fOli As each student arrives at Clark in the fall, he has in mind a certain goal. For some that goal may be to make a varsity athletic team; others hope to achieve a straight A average; still others seek to act in a school play. To reach his peak of success, each student must possess high ideals, a willingness to work, and the courage to face disappointments. The athletic hopeful may not make the team; the dedicated scholar may not earn a straight A; the would-be Thespian may never play a major role. What ever the challenge may be, we face each with the determination and zest typical of Clark teen-agers. Every team, class, or activity to which we contribute adds to our total goal. As 1963 draws to a close, we believe we have at least attempted to climb every mountain that Clark has presented to us. find xjour dr ream

and Library Provide Intellectual Stimulus Knowledge is furthered in all facets of a Clark student’s life. In academic courses, the conscientious help of the teachers awakens the individual to the wonders of knowledge. The library makes available vast stores of human thought. There, resource ma¬ terial supplements assignments. Students gather in the library during study periods and after school to complete assignments or to find books for reports or extra reading assignments. Informally, the Clarkite acquires knowledge from his companions. Throughout the entire day, students rehash assignments. Open discussion promotes bet¬ ter understanding of the subjects. In activities stu¬ dents gain information from many different fields. Total experiences of Clark life greatly aid the stu¬ dent in his search for knowledge. Students also learn outside the school.
