Retired Principal at Old Town Shares Thoughts

Bob Blevins
 
In the Tuesday Aug. 28 issue of the Winston-Salem Journal, special correspondent Kathy Norcross Watts writes about Bob Blevins, who was principal at Old Town School (now Old Town Elementary) from 1952 to 1963.

"The school was the center of the community," Blevins told Watts. "We had a lot of community resources."

Blevins turned 95 recently.

Kathleen Smith, who taught first grade at Old Town when Blevins was principal, said, “He was very ahead of his time. He was all for children."
