IN APPRECIATION This year marks Mr. Weisse’s twenty-first year at North Read- ing High School; and his ac- complishments of the past years are just too numerous to men- tion. Although his efforts are often unacknowledged, they do not go unnoticed by the students and faculty at N.R.H.S. Thanks to Mr. Weisse’s instruction, the music department is proud to hold many awards from performances of Senior Concert Band, the Jazz Ensemble, and the Stagehand. One of the best marching bands in the Cape Ann League can be found practic- ing in the high school parking lot. The band has become a great asset to the town of North Reading. Football fans are proud to have them perform at half time. Mr. Weisse also coordinates the intricate marching patterns with the flag squad, the majorettes, and the color guard. The combination results in a spectacular per- formance. This year, because of scheduling problem s, Mr. Weisse performs magic as he teaches two classes during the same period. These classes, Chorus and Concert Band, combine to perform two concerts yearly. 6

Mr. Weisse not only runs the music program at the high school single-handedly, hut he is also the music coordinator for the en- tire school system of North Read- ing. As if this wasn’t enough, he also spends an endless amount of hours every Spring working on the annual musical. These are only some of the reasons why this yearbook is dedicated to you, Mr. Weisse. Your devotion to music has been an inspiration to your students and to the school. Sincere thanks from the Class of 1979. 7
