Wolf Your Board of Education's ultimate obiective has been cmd will continue to be 'to advance our youth as far and as fast toward responsible adulthood as individual pupil aptitude and teacher insight will permit,' But excellence in education does not iust happen, it must be diligently pursued. We believe the fac- tors that will determine our eventual education re- sults are these: I. The intellectual curiosity and attitude of our youth, 2. The excellence of our faculty and administration, 3. The support of our community through both personal and financial effortsp 4. The adequacy of our physical facilities. These principles, reflecting the aspirations of the community, provide the guidelines of the future for Homewood-Flossmoor High School. - Homewood- Flossmoor High School Board of Education. Claire V.
