MR. KUJATH PRINCIPAL ' S MESSAGE A tremendous satisfaction is to be gained in doing a job well. Excellent workmanship is rewarded tangibly by industry and commerce, yet a pride of accomplishment is often a sufficient reward in itself for our efforts. I hope that your endeavor at school will be associated with this thrill of accomplishment. Your good work at school will prepare you for your later occupational opportunities. These opportunities will come to everyone, but only those will succeed who have sufficient ability and knowledge and those who have trained themselves to do their jobs well. The mere fact that you were enrolled in High School indicates that you have average or more than average ability. The fact that you passed your grades would indicate that you are amassing knowledge that may be used as a tool in success. But the matter of training yourself to do your best is also very important. Your success in school has been dependent to a large extent upon the attitudes and habits you have established. You have learned to be industrious, to co-operate, to be self-reliant, and to be dependable. These character traits will help you in your future work whether it be at school or in your chosen profession. Practice them. These habits are just as important as the facts you have learned, the learning process is just as significant as the learning.
