During his tenure, he oversaw the growth of the student body from 1200 to 1900 students when the extension school came into existence. He was also the headmaster when the Calabar High School football team toured England and Wales in 1973, won the Walker Cup for the first time in 1974, and wrestled away the Championship Cup from Kingston College in 1976. He is a member of the Atlanta Chapter of COBA, and continues to be a strong supporter of Calabar High School.
