To the Class of 1961 I would like to express to each member of your class and to your families my congratulations on your successful comple- tion of your work at Warren Kaynor. I hope that each one of you will realize that while you have gotten a good foundation from your school, it is just the foundation on which you must build. You can do this by your eagerness to learn on the job, by advice from those with whom you will work, by alert observation and an inquiring mind, by your willingness to do more than the minimum which the job calls for, and by taking advantage of educational oppor- tunities available to you in your community. I hope also that you will take part in community activities, that you will accept responsibility, that you will contribute more than your share to your family. If you do some of these things you can be sure that you will have a contented and satisfactory life. With ever)' good wish to each and all of you. Emmett O’Brien Director Division of Vocational Education The completion of the education and training program at the Kaynor Technical School by the members of the Class of 1961 deserves special recognition. Graduates of the Kaynor Technical School have achieved a much higher degree of ability to do things than is true of the average high school graduate. Your instructional program has also provided you with a background of knowledge which enables you to understand and interpret as well as perform. It is the hope of your teachers and your parents also that with this combination of skill and knowledge will go a desire to add a third characteristic, the desire to serve. Service will mean combining your skill and knowledge to do things in the best possible way to help your employer and your com- munity in general. We believe that your training and your attitudes will produce this spirit of service which will reflect credit on you and your school. R. W. Howes Assistant Director Division of Vocational Education 12
