ADMINISTRATION To The Seniors of 1962 . . . On behalf of the faculty of McClenaghan High School I extend to our seniors and other readers of this annual warm greetings. If I were asked what I consider to be the outstanding feature of this class, I would unhesitatingly answer, “School Spirit.” You have lecl the student body to the highest ideals in school spirit. This McClenaghan spirit has manifested itself in the rebirth of the Yellow Jacket, in athletic contests, the singing groups, and in the classroom. Our faculty is a group of dedicated, self-sacrificing men and women. Each of them has shown a spirit of devotion to the welfare of the students and to the proper development of the school. This, more than words, shows their interest in the school and community they serve. The members of the board of trustees are vitally concerned in directing the management of the school. They give unselfishly of their time and talent toward solving our problems and working out a unified program for continued progress. The value of this volume of the Florentine will increase with the passing years. This book will keep alive the memories of your high school days. May success and happiness be yours in the days and years to come. Sincerely, J. Carlyle Lever. 16
