, W ,,,, 2 The theme of this year's yearbook is the Good Ole Days. It is terribly difficult to think of this generation as those old fashion kids who went to Byron Area High School back in 75. l'm not so certain than any of us really wish to be remembered fifty years from now as old timers. What will the curriculum be like when Byron is 200 years old? How will the students dress? Will teachers be people or will they be rolled out and plugged in? Those of us who are concerned with education and Byron will not notice the changes as much as those who pro- fess not to care. How about you? Won't you show that you care by giving of yourself and let only time bring about the changes? Best wishes. Sincerely, David H. McNeil, Principal
