SUPERINTENDENT'S MESSAGE You are to be commended for attaining a most significant step in the pursuit of your purpose in life. Your school has endeavored to encourage and assist you in attaining these goals. Your parents and your church have played vital roles in your accomplishments to date. While I would strongly urge you to pursue your quest for relevance in our society, it would be my hope and conviction that this worthwhile objective would not be lost in a syndrome of purposeless rebellion. May I wish you every success, and urge you to re- tain your association with your school and your com- munity. R. E. DENNIS Superintendent A.B. Eastern Mich. U. M.A. U. of Michigan 4
