English Miss Churchill smiles as she notes the varied expressions on the faces of her 4th period English students. They are listening to a recording of Chaucer’s Canterbury Tales.

HARRISON’S DEANS MR. PHILIP V. CASTELLI Upon Graduation from Harrison High School, Mr. Castelli entered Pace College and he then transferred to the Syracuse School of Business where he received his B.S. degree. He enrolled in graduate courses at New York University, Columbia School of Education and Syracuse University. From the latter he received his Master’s degree in Education. Mr. Castelli was a teacher of business courses at Harrison High School prior to his present position as Dean of Boys. After teaching in the Mamaroneck Adult Education Program for two years, he served as director of a similar program in Harrison for the next nine years. Says Mr. Castelli, “Upon graduation from high school, it matters little whether a student attends col- lege or enters business, for in either case, he is af- forded the opportunity to learn. Graduation only sig- nifies a beginning of the road to knowledge; a student learns whether it is through formal education or bus- iness.” MISS MARY E. LALLY Miss Lally, a graduate of the College of New Ro- chelle, obtained her M.A. degree and her preparation for guidance counseling at Columbia University. Prior to her present position as Dean of Girls at Harrison High School, Miss Lally spent one year as a private sec- retary in Connecticut. During the summers she has worked at the Westchester Country Club or at various day camps. Says Miss Lally about the Class of 1963, “This year’s graduating class is the first to complete four full years of accelerated study. Those students who have attained acceleration in math, science, and lan- guages are to be commended for their excellent pur- suits.” Mrs. G. DeMacy, Secretary
