EDITOR’S MESSAGE We have completed a year of public education. There is no restriction to our reactions to it. Yet we cannot credit our¬ selves with the achievement of this freedom. Mr. Chaffee and the School Committee have provided ideal conditions, modern facilities, an excellent faculty, and an educational policy flexible enough for experimentation. Mr. Graves, Mr. Kamitian, and Mr. D ' Aniello by choosing to regard us as responsible citizens of the school community encourage both responsible action and instructive re¬ action. Providing us with the alternatives for intelligent decisions, our guidance coun¬ selors have been thinking of our choices, now that we are leaving Wellesley High School. We have spent six fifty-minute per¬ iods a day in classes. The teachers who have led them have encouraged us, sometimes compelled us, sometimes humored us to react to the books, the ideas, the people who make up a school. Whatever expression is recorded on the pages of this book ex¬ tends beyond the people whose faces are pictured. 16

PRINCIPAL’S MESSAGE TO THE CLASS OF 1967: The time has finally arrived when you bid good-bye to your high school years, and it is my sincere hope that during these years we have helped you to lay a firm foundation on which to build a most successful and productive life. The future holds much in store for each one of you. The responsibilities that you now face will continue to in¬ crease, and how well you meet them depends upon how well your home, your school, and your community have met theirs in nurturing you. Remember always that your parents, teachers, and friends sincerely trust that you succeed in fulfilling the am¬ bitions you now hold and that you will be able to fulfill all the require¬ ments of a well-spent life. Good-bye and good luck to all of you! Samuel M. Graves PRINCIPAL 18
