l V We han ide leading ,mafeaadam Few men exert more influence than does a teacher. It is he Who, through his ability to excite the imagination of youth, molds the mind, character, and personality of the future citizen. It is indeed fortunate that throughout the length and breadth of America there are today many hundreds of men and Women who are devoting their efforts to fighting ignorance, to imparting knowledge in a clear, thorough, and systematic man- ner. It is to these individuals, who have themselves searched for truth and are Working with consecrated effort to reveal it to others, that We dedicate this book. Such teachers have the capacity to train us up in the Way We should go , to make us understand the beauty and mys- tery of life, and to inspire us to ever great- er efforts toward our ideals. They are our models, showing us what our lives can beg supervisors, directing our efforts into con- structive channels, and friends, acceptors of our confidences and problems. Because of all that We owe to them this book is, at best, an inadequate tribute, but We, the Class of l959, offer it with grati- tude and sincerity.

The School Board, composed of fifteen members, is an elected body Whose duties are to formulate educational policies, to exercise general supervision over regular and extra-curricular activities, and, through taxation, to provide the Where- Withal for the operation of the schools. Every fourth Thursday of the month the meeting is called to order in the new Collegeville-Trappe Elementary School. Standing committees on property, finance, teachers, and supplies do much of the Work, but final action is taken by the entire Board. To these public-spirited citizens who serve without pay and give their time so freely to the service of the community, the Class of 1959 extends its sincere thanks. SCHOOL BOARD Row 1: Harley A.
