Life... You miss your bus ... you fall on the way to the Annex ... you look up during your study to seea student crawling out the back door ... surprise quiz ... you forget your locker key ... fire drill during your only study of the day ... you give ten kids detention and then find out it’s your night to watch detention hall... you read Return of the Native in one night and find out it isn’t due ’till next week ... you come in late to miss a first period test and find out the teacher didn’t give the test ... term papers from all five classes come in on the same day ... you write yourself ten early dismissals and then find out they'll be on the report card ... all the other schools are closed because of snow and your school isopen ... the master for your test is eaten by the mimeograph machine five minutes before the class starts. 18 Mr. Michael Kokonowski — English ‘An educated person is one who knows the significance of what he does. He has the ability to formu- late an opinion of an issue through logical and insightful reasoning. The opinion is his own. Education fosters self-reliance, and yet it is the antithesis of isola- tion. It possesses intrinsic value which indirectly works to im- prove everything that people do.” Mrs. Mary Kopy — secretary “The students are all terrific.” Mr. Euclid Lague — language ‘May the fine tradition of aca- demic excellence at Classical High School which has given the school such a fine reputation down through the years long endure.” Mr. Francis Lamoureaux — science ‘The greatest cycle of all is the cycle of Life with its recurrent themes of birth, growth and death. As a teacher, I have always found stimulation and excitement in helping students to move for- ward to the birth of new ideas, to new ways of looking at the world and at their own behavior. I exult as I see my students grow and move forward with confidence in their own powers of self discip- line. As each school year comes to a close, it is a little bit like the passing of a dear friend — but I am comforted to know, that it is just a new beginning for the Classical graduates who leave us each June.” Mrs. Helen Landry — language “It’s really nice to be back at Classical! I started here in 1969- 70 as along-term substitute.’ Mr. Stephen LeClair — history “In America the young are always ready to give to those who are older than themselves the full benefits of their inexperience.”’
