BCDARD OF EDUCATIO To the Members of the Class of 1960: We have heard so much these days about the role of education in the life of our nation that one might receive the impression this is some new discovery. Only those ignorant of American history could fail to realize that our young people have always been our most precious natural resource and education the only means of using their talents and energies for their own happiness and the happiness of others. Not our power as a nation was determined by the education of our young people, it was our claaraclef' as a nation that was shaped thereby. This was and is the source of our great- ness and strength. The Class of 1960 is to be congratulated on the successful completion of the pre- scribed course of study of the Danbury High School and on the fine record it has achieved. It must be borne in mind, however, that the past, filled with the adventure of learning and the joy of achievement, is but a prelude to a life of continuing creative effort This moment in your careers is rightly called Commencement 'i for it heralds the beginning of a new and wonderful life It is the hope of your Board of Education that the future of the class of 1960 will be a challenge to its members and an inspiration to all PRESIDENT Danbury Board of Education BOARD OF EDLCATION Left to right Chester W Foley Secretary Eugene V Rohland Louis C Klinzmg Vice President Mildred G Smith Re cording Secretary Walter P Sweet Superintendent of Schools Rabbr Jerome R Malmo President Arnold McLachlan Charles I Sweeney Henry A Rocano Dr Henry N Blansfield Absent Thomas A Keating john P Prevldr Edgar T White Assistant Secretary john A Define ' 7 y ' l . . , , . , . , - 5 . , - 7 ' 5 7 ' Y Q 7 . , . , . . . . . , . 5 ' . , , . .
