. -117 Following the euphoric 50th Anniversary year activities of i973- 74 experienced by thousands of Grant students, teachers and par- ents, the administration had to turn its attention to a new and a somber challenge brought about by national economic conditions. The administrative staff began early to prepare and plan with the faculty and parents the adiustments necessary to bring the school's resources within the budgetary limits set by the school- board and the superintendent. The spirit of cooperation and unity by our excellent staff and community has prevailed to the extent that this new challenge is being met head-on with the determination typical of the community. Having led Portland's urban schools in the areas of human rela- tions, communications with the community, innovative and diversi- fied programs, teacher development and evaluation, and in devel- opment of a unique administrative structure consisting of four class centers the administration is confident Grant High School will meet the new Challenge without endangering its many productive and successful programs. The philosophy of open dialogue and participation of those affected on maior issues and decisions will continue to be the basis for Grant's approach to any and all challenges. Together with oth- ers of the administrative support team, l am most appreciative of the overall attitude, conduct, and successes of Grant students. I extend to the graduation class of 1975 best wishes for continued success and happiness. To all the other students may l express the hope that they will continue to work toward graduation with increasing appreciation of and consideration for fellow Grantoni- ans and teachers. WW.. I3
