 TOMORROW IS OURS Anticipation and excitement were apparent as the Seniors filed into the gym to receive their diplomas on the night of graduation. “Tomorrow Is Ours,” not only sets the theme but also the mood for graduation night. After this night the Seniors all go their separate ways. Some will further their education by going on to college while others pursue vocational careers or domesti- cated positions. Graduation marked not only an end but also a beginning. An end to high school and a few old friends, but the beginning of new life and some new friends, as well as new experiences- On the night of graduation some of the class left for the beach. The class also has plans for a reunion in five years. Three graduates leave the school with smiles on their faces, and diplomas in their hands. Mrs. Terry and Mrs. Harris watch Mrs. Westbrook cheer for the new graduates. 18
