' IVY ORATION CusToms and TradiTions have a value in liTe and in school. The TacT ThaT class aTTer class aT Oakwood T-ligh School has gaThercd To planT The ivy, as we have gaThered here Today, gives every graduaTe oT The school a share in a common experience. Such an experience is a uniTing inTluence. Can we see more in This ceremony Than The mere planTing oT The ivy iTselT? l-low may The planT be compared To The members of our senior class, who are abouT To leave The school? As Ths ivy Today will begin To climb This wall, so shall we have To climb many a diTTiculT wall. JusT as This ivy will grow by clinging +igh+ To The wall, so should we use diTTiculTy as an opporTuniTy, and so cover iT and so masTer iT ThaT we change iT Trom iTs bare ugliness inTo beauTy. JusT as some branches OT This ivy will noT climb To The Top oT The wall, so some oT us will noT rise as high as oThersg buT we oughT To have The courage and The good sense To be proud oT having done our besT, insTead OT being envious oT Those who have surpassed us. As The ivy is a whole and compleTe vine, so is socieTy a whole: all oT us belong To iT. Those aT The Top and Those who have noT reached so high, are indispensable To each oTher. We who planT This ivy have given iT a chance, a chance To make iTs own TuTure. Our Teachers, all oT whom have made Oakwood High The school iT is, have given us our chance. From graduaTion on, iT is up To us. Our record will be The record oT The school: our success and our achievemenT will be The success and The achievemenT oT The school. We oughT never To TorgeT This. Our school will be judged by us, by whaT we are, by whaT we do, by The way we grow and Thrive on The wall oT diTTiculTies meT.
