The GLlIdII1 Light of School Life TEACHE R'S CREED I believe in boys and girls the men and women of a great tomorrow that whatsoever the boy soweth the man shall reap I believe in the curse of ignorance, ln the efficacy of schools, in the dignity of teaching and in the Joy of serving others I believe in wisdom as revealed in human l1ves as well as in the pages ofthe printed book, in lessons taught, not so much by precept as by example, in ability to work with the hands as well as to think with the head in everything that makes 11fe large and I believe m beauty in the schoolroom in the home, in daily life, and out of doors I believe in laughter, 1n love, in falth, in all 1deals and dis tant hopes that lure us on I believe that every hour of every day we receive a Just re ward for all we do and all we are I believe in the present and its opportunities, 1n the future and its promises, and in the divine Joy of l1v1ng Edwin Osgood Grover O I 0 O -I . , , . . . . .

uide All School Affairs .,gf.-af Mr. Ben Shaver, Executive Head of the Hillsdale School District, received his B.A. from Muskingum College and his Master's Degree in Education from Ohio University. He also attended a School Manage- ment Institute in 1963. Public education at the Crossroads! Public educa- tion is at a very important crossroad in Ohio. Winds of change have created an undercurrent of turbulence which, if continued unabated, will change the total image of public education as we know it today. Strong forces are working to establish public school districts in Ohio of 25, 000 to 35, OOO pupils with broad curriculum offerings designed to prepare students for the many types of employment available today. Many educators feel that great dangers exist if schools and curriculums are designed purely from a point of economic operation, and whether each student has a marketable skill upon graduation, without giving due regard to the education of the total child. The administration at Hillsdale subscribes to the firm belief that each student must be educated as an in- dividual with proper emphasis placed on morality, hon- esty, principles of good citizenship, the appreciation of heritage and the inherent worth of the individual. We further believe that personal happiness and satisfaction in accomplishment are much more important to each individual than the amount of financial return. May each of you feel that your years at Hillsdale have made a worthy contribution as you prepare for life. Mr. Ben Shaver We must show respect for both our philosophers and our plumbers or neither our pipes nor our philosophy will hold water. --- John Gardner Hillsdale High School is organized to foster, rec- ognize and respect success wherever its students are ac- tive. The faculty is ever alert to the interests, ability and progress of the individual student. Much thought and effort is expended to provide the opportunity for each student to discover and develop his individual tal- ent. The opportunity to experience success in the dis- covery and development of one's talent is an obligation of the community and a challenge to the youth of the community. The community is doing much to meet this obligation. The youth of the community are doing an admirable job of responding successfully to this op- portunity. One only needs to look through the Echo to find recorded many of the happy moments of success Hillsdale students experience. Each of these moments of success becomes even more valuable as the years pass and one success builds upon another. Congratulations to the Echo Staff on the very suc- cessful 1967 book. Mr. Gene Yeater Mr. Gene Yeater, principal, attended Ashland College and received his Bachelor of Science Degree in Education from Kent State University.
