I Dedic STANLEY L. CLEMENT Principal tLe Your yearbook presents an interesting, well illustrated and thorough record of the activities of the school. It will prove a bond tying you, as alumni, to Braintree High School. It will be treasured by each of you after graduation. Many times you will glance over its pages and think of the happy years you spent here. As the publication date is approaching you become increasingly aware of an- other chapter in your life being brought to a close. For some of you, this is marked with sadness; for others, graduation is more of a joyful event. In eith- er case, a deep sense of accomplishment will be felt as you reflect on the long hours of preparation leading to the reception of a high school diploma. As you approach the close of this chapter in life it might be well to reflect on the opportunities that hove been yours. Only in a country dedicated to dem- ocratic ideals has youth had the opportunity for free public education. Your accomplishment not only is a result of your effort but represents the investment of your parents and community. As you go forth to accept the challenge of adult life we hope the skills, attitudes and understandings developed in high school will contribute to a finer citizenship in which you can repay for this in- vestment by your active participation in community life in the future. Come back and see us, follow our special events, attend our athletic contests and help root our teams on to victory. We will be interested in hearing about your experiences. Wherever you go remember Braintree High School is your school. Help her to bear her name proudly. Be satisfied only with your best.
