Thank you committee members for asking me to pre¬ sent a message to be recorded in the 1967-’68 Yearbook. I congratulate you on a fine effort that has produced this book. I am certain that it will be well received by all who will take the time to read it. It is with some trepidation that an educator today ac¬ cepts an opportunity to speak, for fear that the ideas he expresses are slipping into obsolescence at the very time that they are born. Yes, the word “change” in the recent past has almost become an obsession with some educators. It is, therefore, my message to all concerned with Edu¬ cation in the Garden Valley School Division that we might not be overwhelmed to a degree that will see us com¬ promise, in this dilemma of change, those values in life which edify man as a being created in the image of God. But in our aspirations to preserve those things which are dear to us it is also a challenge not to become complacent about our achievements and to believe that the new vistas ushered in by the changing world can have nothing better to offer than what we already have, this would be sheer folly. It is true that in the last few years man’s achievements in Science and Technology seem to have no limits and that man’s relentless search for material success has brought him the things he desires. And yet, there seems to be a greater, more urgent quest in man today than the one for material gain — it is the search for purpose and meaning to life. I seem to sense among the students in this school a spirit of anticipation and preparedness or willingness to meet this challenge — let me encourage each one of you to set your goal to do just this. In doing this you will dispell some of the frustrations that beset you in this fast changing world and you will come to rea¬ lize that it is not a matter of keeping up with everything that is happening but a matter of being involved and a matter of putting forth an effort and a willingness to con¬ tribute each day of your talents and abilities to meet the tasks that come your way. Then you will begin to exper¬ ience real achievement. To all students in the Collegiate 1 say take courage and make this a year of personal success and to those who are looking forward to being in the 1968 Graduating Class I would urge you — let your desire and determin¬ ation take you there. My sincerest wish for each one of you is God’s richest blessings in your personal life. Henry Neufeld 8
