Mr. T. H. Battelle Directors Santa Rosa High School offers to each student the opportunity to develop his talent to the highest degree. To those who plan to enter college we offer a preparatory course that will prepare them to enter any American college or university. To the great group of students who do not plan to go to college we offer exploratory courses in the fields of agriculture, business, home economics, mechanics, and woodwork. It is our hope that in the four years spent in this school you may lay the foundation for a pleasant and fruitful life. If we have accomplished this, we will not feel our work has been in vain. -T.
