Yearbook Message Graduating Class 1984 Administration The theme of the ’84 Yearbook sets the mood of the composite of thought that the Administration wishes to express to the Class of 1984. While graduation time is often a period of reflecting on the future, it may also provide a good opportunity for some reflection on the present. The receiving of your diploma is the result of four years that encompassed not only educa- tion, but many other aspects of your life and the lives of many others. To have reached this point of your high school success involved sacrifices, confron- tations, compromises and understanding. All of the forementioned took place with par- ents, teachers, friends and the school. All of the participants had your welfare in mind and your success as their goal. As you re- flect upon those four years a sincere act of appreciation by you to all who helped you would be appropriate. When you reflect upon what you have accomplished during your high school years, certainly a pat on the back is well deserved by you. In looking ahead to the future, reflect on the lessons you learned from the past, the satis- faction of achievement of the present and the confidence of success in the years ahead. Congratulations to the Graduating Class of 1984 of Portsmouth High School. Mr. Henry V. Dtodati Superintendent of Schools Mr Michael W Mello Director of Instruction Mr Mancieri, Director of Administrative Services Mr Robert A DeRobbio Principal Mr John M Ferreira.
