Q On a beautiful nine-acre site at Payne Avenue and 19th Street, an impressive one- story building forming a square around a picturesque courtyard was constructed. This modern edifice situated on a campus of natural beauty is our own Bishop Gibbons High School. Within this masonry one of the noblest of human activities is conducted-the education of youth which is at once a challenge and an opportu- nity. o Since we are the members of the first graduating class of Bishop Gibbons we, the Seniors, would like to have you explore the activities of the school and meet its Principal, faculty, personnel, student body, and, of course, us Seniors. Thus, it is our satisfaction to give you a comprehensive and enlightened tour of a structure which you have helped build and for which we are grateful. Q We must emphasize that with the changing and expanding curriculum and meth- odology of education with which the Diocesan Schools keep abreast and likewise foster, our school system maintains the strong Christian Philosophy of education which reflects the ardor, travail, and prowess of the Eloquent Teacher Himself Who has commissioned His Chosen Ones to go and instruct. Our school is part of this system. We have a school that is ours to write about, think about, read about, and look at. It is difficult to capture on the printed page all we wish to say and to show. So, let us begin to escort you on this journey. o Welcome to Bishop Gibbons High School! 2
