A Message from the Principal. . . WE ARE BUILDING During the year, we have had an op- portunity to observe many of the details which are an essential part of any con- struction. Many of you played ot Big Hill and felt a little sad when the bull- dozers pushed back the underbrush, in preparation for the loads of bricks and materials that were to be used by skilled hands and minds to construct Oscar From- mel Smith High School. This building became a reality because the people of South Norfolk had a dream, -a desire to give you young people the best they could to help you build. You, with the assistance of many, are building your future. Each day you are be- coming that man or woman you will face in the mirror of life. .lust as the building was constructed brick by brick, you are ad- ding to your life by daily decisions. Strong physical bodies, keen minds, skilled hands, trustworthy character, and respect for God are worked for and require conscious ef- fort. We are building as long as we are priv- ileged to live. Are we like the workman who considered his job iust cutting stone or are we building a cathedral? We can build the kind of older person we desire to be. How are you progressing with your building? r . IQ' In 8 May I present Mr Story our Superintendent of Schools 5 Ihe opening day ceremony is under way while in the back
