Hoboken High School - Trojan Yearbook (Hoboken, GA)

Text from Pages 1 - 62 of the 1956 volume:

DEDICATION In our four years together we have seen Hoboken High School rise to recognition as one of the finest schools in the state. The person who has given all of his interest and abilities in leading us to our present high standing is our Principal, Mr. Cleve Jones. We of the Senior Class of 195o affectionately dedicate this volume of the Trojan to him. Many times in our four years of striving toward this, our final year of high school, it has been his kind understanding and help that has made our way easier and more enjoyable. Words of dedication are all too inadequate when we seek to say, Thank you Mr. Jones! ANNUAL STAFF BOARD MEMBERS This Page is Sponsored By The FARMERS MUTUAL EXCHANGE MRS. EVA KATE ELLIS B.
