We the members of the class oi 1955, in reviewing our high school days, realize that we owe a great deal to three distinguished gentlemen, Mr. Robert P. Barner, Superinten- dent of Rochester Schools, Mr. Fenton H. Farley, Principal of Rochester High School, and Mr. William T. Peacock, Assistant Principal. Their leadership and guidance have helped us immeasurably in prepar- ing for th-e hard, lonely road that lies ahead when we will have to make our own decisions and govern ourselves. Robert P. Barnet, Superin- tendent, Rochester Area loint Schools. dministration Fenton H. Farley. Principal. William T. Peacock, Assist- ant Principal.

Our high school years are one of the most important periods of our lives. Our guidance during this short time comes from many sources. We the class of 1955, would like to extend our sincere appreciation to the members of the Board of Education, who have helped to make our high school years most pleasant and enjoyable. The improvements, past and present, that have greatly contributed to the success of our class, are mostly due to the effort put forth by this group of people who have taken such a great interest in our welfare. Through the combined efforts of these people our current year is something of which We can gwl' be proud. Due to the foresight of the group, br! plans have been set in motion for a new and rw, 1 ,ft better equipped high school. They should be COI1'1mended highly for this eHOl'l.

Band- Facult As the months passed by and gradu- ation loomed closer in our sights, we felt that we should pay tribute to the instructors who have, for the past three years, spent their time and efforts so willingly to make us more intelligent and better equipped individuals to face life. We realize that they were not just unfeeling machines trying to drill knowledge into us, but understanding, helpful human-beings who played a large part in making our lives what they have now become.
