It Is The Prime Factor Of Success An average student spends 14,800 minutes a year in his life working academically; likewise, teachers every- where spend that amount of time presenting their sub- jects. But the knowledge gained through time devoted to work and study goes beyond that year. It gradually grows and develops, influenced by both personal experi- ences and more years containing those 14,800 minutes. It’s a vicious circle, and as each year in our life goes by we begin to realize the need we’ll place on those academic subjects. Maybe not just yet—not when there’s always that homework to do, those extra projects to make or the thought of today’s classes and then to- morrow’s. The knowledge we have gained will become a part of a continuing foundation within ourselves. We are constantly in pursuit of the ideals of academics— wisdom, truth, loyalty and honor. An investment in any of these in this year in our life always pays the best interest in years to come. 9

High Caliber Leadership Is The Primary Reason For Student Achievement TOP: An avid Falcon fan, Msgr. Wcier cheers the team on to victory. BOTTOM: Father Zerafa transforms Mass into an intimate experience. Throughout the entire 1967-68 school year, Divine Child students have been continually guided, taught, and disciplined by a capable and hard working staff. The administration this year had an abund- ance of the enthusiastic energy needed to keep one step ahead of the students. Monsignor Herbert Weier, the head of the whole ‘‘show” frequently visits the upperclassmen to an- swer questions and to help with problems. Despite a demanding schedule, he usually manages to en- liven an assembly with an amusing anecdote. Sister Gerald, gains the respect and admiration of the students and faculty with her zealous devotion and sympathetic understanding. Bearing the title of “Principal of the Year,” Sr. Gerald is satisfied only with the best for D.C. Father Cusmano, athletic director, has donated many long hours of assistance to the teams while Father Zerafa, our “quiet” priest, strives to give our Mass day an ever increasing personal effect. Both take part in the underclassmen religion classes. These few people serve the students of Divine Child High School well. It is their dedication which makes this year at Divine Child a high quality year.
