Any traveler, in order to reach his destination, must follow a definite route, selected from several choices available to him. His decision regarding his choice of route is based on information and advice available to him. It is the same with us as we travel our various paths. We not only gain much from others who have traveled before us, but we profit also from our own past experiences. We should carefully consider the advice, information, and experiences of others as well as our own so that we may choose the correct route as we approach each crossroad in our lives.

 Every year sophomores come and seniors leave each having passed another milestone in his life. Even though the students come and go, the faculty remains faithful to the school —a special port of our building itself. It is this body of willing people that we owe so much to as we meet the Crossroad between childhood and the adult world. We shall always remain indebted to those who guided and taught us during our awakening to maturity. As the years pass and faces change, many heart-warming memories of the long-gone experiences with teachers will prevail in our minds.
