I 1 'frifnriaf T N W ' w Q W We, who are about to leave these hallowed halls to make our mark in the world, take a last, nostalgic look around and wish for a brief moment that it all didn't have to be ending so soon. Our personalities and everlasting friendships were formed here, never to be forgotten, only to be changed as we age with the pass- ing years. Within the portals of P.C.S. we have known laughter and fun, we have seen despair and tragedy, we have gained know- ledge and inspiration, and we have sensed beauty and solitude. Herein we shed the cloak of childhood, never again to be as com- pletely without responsibility as we once were. Our years in high school were, for the most part, happy ones. We did have our setbacks and disappointments, but we can credit them to being a part of growing up. Perhaps we didn't always live up to expectations, but that, too, can be blamed on inexperi- ence. All in all, we have learned from our failures never to make them again, and, as the years pass, we shall have only memories by which to recall the irresponsibility of our youth. The close associations with the teachers, possible only in small schools, the extra-curricular activities, which provided hours of fun and relaxation, the plays and band concerts, our im- portant forms of entertainment, last minute cramming to sink or swim on tomorrow's exams, and our ignored complaints about this and that, will take their places in our memories, along with the precious adolescent friendships. Thank you, P.C.S., for helping us to become the individuals we have become, with a true sense of moral honesty and character. Thank you for the precious years we have known and lost to another generation. Thank you for helping us to grow up.
