top administrators . . . Wilfred H. Graves Superintendent PRINCIPAL ' S MESSAGE The high school education to be meoningful should awoken the student to his environment, acquaint him with man ' s needs, accomplishments and failures, his responsibilities both moral and intellectual and to some degree to acquaint him with his future. So much has taken place so quickly during the past twenty-five years that the student is challenged to the utmost to keep himself suf- ficiently informed of the new that he may compare it and rationalize it with the old. The failure of education to accomplish these ends undermines the very foundations of essential and fundamental dis- ciplines. The doors of education are only partially ajar. Your contributions will determine to a great degree the points to which these doors open further, but of this we can be sure — as education opens the door to new and more wonderful vistas, it is most essential that the appearing vision include the fac- tual and inspire the cultural, the moral and the spiritual. Nothing less is acceptable. SUPERINTENDENT ' S MESSAGE It has been said that the mistake most often made concerning education is that it is an end to be achieved. Education should not be a destina- tion — but a road we travel all the days of our lives. Norman Cousins in the Clearing House states it very well — Education fails unless the three R ' s at one end of the school spectrum lead ulti- mately to the four P ' s at the other — Preparation for Earning; Preparation for Living; Preparation for Understanding; and Preparation for Partici- pation in the problems involved in the making of a better world. May your educational achievement help you to open the doors to worthwhile living and may you make your contribution in helping to make it a better world. Walter J. Stahura Principal 8
