NEW PRINCIPAL AT CASTLEWOOD Mr. Steve Banner It has been my honor and privilege to have been associated with the students and faculty of Castlewood High School this year. Through the combined efforts of all of us working together I feel we have had a very successful year. I feel we have been successful in coordinating a program of academics and activities which has been challenging as well as exciting. A total overall program that has enabled the students to be involved in new and different experiences, which I feel is one of the basic principles of education. I look forward to next year with a great deal of anticipation. We are planning changes in our curriculum that will add excitement and enthusiasm to the learning process. Education is a continuous learning process for students, faculty and ad- ministrators alike. This is why I hope you will join me in moving forward toward our goal to make Castlewood High School an even greater learning institution than it already is. As we look forward to the end of school and all the fun and activity we will be in- volved in, we are faced with one somber fact. That is the graduation of our Senior Class. They have become very familiar fixtures at Castlewood High School and will be greatly missed. As with life, however, those of us who remain at Castlewood High School will go on, guided by the leadership of those who have gone before to new and even greater heights. Ve,
