 Round the dock No matter how many things you were involved with in school, you knew you were there to learn. You struggled for knowledge that would get you ahead in life. It wasn’t easy. Work, sports, and a social life all competed for time. But, you had help. You began to appreciate a teacher’s efforts. You realized it took patience and creativity to make learning possible. Your parents were another resource. They proofread your essays, drilled you for tests, and relearned physics to explain it to you. Even your friends became a source of information. You found working with an equally confused peer helped make problems easier. But when it came to it, learning was up to you. School gave you the opportunity to learn. The difference in learning came from using your resources. It was never easy, but you always knew you could handle it - with a little help.

You dreamt of victories just as others before you had. Maybe your dreams came true, and maybe they did not. Win or lose, you were part of something special. You were a part of the tradition. You made this tradition a Visible Difference. To know that hundreds of people had practiced on the same field, or wore the same uniform gave you a sense of pride ... A pride felt by athletes who knew they were part of a unmatched tradition. Senior Paul Galchutt said, I think ability has a lot to do with performance, but school pride has equal importance.’’ With two of the top boys’ gymnasts, a State bound cross country team, and a football team in the playoffs, you showed your dedication and pride by the records you posted.
