Science High School - Synergist Yearbook (Newark, NJ)

Text from Pages 1 - 96 of the 1978 volume:

True science teaches one to be ignorant, and always to doubt. Claude Dernard We, the students of Science High School, strive incessantly to explore the deep, dark, undiscovered FRONTIERS of the Universe, in the hope that one day we will illuminate the path of Knowledge, making the unknown, known. We are determined to discover what there is to be found, to be learned, and to be accomplished by the exploration of the remaining Frontiers: the Atom, the Cell, the Seas, Space, and the outer reaches of the mind. These are the never-ending challenges we will encounter and accept in life. This is the heritage of Science High School and this is the tradition we hand to posterity. Dedication In recognition of his vision in conceiving the possibility of a unique and diversified institution of learning, of his perseverance in bringing this vision to reality, and of his relentless pursuit of scholastic excellence, we the first graduating class salute the I oundcr and Principal, Morris R. Lcrner. We therefore dedicate this our first yearbook our final effort to 2 rris R.

Paige Lisa, is this 25 cents a line? I wanted to be inconspicuous about this and this seems to be an opportune place. My purpose is to say thank you for the good times and even some of the bad, because they helped me grow professionally and personally. The past four years represent a struggle of sorts by us to make this school work, but also between us, when I tugged one way and you pulled another. Know that I've expected from you the same things I thought others expected from me at your age. Standards are demanding and I would hope that through it all you knew what I wanted most-your success. Congratulations on your first step, graduation, and my every wish for a 85 life that rewards YOUR expectations for yourselves. Just maybe, those expectations arc mine, too. Godspeed.
