A LETTER TO A FRIEND OE ELEVEN YEARS Dear Friend: The high school faculty voted to dedicate the 1986 Maroon and Gold to Mr. Roy Holland, an individual who has implemented, directed, and enforced the educational policies of the Board of Education for the past 11 years as principal of G. H. S. We want you to know that for over a decade, we feel you have been a successful leader. You have encouraged your staff to excell. You instilled in GHS students that there is a limit to their achievement, but none to their attempt. We don't want to tell you what you have done for eleven years! Why say - You took us through Middle States, you refined our grading policy or that you enforced our disciplinary code to the letter ,' because to you, it was the only way to get the job done. A job that you took pride in doing, a job that was executed with a genuine concern for all involved. One simply need to look at GHS and know that doing your years of service you made us realize that the surest way to fail is to be determine to succeed - to master that preeminent road to success. As you leave your family of students, teachers and parents, we want you to know we appreciate the time, accomplishments and efforts you expended upon us. We realize that one of your secrets of success was your constancy to purpose. You frequently said, someone must be the heavy, and in so doing taught us to accept respnsibility for our failures as well as for our successes. We will miss that someone-that person who had an opened-door policy, that person who at times had to say 'no', but ten minutes later could greet you with a smile. Your 11 years will become a challenge to us. A challenge to continue to uphold and improve the educational enrichments you gave us. A challenge to always think positive and to plan ahead! As you retire, leave us knowing: you have given us the formula for success in enriching the minds of our youth, and that you have our appreciation for the service you rendered as you so amicably fulfilled the job of principal of Glassboro High School from 1975 to the present. Adieu, The GHS Family
