Poth High School - Log Yearbook (Poth, TX)

Text from Pages 1 - 88 of the 1955 volume:

DEDICATION We, the Seniors of 1954-1955, wish to dedicate this annual to the High School teachers who have helped and advised us through the four years of our high school education. We thank you for your kindness and the interest you have shown in our problems. We wish this annual to be a token of our appreciation. SUPERINTENDENT’S MESSAGE Every student body, while composed in part of previous student bodies, is a separate and distinct group. Its leaders are usually the followers of past groups. Its composition is that of boys and girls with new ambitions, aims, attitudes and abilities. You the student body of 1954-55 are typical in some respects and exceptional in others. You have been excep- tionally gifted with an abundance of ambition and high re- solve. Your abilities have been a pleasant surprise to your teachers. Your accomplishments have been admirable to our entire community. To me you are Tops. ” Good Luck! J. W.
