Wvade Miss Sarah Mathews DMINISTRATION-With an increased attendance providing diffi- culties, with financial tangles to unravel, and with new praises of the Long Beach School System constantly ringing in their ears, the Adminis- trative Staff of Wilson has completed one of its most difficult, yet from the standpoint of stu-rdy accomplishment, one of the most satisfactory years of its history. ' Methods of instruction employed in the Long Beach public schools, of which Wilson is a viral unit, are the cynosure of the educational eyes of the nation. The general policy and courses of study have aroused phenomenal interest. For his fine leadership, his keen vision in projecting philosophies many years in advance of his fellow educators, Wilson, Long Beach, the State of California is indebted to W. L. Stephens, retiring superintendent of schools. Students have opportunities which cover every phase of education, from Foods classes, open to both boys and girls, up to the most advanced and intellectual of the scientific and cultural studies. Perhaps the members of the Administrative Staff who come in direct contact with the greatest number of students are Miss Mattie Paine, Dean of Girls, John Mangold, Vice-principal, and Miss Sarah Mathews, Counselor. Others who are of vital importance in accomplishing the many duties of the staff are Dr. W. Klopp, Director of Teaching, and K. Wade, Financial Secretary. These persons give their time unsparingly to the advancement of the efficiency and general desirability of the courses of study. PAGE 22
