School Some people had a dream once,-long ago. Not a dream of riches and fame, but a dream of a school:-a place within which those who seek knowledge and truth could find it. Those pioneers of education probably never imagined to what enormous extents their dreams would be realized. They could not live to see the schools of today rising magnificently against the skies. Schools with not only the minimum requirements of teachers and classrooms, but with countless other facilities and workers. striving to produce an educated citizenry. Simon Gratz High School is only one of these schools, but it is our school, and we cannot help feeling that somehow it is the goal of those first educators. Simon Gratz-with a heart of learning that will live when all around her has crumbled into dust. Simon Gratz - our school. our friend. Who could have known so long ago that the schools of today would be producing the defenders of democracy? Who could have visualized the graduates of today going forth to serve their country in time of war? Who had that foresight- that understanding? We cannot say. We do not know for sure, but whoever they were: wherever they may be today, we are sure that they must be smiling and well satisfied with the fruits of their labors- with Simon Gratz High School. sw . . . . ,n.,--mf.-,: .
