Helpful information is given to the students and their parents throughout the school year with their meetings. The parents have a splendid opportunity to meet the teachers on 'Back to School Night' and attend classes to a similar schedule as the students. The incoming sophomores learn about the school in the 'Feeder School Orientation' meeting.

ffm. ,,'x. .,-. r. Chase TO THE CLASS OF 1967- More than ever in the history of our country We find ourselves charged with the responsibility and duty to preserve our democratic Way of life. As man journeys through the various phases of his continuous education, he comes to realize that, as a human race, we can be brilliant in mind and still be brutish and cruel. The world today is in a state of disrepair, Man's faith in himself is being severely tested. Man has the capabilities of learning from the past, to take heed of the present and prepare for the future. To preserve our democratic way of life, we must learn to recognize the dignity of the individual. One does not have to agree with another in order to keep from hurting him. But by recognizing the dignity of the individual, disagreement can occur without harm to either party. The human race is not quite what it should be. But the human race possesses the possibilities of becoming what We would prefer it to be. g Let us begin by being responsible individuals and by respecting the dignity of others. SIUCGICIY, LMA, Mr. Daniel F. Chase, Jr. Principal

In ppreciation For Their Services Due to the devotion and dedication of Mrs. Grace Grant, Mr. john Seaton, and Mr. Edward Scott, who have been here since the opening of the school, DuVal Senior High School has prospered greatly. Since these three teachers are so much a part of DuVal, we hope, by dedicating the 1967 yearbook to them, we can show how much we have them at heart. Mrs. Grace Grant In Mrs. Grant's first year she co-sponsored the National Honor Society. She also has been head of the school supply store for a number of years. At present and as in the past, she has been head of the Math Department. Perhaps to us what is most important, she has been an excellent math teacher. Mr. John Seaton Mr. Seaton started at DuVal in the fall of 1960 when the school opened. He had a break of service for one year to do graduate work at Boston University. During the years he has been here at DuVal, he has been coach of the j.V. baseball team and Business Manager for ticlcet sales. The most im- portant to us Seniors, however, is that he is Chairman of the Senior Class sponsors. S C Mr. Edward Scott Over the years Mr. Scott has been sponsor of the Physics- Chemistry Club, coordinator of the DuVal Science Fair, and coordinator to the County Science Fair. He has been head of the Duval Science Department and is now head of the Physics- Chemistry and Audio Visual Departments. As Mr. Scott would say you can't get something for nothing, so get working!
