George W Wingate High School - Mosaic Yearbook (Brooklyn, NY)

Page 9 text:

FQREWQRD Mosaic once again makes its annual bow to bespeak the role of Wingate in the light of the young hopefuls committed to its care. Though the manifold advantages of a Wingate education would appear obvious to the student reader, it will bear detail- ing for the benefit of all. Wingate trains a student in every essential and vital aspect -his mind, his personality, his body and finally his future as a useful citizen in the community. A student is familiarized and made to feel thoroughly at home with the wide range of academic subjects that make up a high school curriculum. Thus, the earnest student is pre- pared for any academic or commercial course he may enter upon graduation. Our Wingate man is encouraged to create and express his inborn leanings through the medium of many artistic outlets. The classes he can attend in literary composition, painting, drama and industrial arts, afford these opportunities for crea- tive originality. One cannot hope for success in life if one is not socially adjusted and cannot make and hold friends. Wingate's con- genial class associations based on common study or hobby interests, stimulate group effort and social adaptation. An advantage that cannot be stressed too strongly is the cultivation of the student's sense of service. All useful, worth- while functions of a socially adjusted citizen in the com- munity of men, are those based on service. The tradesman, professional, employee, and government official are giving a service. The Wingater is guided in the path of service to his school, his classmates, and his community. This sense is heightened in the Junior Red Cross, Human Relations Club, the school paper, and other activities. By participation in the latter as voluntary assistants, aids, helpers and contributors, the vital lesson of service is brought home to the young boy or girl. Let us join in a well earned salute to Wingate where raw youngsters are moulded into men and women who will make this an even better America-a light for the nations and an ideal of liberty and democracy.

If I ' Our Principal, Dr. Colvin, in the new lVlinna Colvin Student Lounge, contemplates his February to June Latin-American vacation trip. At the entrance to our school building, the newcomer and the daily comer to Wingate meet the invitation of our mosaic, brightly colored and strikingly patterned. This other Mosaic of yours, graduates, marks a step in the achieve- ment of that promise and its extension into the years ahead. I took my power in my hand, an American poet of yesterday wrote, recognizing in each of us the daring of the long ago David, setting out in our times equipped with symbolic pebble. lVlan with the sky in his head, a prize-winning poet calls us in the imagery of our day.
