Hicksville High School is a place where we can experience our country's past. Watching the au- thentically dressed fife and drum corps march with flags allows us to perceive life as it was when our nation began. Listening to the bicentennial music of the Symphonic Wind Ensemble helps us to return to the exciting birth of America. Each of us celebrates the Bicentennial in his or her own way — owning a Spirit of '76 candle or decorating the High School's front window with flags and pictures from 1776. DREAMS 7

Let today embrace the past with remembrance, And the future with longing. Kahlil Gibran As we remember our years in elementary school when we made believe we were famous people and imagined rocks were forts, we wish time could take us back.Perhaps as the Founding Fathers quarreled over the Declaration of Independence, they, too, wished time could take them back to the days when they had no worries. At the same time, they dreamed about and hoped for a new nation. 6 DREAMS
