O ,M sf SCHOOL BOARD We PRlNClPAL'S MESSAGE The greatest values known to man are those that are spiritual in nature. As a person goes through life, he needs to set up certain spiritual goals which he strives to attain. We, the Bernice High School students and teachers, should always set up the highest spiritual goals and strive in our everyday living to attain these goals. One of the aims of our school program is the teaching of spiritual values which will be help- ful in both the student body and the teaching personnel. Let us work together in achieving this aim. 5 ff ,f . FACULTY FACULTY IONE BIVENS LUCIA BLACK ERA CAGLE JOHN CALDWEL1., JR.
