E I0ll CLASS lIlS'l'0llY As the familiar strains of Tannhauser fill the Chapel, the members of the Class of 1955 walk down the aisle to receive their diplomas, and to take a last look at the surroundings in which they have been carefully guided for the last few years. It has not been an easy road to travel--the obstacles have been many and great--but as we reach our destination, we realize that the activities, the routines, even the slightly unpleasant moments, have all been for our benefit. Here at Castilleja we have been prepared and disciplined for the rigors and opportunities of the everyday world which we will meet in college, travel, marriage, or careers. With misty eyes we think back over the past few years and their events. Even with all the trying and discouraging moments, there have been invaluable experiences. Our high school days are over, to be sure, but the memories will return 'when tamarisk and jasmine bloom in spring . The Senior parties, the Senior Fair, the traditional activitiesg all these and more will not be easily forgotten. Often June seems a long way off, but as graduation draws near, we wonder where the time has gone. On Class Day, with the lowering of our class flag and the raising of the next class flag, we relin- quish our rights as seniors and take our place as alumnae on Graduation Day. We watch these last performances of our high school days with sentimental feelings, but as we leave the halls of Castilleja we go forward to meet a world full of opportunities and adventures, confident that next year's Seniors will also carry on the traditions of our Alma Mater. 23
