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.

Personal Or Private In most schools teachers are looked upon as individ- ual kings who look after their own domain with little regard for the affairs of others. However, in Di- vine Child, teachers do not teach merely because it is their job but because they enjoy making the school one of community accomplishment. A general air of involvement and social correspondence seems to make the difference between our faculty and the faculties of other schools. Where else do you see teachers at sports events, behaving like the rest of the enthusiastic onlookers—wild and spirited? How often can you find instructors who give so much of their time to promote the students’ talents with re- gards to plays, concerts, and publications? Nowhere will you find such a mutual respect than here. In this day and age where educators are look- ing for ways to answer the questions of today’s youth one should look to Divine Child, for it is here where teachers and students have found the answer—mutual involvement.
