edu? ol? llqb ll Miss Sarah Mathews Dr. W. Klopp UPERVISION AND METI-ICDS-Continuing the policies begun in the administrative plans of Woodrow Wilson, supervision of teach- ing and vocational and academic counseling have for the past year been under the leadership of Dr. W. Klopp, supervisor of instruction, and Miss Sarah L. Mathews, counselor-registrar. During this time extensive contributions to the advancemnt of education have been made by both depart- mCl1tS. Through the office of Dr. Klopp, prominent educator of the nation, new ideas and techniques have been worked out in teaching procedures to improve the capacity of the ordinary student and to definitely measure the knowledge assimilated by him. In line with Dr. Klopp,s plans, techniques for the improvement of instruction have been advanced by Miss Helen T. Bailey in humanities, Miss Anna Stofflet in third year English and Home Room manuals, Miss Metha Stu- empel in poetry, R. D. Woodward in English, Byron Scott and Herschel H. Hart in social sciences, and Miss Margaret H. Kneibes in commercial sub- jects. Under Miss Mathews, counselor-registrar, the guidance of the vast numbers of students passing through the school is built up by the Home Room plan, a new theory of counseling the individual student through a definite program outlined by the student. Information on institutions of higher learning, vocational advice, and individual possibilities are handled in this department.

IilBE.7Q1fmll II Miss Mattie Paine john Mangold DMINISTRATICN-This year the Woodrow Wilson High School celebrates the end of a five year period as a modern institution of learn- ing. During this time a galaxy of events has occured, two complete schools have arisen, and substantial advancements in the progress of education have been made. Criss-crossing the path of these achievements are the untiring efforts of the administrative staff, headed by Principal John L. Lounsbury. Under the guidance of these leaders, the Junior College has been housed in a separate plant during the past year, and a new athletic field has been started. A nationally recognized curriculum, constantly being improved by a corps of experts of the city system, is offered by the administration. It is exceptionally rich in the va-riety and usefulness of the courses which it extends. From aviation to Latin, from orientation to stage-craft, the old and the new are combined to present an unparalleled opportunity for students to equip them- selves for their life work. To the policy of keeping Wilson open always to experiments which will definitely advance education can be attributed this privileged and honored standing. John Mangold, Vice-principal, and Miss Mattie Paine, Dean of Girls, have direct charge of the manifold duties arising from the supervision of the great number of students who attend the Woodrow Wilson High School. Others serving on the administration staff are Dr. W. Klopp, Supervisor of Instruction, and Miss Sarah Mathews, Counselor- registrar. PAGE 22
