Dear Graduates) The legendary old baseball pitcher, Satchel Paige, once said: Don’t look back; someone may be gaining on you . I would like to amend that advice somewhat. Don’t be afraid to look back) but try to look ahead with the advantage of past experience. That, rather than to see whether anybody is gaining on you, is why man was designed to be able to turn around and look in any direction. Above all, as you move on, remember that human attribute: the ability to turn around and look in any direction. Blind¬ ers are for horses, not for people. If education has any single goal, it is to encourage people to know how to ask questions and to know how to go about getting answers. It is not enough in life to be a listener, a passive member of the audience. It is not enough to look straight ahead and never look around. It is not enough to breathe a sigh and assume that your learning days are over. The lucky individ¬ ual is the individual who never stops learning until he or she stops breathing. Mr. David Jardin Principal Be such a person and your future will be a happy and prosperous one. David Jardin, Principal Mrs. Ann Keshura Secretary Mr. Gerald A.

Congratulations to the class of 1989 on the occasion of your graduation. The reception of a diploma on commencement day signifies the successful completion of your elementary and secondary education. You should feel proud of this ac¬ complishment and anxious to begin the next phase of development in the pursuit of a career and a place in society. Your parents and community have made a significant investment in your future by providing you with a sound basic education. Not to be forgotten is the fact that you also have invested a great deal of time, effort, and study in attain ing your diploma. However, graduation from high school should be viewed as a beginning not an end. You should continue investing in education as you select a career field and establish your future goals. The expectations of today ' s society dictate that education be a continuing process. Your future success will be influenced by many factors, not the least of which is the quality and level of education.
