MR. RICHARD N. HOLTER Chairman MRS. CHARLES W. CARTER Tradition and Spirit are nebulous matters. They are not like buildings, or equipment, or playing fields, or staff members. They are tremendously important, how- ever. They are the difference between a good school and a mediocre school; the difference between a school that is outstanding and one that is unknown. Longmeadow High School quickly developed outstand- ing spirit. Its athletic teams, its musical organizations, and its dramatic and literary activities have had excellent student and community support. It is developing a tradi- tion of high standards in scholarship and responsibility. As a school gets la rger and more impersonal, such qualities sometimes are lost. Let ' s all determine to do all we can to build the tradi- tion and maintain the spirit that will continue to make this high school outstanding. MRS. RUSSELL P. DALE, JR. MR. ROBERT BRIGHAM

FACULTY COUNCIL No organization, whether busi- ness, governmental or educational, can go far in the pursuit of excel- lence without effective internal communication of ideas. The Fac- ulty Council is essentially a com- munications center. All areas of our educational program send a representative to make up this group. Within this group the pres- ent and future educational needs of our students are discussed. Every recommendation for improvement or revision of our program is con- sidered, weighed, and debated at length in order that we may con- tinue to offer to the youth of Long- meadow the finest educational plan we can devise.

This year the Longmeadow High School Student Council continued its active participation in the life of our school. Two new and difficult tasks were undertaken. In the fall the Council held a Dad ' s Day, a day on which it invited all the fathers of football players to attend the Minnechaug game. At halftime, the fathers were honored by the performance of the band and drill team. The Council also sponsored an Alumni Reception in December, working toward the goal of forming an alumni organization from those classes that have graduated. The work for this reception was done by Meredith Mudgett, Pamela Stone, and Mary Alice Astaldi. The project rounded out a highly successful 1962-63 Student Council program.
