A MESSAGE FROM OUR SUPERINTENDENT To our patrons, student body, and faculty: We are pleased to present “The Gotebo Chieftain” our first year- book. 1947-48. 1 want to congratulate and thank the entire annual staff and the faculty advisors for the excellent job they have done. It is the result of the untiring efforts and co-operation of the entire staff, student body, facility, patrons, and business men which is typical of the Gotebo Comm- unity. It is an inspiration to work with and serve where such a wonderful spirit of co-operation prevails. I am thankful for such an opportunity. In your observations of the contents of this book which portrays in part the program of your school, ever bear in mind that every accomp- lishment, whether it be mental, moral, social, or physical, is the result of the co-operation of our good patrons, worthy student body, and capable faculty under the direction of your Board of Education, who gave so freely of their time and effort for the good of our school. So in conclusion, let us keep in mind that the child for whom the school was instituted is mental, moral, social, and physical. Consequently our program has for its pur- pose the creating of the opportunity for every child's development and growth in keeping with the great ideals and principles upon which our great nation is builded, “Democracy founded on the true principles of Christianity.' The demands of this new age are great. So let us continue the fine spirit of co-operation of all the forces for good in our community so that it may be made a better place in which to live. May God Bless us in our effort. 1 am with every good wish Your servant,
