THE ECHO 1959-1960 Volume XIV Berlin Local School Berlin Heights, Ohio I FOREWORD Berlin Local School is striving to provide an educational program which will meet the needs of its students. This program is ever-changing, a: the world in which our students live is ever-changing. However, certain basic elements are present in education as there have been ii. the past; as they will need to be in the future. Some of these for us to learn are to strivr to do better; to make the most of educational opportunities offered; to live understanding with others; to be proud of achievements; to face disappointments with a resolute resolve to overcome such circumstances; and to prepare ourselves for worthy citizenship. To accomplish the above, t ere must be close cooperation with the home, school, and the community. The home is most important as it is there that the child gets his early training, the establishment of his habitswhich will determine what he does with his life. In the home the child learns that there is a feeling of being loved and being cared for, of knowing that there is a definite place 1 'r him in our society. oe school offers a more formalized type of education. Here, subject matter 1' —red, basic skills taught that will lead to the vocation or avocation the student will follow. School days are formative days which determine the social attributes the student will carry with him. The community is a composite of home, church, and school. It establishes the customs and pattern of living. In the final analysis the community controls the type of education received by the youth. Our .ocal community is fortunate that the majority of citizens are forward looking, education-minded people. With such beliefs fostered by our community, we are determined that Berlin Local School be second to none in the oppor- tunities offered for the education of the children entrusted to us.

We are saying farewell to the wholesome experiences and the try- ing moments of the last four years; we are saying farewell to the faculty and other students; and we are saying farewell to each other. At the same time, we are looking toward what the future holds for us. We trust that our education here has prepared us for whatever lies ahead. In the past four years we have witnessed vast changes that have occurred in our attitude and in our sense of values. When we were beginning high school as freshmen, we did not look any further ahead than the end of our high school education and we could not comprehend the idea of going out on our own. We did not completely realize the value of an education or the importance of doing well in high school. But, as we came through the ranks of high school, we began to see the benefits we could get from a good education, we began to consider college, and we began to think about a life-long vocation. Now, almost as being wakened from a dream by a shower of cold water, the fact that we have now arrived at the thres- hold of maturity has hit us. It is through the efforts and prompting of our parents that we have completed our high school education. It is through the efforts of the Board of Education, the faculty, and our fellow students that we have been given opportunities to develop aptitudes in extra curricular activities. Our class has done well in many fields. Each member has contributed much to our over all success. In our four years in high school, members of our class have excelled in such areas as scholarship, athletics, music, journalism, and com- munity leadership. Members of our class have received recog- nition in the fields of science, sports, and state and national scholarship tests. Six members belong to the National Honor Society. Five members belong to the Quill and Scroll. Yes,- as a class we have had many honors bestowed upon us. With all of these accomplishments in mind we are pro- ceeding into the world with a desire to continue in such a manner. Thirty percent of the class will be continuing their education. Some have chosen a vocation and will immediately begin their study of such things as engineering, teaching, accounting, and farm management. For others there will be an investigation in business and industry. put regards ss of our choice, we, the Class of I960, do not hesitate.
