con en 1 IFF ts 14 1 IRFRTY 46 PURSUIT OF HAPPINESS 66 SPIRIT OF 76 90 In the words, There comes a time in one’s life”, there exists the knowledge that we, the Spirit of 76, after a long and difficult struggle, have realized our manhood. We have become individuals capable of accepting any challenge given to us. In 1776, our Founding Fathers discovered their individuality. The Patriots felt that they should have the liberty to choose their own way of life. But they also knew that without a unified effort, they would never attain that liberty. We the Patriots of today, must continue to strive for unity, for we are a community of brothers, a community of love. When recalling the anniversaries, of both our school and our nation, we must not let ourselves become caught up in facts and figures. For in the true pursuit of happiness, statistics mean nothing. It is the presence of love, the existence of brotherhood, and the essence of the spirit, that makes us what we are. In this, our pictorial representation of the 1975-76 school year, the student, his life, and his teachers are all interrelated. For this reason they are presented as Life. We, the student body, possess the freedom to choose our own extra-curricular activities. Therefore, these activities appear as Liberty.” We also hold the zest for competition. We chose to call this the “Pursuit of Happiness.” Needless to say, we, the Seniors, are the Spirit of 76.” 5
