The 1940 Willamizzou SUPT. W. C. GRIMES 0111 school is our pride. Changing conditions have brought about new policies. Twenty years ago we had limited courses, small faculty, all town stu- dents; now we have modern courses, a large well-trained, highly specialized faculty, and we are educating over two-hundred non-resident boys and girls. The year just closing has been very successful. With added equipment, add- ed buildings, and enlarged faculty and courses it will be still better next year. The patrons, our excellent Board of Education, our fine Parent-Teacher Association, are all contributing their part to make our school a success. Of the five major trends in Education in the last twenty years, Physical Edu- cation, Vocational Courses, Music, Visual Education and Guidance, our school has kept abreast and has pioneered in three of them. We believe that the educated person must, in addition to knowing facts, have a well-rounded personality, be able to think straight, to solve problems, to use leisure wisely; to make adequate adjustment to a complex environment in an ever changing world.
