DEDICATION Without the teachers that have worked with us daily, very few of us could even begin to occupy a worthwhile place in the world that we enter on graduation day. Their instructions, encouragements, and suggestions have played an important part in our mental, social, spiritual and physical develop- ment and have helped us to make many of the decisions that determine our futures. Although most people would like to limit a teacher's influence to a particular classroom subiect, this is only one of its many phases. lt is also strongly felt in extra-curricular activities where teachers serve as advisors and in informal between-class or after-school talks. Even though many of these sessions are very short, they often lead us to the solution of our current problem. Remembering all of these things, we would like to think of Mr. Robert Dyer, who passed away during this school year, as an example of one of these outstanding people. His influence affected all of us even though many never had him as an instructor for a particular class. His smiling face, his words of encouragement and praise, and his trust in the students will long be remembered. ln addi- tion to his regular duties, he served as an advisor to our yearbook for several years. ln an effort to express our appreciation to these people with whom we spend many years of our life, we would dedicate our yearbook to them and to the teaching profession which they represent.
