Childrey Award is considered the highest honor which a member of the graduating class can receive from Haddonfield lNIemorial High School. The award is based on scholarship, participation ill school activities, co-operation with the faculty, and friendliness with classmates. Judy Harckc's enthusiasm for learning and eagerness to serve her school have won the respect and friendship of classmates and the faculty. She inspired those who worked with her by exemplifying a fine quality of citizenship and leadership. By achieving the scholastic distinction of ranking second in the senior class Judy demonstrated her dedication to learning. This scholarship. as well as other outstand- ing qualities, led to her election as a member of the Honor Society in her junior year. She then served this organization as its secretary-treasurer. Classmates elected Judy vice-president of her junior class, secretary of the senior class., and a member of the student council for two years. The faculty voted to send her to New Jersey Girls' State as a delegate in her junior year. Because Judy served as co-editor of this fine yearbook, it is particularly fitting that she should receive this cherished award and hold an honored position within the Shield's pages. Judy enjoyed sports as she played junior varsity basketball and participated widely in the intramural program. As a spirited, dedicated cheerleader she helped inspire school spirit and support of athletic teams. Judy continues in her quest to serve people by selecting nursing for a future vocation. She carries with her the admiration and best wishes of many friends on the faculty and in the student body. Twenty-four
