Highlands High School - Brigadoon Yearbook (San Antonio, TX)

Page 7 text:

his has been the year of the Great Society -new faces, great events, trying events. Behind these events were strong people, force- ful people, important people. It will be a year not quickly forgotten. Naturally, not all events reached wo1'ld-wide proportions, nor did they involve only na- tionally renown figures. lt was also an event- ful year for Highlands. It began as all school years begin-with the proverbial clamor of students voicing opinions on topics ranging from civil rights to the Rolling, Stones. There were new projects and newer teachers, and somewhere, yet unknown, was a growing determination in each student. Football season began-spirits soared to heights unknown in the school's history. For many weeks an indescribable joy prevailed, hope shut out reality. But then came the end of the drive-when the students discovered glory can exist even in defeat. Students of Highlands sprang back, and an unfailing de- termination again appeared. A great nation evolves from those who dare to make it so. Highlands, a simplified nation, bears the description of greatness by its stu- dents-those who dared to contribute. As a building, Highlands is merely a million dollar architectural project. A school does, as a nation does, remains putty in the hands of those who bear the label of a Highlands student. It is to you, the students of Highlands, we dedicate this book, to you-the VIP's. Early in the year the drama depart- ment presented a. coat-of-arms to the school. As one of the few schools in the United States, and the only one in the city of San Antonio, Highlands bears this mark of distinction proudly.
