Just as there is harmony in music, so we too have harmony between our parents and teachers. Our P. T. A. under the leadership of President Rev. Ongna, four first President, Mr. Kieth den Dulk, left us in December to work with the Back to God Hour in lllinoisl, has been very active in creating this harmony. Four times a year the one hundred members meet with the teachers to discuss common problems concerning our Christian Education and to enioy a brief social period after each meeting. A program committee selected by the President is in charge of discussions at each meeting. Before each meeting parents are given the opportunity to speak personally with each teacher in regard to the progress of their children. This organization is always willing to give financial aid to assist the school and has been very generous in giving gifts to further improve our school. We, the Senior Class of 1955, wish to thank the Parent and Teacher's Association for the interest shown in the welfare of the students of R.C.H.S. and thus creating harmony--the essence of Christian Fellowship--between our homes and school.
