Dear Students of Richmond High— This Echo is your own personal history book. It is a chronicle of the events that transpire during the years you are a part of this high school. As you bid farewell to R.H.S. you may realize, however abstractly, that the momentum of the years is already upon you. The fullness of living will so absorb you that those things which are hap- pening to you now—the names, the faces, the events—fade from your immediate consciousness. Your challenge will be to cope with the rapid changes that will take place in your life. Just as a nation looks to its history books, studies its successes and failures, notes its trends and gains inspiration and courage from its pioneers, statesmen, visionaries, philosophers and courageous men and women; so may you in years to come occasionally pick up this Echo, thumb through its pages and recall the joys, the sorrows, the hard work, the successes, the failures and the people that are a part of you now. Just as a nation’s history helps it to understand its present, so may you then more fully comprehend what is happening to you now. May you also recognize the statesmen, the phi- losophers, the visionaries, and the courageous men and women who are now your fellow stu- dents, your teachers, and your community. May you then know that the roots of your values and your value judgments lie deep in your years spent here at this school. May your years be blessed with fulfillment and may you know that the Richmond Com- munity Schools are proud to be a part of your life. Sincerely, Urey B. Arnold Superintendent of Schools 11
