A Word From The Superintendent World conditions today lend more emphasis than ever to the fact that the theme of modern education must be for the pursuit of excellence. We need to pursue excellence in the art of getting along together. In a nation that has a mere 6% of the earth’s people; we must know these other people—their history, cultural background, the economic situation, etc. In this age of science the pursuit of excellence in Mathematics is im- portant. The launching of Sputniks has brought to everyone's attention the fact that scientists and students, far from being “eggheads,’” are important members of the human race. A few years ago public opinion was concerned with the common man. Today the demand is for the uncommon man—for scientists and scholars by education and spirit equipped to lead. lt The achievement of excellence is not : something measurable with tools nor by courses and credits. Excellence is a function of the human spirit; excellence is dependent upon a true desire to learn. My challenge is that you intensely cul- tivate the desire to learn in your work—in your pursuit of excellence. L. E. Naragon, Superintendent | eemeeeee MR. LLOYD NARAGON Heidelberg College B.S. Columbia University M.A.
