Northern High School - Spirit Yearbook (Port Huron, MI)

There’s a place in the Sun . . . For us, there will always be a sea- son warmed by rays emitted from the sun; a season of knowledge and understanding, a season of friendship and hope. Most impor- tant is the season of spirit, which is the very foundation which Northern is built upon. For all of us, there is a time and purpose to be sought. If a light should ap- pear faint and not within our grasp, and should memories fail, this purpose will always bind us together. Our common bond will be built upon a desire to strive for what appears unattainable, to carry the heavy load when others find it burdensome, and to search for truth. Because of the high stan- dards we have set as patriots of Port Huron Northern High School, it is inevitable that each of us shall find his place in the sun.
