Preface lt is difficult to believe that time has passed so quickly. and that we. the Class of Fl. are at the threshold of an entirely new sort of life. Before we begin on that long road ahead. let us pause and recall our four years at Highland High School. In a sense. as our theme points out. our high school days were spent in country style. XYc are fortunate to have had such a carefree and sheltered high school career. Away from the noisy. bustling city. we have cemented priceless friend- ships with other students and with our teachers. Perhaps the city has its ad- vantages. but here in Highland, there has been a marvelous closeness. a warm- ncss. that could NUI have occurred in a large city school. XYe should always remember this. and be proud of it. Now that we are leaving high school. we are saddened. There is much ahead of us. the road will be far from easy. and there will no longer be the sheltered wings of our school. We will have decisions to make-important ones. but now we will no longer have the friendly advice and understanding guidance of our teachers. .Xlany of us will take separate roads that perhaps may never cross again. Yet wc will have one thing in cominon-we will always have wonderful memories of our youth in Highland High School. These happy memories and the experience gained from carefree days will serve as an invaluable aid for us in solving the problems of the future. Before we leave. we wish to express our sincere appreciation and gratitude to those people who have helped in preparing us to be better citizens in the world we are about to face. These people will make up an important part of the price- less memories that we will carry with us on our trip to successful adulthood. To serve as a reminder of these matchless days. we present the 1951 Echo , and we hope that it will bring many hours of happy reminiscence. Ifditor-In-Chief ,,....,-y
