TO THE CITIZENS OF ABINGDON AREA to0 ' All 33 Everywhere today there is a growing demand for high performance. For the worker to do more in fewer hours ... for the student to learn more to become eligible for college ... for educators to continue their studies for master degrees and doctorates. Achievements accomplished through this demand have made new hori- zons in living with a new concept of standards and leisure. To meet and gracefully accept these new standards, a student in Abingdon High School becomes keenly aware that he is being groomed for this important art of living. Broader subjects, keener minds to teach them a revolutionary concept of co-curricular activities in- cluding community living, is preparing each student to take his place and contribute without doubt or bewilder- ments.
