Superintendent! Message I. E. WALSH, Superintendent U0 tffe Cfasi of 7938 Your class is about to complete its public school career, Have you enjoyed it? Did you get your money's worth? Will it be of any particular value in the future? These, of course, are very important questions in your mind: but the Nampa School District, Canyon County, and State of Idaho might well ask will they get any good out of your public school career. In plain language, how much are you worth to your community, county, and state? Your education cost about S55 per year for the first eight years spent in school, or a total of 5440. During the past four years, the average cost per year for your high school training has been approximately 580, or a total of 5320. The grand total for the entire twelve years of public schooling would amount on the above basis of calculation to approximately S760 for each person in the Senior Class, Since there are 209 in the graduating class, the class then would cost the taxpayers 209 times 515760 or S158,840. This is a sizable sum of money in any com- munity. Will the class of 1938 return to society the 5158840 investment with interest, or will this be a loss, and will it be just an additional burden to this community? Have the taxpayers invested wisely? We school teachers naturally feel that the investment has been very valuable and will pay large returns to society as a whole. We expect each one of you to assume the re- sponsibility for this investment, and, as a citizen of the United States, discharge this obligation by making yourself competent, efficient, and successful in some line of work, Little can be done, after all, for the individual who cannot and will not help himself. A youth without a high school diploma must watch many opportunities pass him by. Many will seek additional training in vocational schools, as apprentices on the job, and in colleges. Those of us who have helped to direct your activities during the past twelve years hope that the future will bring success and happiness to each member of the Class of 1938. We hope that whatever con- tribution you may make to society in return for what society has done for you will reflect to some extent the spirit and influence of the Nampa Public Schools. I, E. WALSH, Superintendent,
