Pitkin High School - Tiger Yearbook (Pitkin, LA)

Text from Pages 1 - 104 of the 1966 volume:

In deep appreciation for his unfailing courtesy to everyone, his understanding of our problems, his tireless helpfulness to small and great, his service with any sort of difficulty, his patience with our errors, his resourcefulness when we need advice, his brisk efficiency in his duties, his sense of humor in trying situations, his friendly sociable manner, his untiring work and unselfish sacrifices; and for his sincerity and loyalty, and because we love him and appreciate his assistance through these years at Pitkin High School, We dedicate this volume of the Pitkin High School TIGER to Mr. B. R. Harvey. Thanks to a 'grand' principal and coach.' The Yearbook Staff Our Principal Mr. B. R. Harvey School Faculty MR. HARVEY MRS. BUXTON Principal Librarian MRS. CAIN MRS. CLOUD MRS. COLEMAN MR.
