Through our high school careers we have watched the Eagle become a tradition, The fine record our school has compiled under the Eagle banner has been broad in scope - honors have been taken in the field of sports and academic endeavor. Our record shows that we as students have taken the Eagle and what it stands for to heart. Thus, it becomes the inspiration, the strength -------- Dedication The theme of the yearbook of 1960 is symbolic representative of Frankenmuth High School, the strong, sturdy, striking American Eagle, Thus, in dedicating the Eyrie to the Eagle we dedicate it to all students of the Frankenmuth school system past and present.
