LEADERS OF WOODROW WILSON HIGH SCHOOL Past, Present and Future In the stated philosophy of Woodrow Wilson High School, one of the prime objectives is to provide opportunities for the develop- ment of leadership. One has only to look back over the records of not only the present generation, but of the generations which reach back to the beginning of this High School to realize that the attain- ment of this objective has been fulfilled. Graduates and former students of the High School have contributed in outstanding measure in all fields of our American Way of Life. A roster of men and women successful in the professional fields-clergymen, dentists, physicians, educational leaders, musicians, lawyers-would include a goodly proportion of our graduates. In the world of business would be found successful bankers, publishers, railroad oHicials, engineers, technicians, and men active in varied civic organizations. Graduates of this High School are found in positions of responsibility in the Navy Yard, many of such leaders having obtained their fundamental training in our shops and laboratories. No one doubts for a moment that leaders of the generation which must manage the Post-War World will of necessity be men and women of broad understanding and special aptitudes. To this end, our High School is redoubling its effort to prepare the present genera- tion for the positions of leadership which will be required of them.
