a special resolution citing him
for his "service and leadership

of things which have made
my life an important one in 43
years with the system."

place in the coun'ry where American

dignity of the indviidual should
flourish, it is in the classroom."

School, moving to the new high
school in 1930.

principal of Center Avenue
School and after three
years in this position, he began
his 14-year career as principal
