1111 Careful Coordinators Joseph P. McDonough This Yearbook, the result of a great deal of effort on the part of your fellow students, serves primarily as a reminder of several years of your life. I hope that these years have been meaningful ones for you. I hope they have helped you to adjust to a very complex society. Experiences become meaningful to us when we place them in perspective. If a review of this book evokes some nostalgia, I hope it also causes some reflection on your part. This reflection enables us to see oursel ves as we grow, it enables us to place our experiences in perspective and it provides direction for the future. In short, you learn from your experiences if you reflect on them. —Joseph P. McDonough, Principal Michael A. Azzolino Vice-Principal Anna Colnaghi Assistant Principal 10

Busy Benefactors George W. Hodgins Paramus High School continues to grow as we plan for additions to our school which will encompass the results of continuing studies for education in our changing society. Man is advancing so rapidly that new knowledge and technology confront him before he has fully understood past achievements. One must run fast to keep abreast of developments. Probably nowhere does this rapid change present greater problems than in education. It is evident that the generation now in school will spend its adult years in a society that probably will be as radically different from todays as the society of the sixties is from that of the early twentieth century. Tremendous implications of the rapid changes are much in evidence. Results of research and experimentation and close attention to innovation must play an important part in planning an educational program and school facilities that will provide a flexibility allowing for the changes that will inevitably occur in our education of tomorrow. Opportunities for service and leadership are numerous. Will we accept the challenge? —George W. Hodgins, Superintendent of Schools Young people, completing high school today, face a future of challenge. Truly, graduation from high school is surely only the beginning. Each person must continue in a formal program of education or set up an informal program for his own growth. Our minimum program for all must involve self-education through the communication media — radio, television, newspapers, magazines, and current literature. On-the-job training programs will be necessary for everyone to meet the demands of the changing times no matter what level of formal education he has received. High school training should be regarded as only a preparation for this further education. I extend my sincere congratulations and best wishes to all the graduates of the Class of 1964. —William V. Dunn, Assistant Superintendent of Schools William V. Dunn Ralph J. Mele Assistant to Mr. Hodgins 9
