It represents the stage in the development when emotions, ideas, and attitudes begin to formulate and establish themselves. Every activity engaged in during the three years of high school— whether mandatory or voluntary— is a determining factor in who I will become. As each such influence is so vital, none should be overlooked or underestimated. This is precisely the purpose of our book: to show how the individual surfaces through contact with others and through involvement in the varied facets of high school life. As you page through this record of the year 1970-71, perhaps each aspect of this par- ticular stage in the development of the individual I will become more prominent, more memorable.
