that grandfatherly advice about life, which so many of us will long remember. As seniors, those of us considering careers in educa¬ tion had the opportunity to experience the classroom from the other perspective; this was through enrollment in Elementary School Seminar advised by Mr. Dunbar. Mr. Dunbar ' s contributions to our lives extend beyond the classroom. Through the dancing, acting, writing, and museum visiting of the METRO Pathways program, advised by him, some of us have been able to experience and begin to appreciate the vast cultural life and differences of Boston. His unrelenting spons¬ orship of the blood mobile has also deepened our appreciation of life. After thirty-one years of such dedication to the students of RMHS, Mr. Dunbar is retiring. We, the Class of ' 88, extend our thanks and dedicate Pioneer ' 88 to him. ;

Few members of the Class of ' 88 have not experienced Mr. Robert Dunbar. Many of us first met Mr. Dunbar when we were freshmen and enrolled in one of his classes or his study hall. With his kind and cheerful smile, he offered advice and gave us dir¬ ections through the maze of corridors which comprise the high school. During sophomore year, Mr. Dunbar became, for many of us, more than a friendly face; he fascinated us with his lectures and dis¬ cussions in U.S. History. After sophomore year rolled by and we had mastered history skills, even more of us encountered Mr. Dunbar in Human Behavior. There, beyond the curriculum, we were treated to 4 Dedication

The Class of ' 88 began its sophomore year with a low bank account and a new advisor. Without any prior experience but with her energetic, enthusiastic, and friendly manner, Mrs. Susan Fritz took on the heavy task of class advisor and helped bring our class together as a unit. Her many hours of anxious worry and planning con¬ tributed to the success of our activities. At the beginning of junior year, Miss Linda Rozzi joined Mrs. Fritz as co-advisor to the class. Her quiet organization and ef¬ ficiency helped make the next two years even more successful. As we depart RMHS, the Class of ' 88 ex¬ tends its heartfelt gratitude to these two tea¬ chers, who have given so much of themse¬ lves.
