l l r V r l Language Arts The things taught in schools and colleges, Emerson wrote in his journal, are not an education, but the means of an education. The teachers in the Departments of Language Arts and Music are proud that you have achieved the first difficult step in developing both the means, which we call skills, and the desire to continue your education throughout your lifetime-to use your mind as a critical tool to question, consider, evaluate and appreciate. Continue to use your public library for pleasure and research, explore the vast resources of our great city: music, theater, arts, dance, and museums. Hold to the motto you chose for the class of '81 and use your skills, your minds, and your hearts to achieve fulfillment for yourselves, and to serve your community.

Health Education One in a Millioni' is a very appropriate way to describe the program in Health and Physical Education at Norman Thomas High School. Gur Health and Physical Education program has received national recognition as a model for the implementation of an instructional program that meets the mandates of Title IX tFederal Guide- linesj. Based on the concept of selectivity or choice, our students are given an opportunity to select their physical education course from the wide curriculum offerings of team sports, life-time sports, gymnastics, dance and special areas. This type of student input has led to a very high percentage of passing health and physical education. In addition, our Varsity Sports program for both boys and girls has produced champions that bring added recognition to the fine program offered at Norman Thomas HS. s'One in a Million -yes-a very appropriate theme for Health and Physical Education at Norman Thomas HS.
