Dedication SpiriT, alive and vibranT, The inTegral parT oT any and every school sysTemg The Torce ThaT makes Tor success, boTh TiguraTively and liTerally speakingg The power ThaT overcomes obsTacles reduces barriers, and creaTes undersTanding and sympaThy. New Rochelle l-ligh School, The epiTome oT progressiveness oT spiriT which knows iTs limiTs, may well serve as The obiecT oT The I94O Rochellean's dedicaTion. The relaTionship exisTing beTween sTudenT and Teacher, The liberal curriculum, boTh exTra and regular, and The unreserved supporT oT The municipaliTy have moulded wiThin The sTudenTs ThaT same spiriT oT progressiveness. This Teeling oT cooperaTion and advancemenT has been insTilled in The sTudenTs since Their TirsT conTacTs wiTh The New Rochelle public schools. IT has been builT up Through our school liTe and as graduaTes oT New Rochelle l-ligh School leT us carry high The Torch oT progressiveness. 44 44 C4 l-lereToTore, we have been resigned To our loT, regulaTing our personal iniTiaTive To The background, and accepTing, raTher Than pursuing, liTe. SecuriTy in school and home was The keynoTe oT our philosophy. Friendship and ideals were imbued wiThin us as a direcT resulT oT our environmenT. Our prescribed exisTence was bounded by school and Tamily wiTh securiTy insured Tor us. We were noT burdened wiTh responsi- biliTies and led a compararively unTroubled liTe. Cur years aT New Rochelle l-ligh School culminared This period. As sophomores, iuniors and seniors our days were exempliucied by The congenial congesTion in The lunch room: The Temporary respiTe Trom sTudies while Traversing The crowded corridorsy The elecTriTied sTillness oT The classrooms: The apprehensive aTTiTudes oT sTudenTs aT assemblies: The iabbering iovialiTy oT The locker room. This was our loT - now buT memories. We are enTering a new world-a world in which responsibiliTies and personal iniTiaTive play a viTal parT. The TuTure holds no place Tor The careTree exisTence we have known. And even Though Time may obscure our backward glances, we wanT To recall ThaT liTe, Tree Trom maior Troubles, and To This end, we presenT The l94O Rochellean, a Tangible reminder oT The New Rochelle l-ligh School. 7
