Here we stand, on the springboard of our past accom- plishments, nervously anticipating our future as valuable citizens. Our senior year has been an immediate prepara- tion for this so called iumping off period in our lives. Just exactly how has it helped to ready us for this im- portant step? First we might consider what kind of a base has been laid for us as adult Catholics. ln religion classes chapters from My Way of Life on God and Human Happiness, The End and the Beginning, and pamphlets on such varied subjects as the angels and atheism, were typical of our sub- ject material. Father Moudry's weekly classes on Christian marriage also played an important part in our religious curriculum. Our retreat and our all-school Masses were ex- cellent opportunities for us again to direct ourselves toward God. Academically, we have had the opportunity to choose courses which were tailor-made for our individual occu- pational plans. Those who took a college prep course finished the necessary classes for college entrance during their senior year. Girls interested in office work concen- trated on secretarial procedure and bookkeeping courses. VVhatever we wish to do after our plunge into society, we have had an excellent opportunity to prepare ourselves scholastically at St. Joseph's. And if we are to be accepted and useful in the great expanse called our future, we must also be prepared socially. Our senior year really marked the climax of social events at SJA. Besides the now traditional Silver Belle Ball, we had the thrill of being guests of honor at the Junior-Senior Prom and of having our own special Senior Prom. Planned activities like the Big-Little Sister Party showed us how much fun friendliness and helpfulness to others can be. The expanded guidance program, with its frequent guest speakers, college information, and scholastic evaluation division, was a helpful directive for us as we decided our post-high school plans. It is at the end of our senior year, then, that we straighten confidently, take our final strides forward, and spring into the future. SENIORS
