f- nncipal A i v le66aae At the end of my rirst year at Oliver Stephens Sernor- ' x llc Scnoo ! I look back upon a year that has been uniqae for r e. After- oe-r-vi-- as ' ' principal of three different rural schools, I find myself in ' a . u ' ban setting for the first time. VJhether students are ' urban or- -u-al tbe-r have many similar needs. These needs include a sense of achievement ' ' acceptance by one ' s peers and teachers, a stimulating school r)roeT.pr. ' n-ne- sented by concerned teachers and a pleasant environj-ent .-hp-r.A ' one ' av ' study and learn. ' - -- - J Our facilities are second to none in the county. V.Tiile other ' s -uffer- xn the heat, we enjoy air-conditioning. We have modem eauipment ' and capable, irell-qualified teachers. Do you, as students, make ' rMa:--;n urn u-e of the facilities and the teachers who are available to you? iiave you made the most of yo-ui ' year in Oliver Stephens School? The only fail-ures are those who must ansv er no to those questions. To the graduating class, it is my ' earnest desire that each of -re- work towards a worthwhile goal and that each vail attain sone degree o: success. Your parents and teachers can only provide assistance and guidance. You alone can determine the degree of success by the -oV ' ..- and determination n.th which you face the future. ■■ -- - To our younger students, may you continue to mature and to acouir-e knowledge m the coming years. You now become our senior student bod and the successes and failures of next year in Oliver Stephens School ' ' ar-e to some extent dependent upon your dedication to the tasks assigned. Do L. Laur, Principal. Uice ' f- n nncipai This year, ray first at Oliver Stephens, I ha-. ' e come into contact ' ri.th hundreds of intelligent, serious and socially av;are students. Ihc successes of our school relate directly to their responsible :: ' .a;i:iCr, their contagious enthusiasm and their ability to work very hard. The students, as v ell as the dedicated staff of --liver Stepr.ens Senior Public School have contributed to my satisfaction, pleasiu-e and professional d.evelopment. If everyone connected v ith our school has benefited from their experiences as much as I have benefited from mine then a great deal ind.eed. has been accomplished, t his year. I would, like to v;ish everyone continued success in the p.u ' s.iit o ' their goals. Thanlv you. :. Bellinger, Vice-: rinclEal.
