Like every good thing thrust upon society, its inception originated in the minds of the Minorty. It came, not like the Goddess Minerva who sprang full grown from the brain of Zeus, but rather like the French Democracy, which was defeated and trampled a number of times, only to rise the more glorious because of its struggle for its early existence. The high school organization suffered its first defeat in the year of 1920, when those opposed carried the day by a small majority only. Again in June 1923 the opposition prevailed and the organization was defeated. Finally however in March 1925, the final count of votes showed a small majority in favor of the high school. A board was soon elected and plans were made for' the Cissna Park Community High School to go into opera- tion in September 1925. It's first year of activities is just now ending. We believe that the Cissna Park Community High School has come to stay. We believe that with the size and the population of its district, the enrollment will continue to increase and the school will ever grow in its service to the community. Just as any good thing of a community stands out as a thing of pride to that locality, so will our school merit the backing of our citizens and stand forth as a thing of which they may be justly proud. We hope that it may stand forth as a center of culture, cooperation, and service, a competent guide to the youths of the community during their four most impressive years, helping them to form proper tastes, prejudices and habits. We trust that through their contact with the school, our children may gain an understanding of life and the natural laws that in- fluence it, grow in self-confidence, self-control, and self-respect, find their possibilities and limitations, discriminate between culture and coarseness, good and evil, learn to exercise a driving power in attacting worthwhile problems, experience the joy in striving and the pleasure that comes from doing good work, and build into their personality, ideals, aims and pur- poses to lead them on to the best expression of themselves and the greatest service to our community. May such be the purpose of our school. age -e- -e--- k at 1926 H-aaa IPAGE 91
