Principal’s Message The graduating class of 1965 consists of thirty-nine boys and twenty-four girls--the largest in the history of Douglas High School. Of the boys and girls who entered the Junior I class of 100 in 1959-60, 65 per cent graduated in 1965. This is a remarkable increase in the number of graduates from the preceding classes. The average who graduated from Junior I class in the preceding years were one-half or less. The students of Douglas High School realize that an enriched curriculum must be offered and mastered by them today in order for them to satisfactorily com- pete with students from other high schools in college and other lines of endeavor or work. Our school has tried to prepare its students for this competition in offering advanced courses in subject matter fields. We have tried also to teach other things which are of equal if not greater im- portance. One of these lessons, not in the curriculum and difficult to teach, is the ability to face the problems of today and take practical steps toward their solution. With the rapid pace of modern life, things seem to be more involved. The world is more complex today than when we teachers and parents were young. A fellow got a job sweeping the floor in a bank, did his work well, and was rewarded with promotion. Each promotion brought more and different responsibilities which in turn did well. He even rose to a position of trust and finally became president of the bank. The path of success is not so clear today. The banker of today must learn many functions of banking from books and other courses that are taught in our high schools and colleges today. Our students are aware of these complex changes, not only in banking but in other occupations. Education has become a must to the forward-thinking student; therefore, the per- centage of students who enter Jr. I each year, graduate from Douglas High School, and continue their education, will increase.
