GUIDANCE Left to right, standing: Lib. A. Richello, D. P. Delaney, Seated : Elizabeth Klatt, Marie G. Zilli, Director. Jean Dunn, Margaret Dilzer - Secretaries. To the Class of 1967: Change seems to have been your heritage. Others will prefer to say you have had to learn to adjust to new situ- ations, ideas, and times. Both may well be true in some sense. However, it has been your right to choose and to do or not to do. You chose the manner in which you would exploit your years at Amity, your chance to learn, to prepare and to change. That time is past and you will enter into new times and places which will never remain static. You will mold and build them through your actions and decisions or lack of them. Their styles and values will inevitably be yours. We believe you are prepared to continue to learn, to adapt and adopt ideas and values on a rational basis. If this process of learning and choosing continues, your individual times should be good. . ' Marie G. Zilli D. P. Delaney Elizabeth Klart Lib. A. Richello

We appreciate the services you have rendered the school and wish each and every one of the class of 1967 our best wishes for the future in whatever field of endeavor you may choose. Joseph Feher The mission of education is to equip young Americans for life in our democracy and, where possible, to provide leadership capable of meeting the issues which must be faced and settled. Our academic obligation goes far beyond a preparation for a livelihood, whether in business or in any of the professions. It calls for the production of the citizens who have assimilated the best in our cultural inheritance and who with this background can broadly interpret the problems of the present, while assuming responsibility for the guidance of public opinion and public action. We at Amity feel confident that you, the Class of 1967, can look back upon your school years in the knowledge that you have been provided with abundant opportunities to prepare for such awesome responsibilities. Your contribu- tions at Amity in a short span of years give promise of future success in assuming these responsibilities. I wish to express my personal appreciation to you for the good years We have just concluded and to extend to you the chal- lenge of fulfilling the mission of a democratic education. James Peters JOSEPH FEHER, Assistant Principal
