THIS IS NOW SCHOOL DAY MEMORIES As we reach out our hand the diploma we grasp. While we think of the memories Of the years in the past. Tears fill our eyes Because it's all gone, We re starting a new life We have to move on. We hope friends will keep in touch As the years pass us by. Although it hurts inside We ll try not to cry. We think of kindergarten And our first day. Now we've reached the end We are going away. How do you say good-bye To friends who mean so much? Will there be time To sincerely keep in touch? You'll always have the memories Of your school years from day one. Don't think of school as ending Think a new life has begun. Does this phrase sound familiar to you, well if it does, you should realize that this was the title of a song sung by the Monkees this past summer. We found this song title fitting for a yearbook theme, because it indicates a change, and our school is changing in many ways, like us high school students have changed a lot since we first started school. We will always face change throughout our lives and so will our school once we all graduate. You may not realize that our school has changed, but it has undergone a drastic change from previous years, and each and every one of these changes is making, and will continue to, our school even better. We, the yearbook staff at Oakfield High School, made this yearbook so that we could capture the memories and the changes that our school has experienced, so that you, the students and teachers of Oakfield High school, will remember how this school has touched all of our lives. We hope that when you have finished reading and paging through this book that you will remember all of the good times we have experienced in this our very own school and we hope that you too will be proud of Oakfield High School. And it is our wish that the future yearbook staffs will be able to capture the memories and changes that will face our school and students in the years to come. 2
