"Even
as I please all men in all
things, not seeking mine own profit
but the profit of many.."I Cor.10:13"
As
we are told in the above quotation from the Bible,
this fine new school plant will only stand as
a symbol of beauty and education with a capital
"E" if each of us is careful and considerate
of the building and of each other. This can be
done by watching our hands, keeping them clean
and off of the building and cross pieces, by not
defacing the property, obeying the rules and regulations,
walking in the corridors, and "doing unto
others as we would be done by".
The
observation of the Golden Rule is essentially
the only rule necessary. The fewer rules we must
impose otherwise the better.
But
this is not the most important way we can profit.
It is to carry on the fine Glenridge school spirit
we have started -- displaying the fine sportsmanship
as shown by our school team.
Let
us carry on in the fine Glenridge way and leave
the good profit for "the many". Thank
you for your fine spirit and your excellent cooperation.
Yours
for the Glenridge way....

Glenridge
Junior High School opened their new plant on Glenridge
Way, Winter Park, on March 12, 1956. It is a modern
plant covering 18 acres.
Principal
A. E. Stockard, ably assisted by Miss Mary Shiver,
assistant principal, Mrs. Dorothy Allen, the school
secretary, and a faculty of 21, supervised the
move from Signal Hill over the previous weekend.
Many of the students rolled up their sleeves and
worked right along, hour for hour.
Monday
morning found business as usual in the new school.
Lunch was served in the well-equipped cafetorium
without undue confusion.
The
classrooms are large, all being equipped with
northern light, ample blackboard space, two tack
boards, clocks, cross ventilation, office controlled
speakers, and modern no-shadow lights.
Upon
driving up to the school, the entrance has two
driveways, one for cars and one for the buses,
with a covered loading platform.
The
first wing of the modern building contains the
administrative offices and eight classrooms
The
second wing houses the rest rooms, eight classrooms,
including two science-equipped laboratories, and
the book room. At the end of this wing the corridor
leads at the east end to the cafetorium and the
art, music and industrial arts departments. |
