fred J. Stackpole, Horace Carter, Ryland Stock, Marie Kolbe. The Centennial Joint Board of School Directors is composed of seventeen members: five from the borough of Ivyland, five from the township of Upper Southampton, and seven from the township of Warminster. The Centennial Board is responsible for the operation of the complete Centennial School System, grades T through 12, and buildings and facilities for all high school students, grades 7 through 12. In addition to regular monthly meetings, the Board is also involved in many special in-between meetings in order to provide sufficient time to do justice to the many problems of business and education with which it is concerned. Many special committees also operate to speed up the functions of the Board. School Board membership is considered an honor, and each of the members of the Centennial Joint School Board is happy for the opportunity to serve his com- munity and his state. Each is interested in the welfare of the children and in the advancement of education in our several communities. Each school director plays a leading role in the formulation of school policies relative to the conduct and administration of the educational program of the Centennial School System. School Board membership is not only a challenge, but it is an opportunity to serve. It makes certain demands upon those who hold the office. It requires, in addition to time and effort, careful consideration of the character and magni- tude of the responsibilities involved. In addition to a willingness to serve, a board member must possess a knowledge of sound and effective practices as well as a basic knowledge of the school laws if he is to be a positive force in the education of present and future citizens. Centennial Board membership is composed of men and women from many walks of life. Their education and experience are varied and well-rounded, and their capable direction has been amply demonstrated. It would seem, therefore, that our schools are in good hands. We, as members of the T958 graduating class of William Tennent High School, pay tribute to these public-spirited men and women who render dedicated service to our community.
