He grew up in Wellston and graduated from Wellston High School. He graduated from Southeast Missouri State Teachers College and then taught civics, sociology and economics in Wellston High School during the 1940s, 50s and 60s. In 1970, he became an assistant superintendent, and two years later became superintendent. Mr. Williams was the Wellston School's Superintendent from 1972 until 1979, when he retired.Lance Williams was first and foremost an educator, he always had time to help you find the answers you needed. He was interested in helping all of us move from our very early teens, to the time when we registered for the draft. We did not need prescriptions to help us through the tough teen years. We had dedicated teachers that cared and helped us. Mr Williams was one of these caring teachers.
Thank You, Mr. Williams!
