Lawrence High School - Lawrencian Yearbook (Cedarhurst, NY)

THE 1936 MR. LAWRENCE V. DODD came to Lawrence High School in 1928 and until 1934 was one of our most popular teachers. Then he deserted us to become Principal of Eastport High School. The lure of Lawrence, however, proved too strong and in 1935 he returned to use his great capabilities as Superintendent. mr. Cecil c. Macdonald has been Principal of Lawrence High School since it opened in 1913. His fine character, kind manner, and outstanding ability have made and will always make his name synonymous with that of the old school, to which our thoughts will ever turn.

LAWRENCIAN Oentiment is an emotion that is rather scorned nowadays, hut even the most sophisticated of us who are about to graduate feel a pang of sadness at the thought of leaving Lawrence High School to venture into the unknown future. In some inexplicable manner, the place in which we have spent most of our lives for four years becomes an integral part of our very being, and when we are separated from it, the loss is so deep and personal that it is just as if we were deprived of one of our limbs. Though it would be futile to attempt to express the feelings that exist within us, we nevertheless wish to leave some tangible souvenir by which future generations will be able to understand a little of what was in our hearts and minds. For this reason, and because we are the last class to graduate from this institution, we dedicate this, our annual— the sole record of our student days—to the old Lawrence High School.

LAWRENCIAN .MISS ELSIE R. TEFFT the Faculty Advisor of the Senior Class, has been associated with Lawrence High School since 1920, first as a teacher, then as Vice Principal. Without her it would have been impossible to publish an annual, and we hope that our gratitude compensates a little for all that she has done.
