a word from above The days pass like a fast moving stream as months quickly become years and students enter and leave the school. At first glance the days and years seem separated from one another by the Important events that occur. We tend to remember a particu- lar period as the year of the fire, or the year of the C.I.F. championship or the year of accreditation. Yet, in time, often these special occasions or achievements become less significant and the more personal experiences become more meaningful. To goto the semi-finals in volleyball was a great achievement filled with excite- ment and drama. However, before long the high emotion of those games will doubtless become somewhat over- shadowed by the fellowship of the bus trips, the inspiration of the devotional times and the intimate moments of sharingamong teammates. Scroll ' 78 will call to mind many events of the past year. However, the pictures and text represent only the visible part of this year ' s learning and growth. In the midst of the big events I trust you have learned something of how to live more wisely, love more fully, and serve more freely. Above all my prayer is that you have come to know God more completely, share His love more openly, and seek His will more ear- nestly. Seek the Lord and live . . . Amos 5:6a 148 PRlNCIPAL ' S

fine arfs The Fine Arts Club was composed of a small group of teachers and parents with a common goal, to provide addi- tional equipment for the Fine Arts Departments.

progress and growth There are signs of progress on every hand at Los Angeles Baptist High School. Since the school was started in 1 962 by the Los Angeles Baptist City Mission Society, there has been steady growth. This past year we have been through the regular accreditation examination and are approved with strong commendation for another five years. For the first time we conclude a year without the necessity of deficit fund- ing by the City Society. This is a goal that was acheived ahead of schedule, and is an indication of careful busi- ness management, realistic budget planning and faithful support of par- ents and friends. Demand for enrollment is enor- mous. It is presently impossible to accomodate those asking for admis- sion into Los Angeles Baptist High School. To accomodate more students will require more space and a larger faculty. The dilemma of costs and the need for special funds is very real. The first annual funds appeal though very modest in scope has pro- duced good results. This effort shows us that there are sufficient friends and patrons of the school to provide capi- tal funds for another two hundred stu- dents and the added facilities that such an increase would require. The Board of Directors and adminis- tration of the Los Angeles Baptist Mis- sion Society are strongly committed to this program of quality education, as evidenced by the funds and leadership already provided. We are convinced there are many others with similar commitment and concern who will make possible the needed expansion and growth so that many more young people will have the opportunity to receive a quality educa- tion in an atmosphere of Christian love and faith.
