■ The Mirror of 1931 Administration Department A philosophy of life includes the guiding motives and ideals which largely direct one's life. Each high school has a philosophy, which in a manner makes it individualistic. The state may prescribe the curriculum, yet the high schools of the state may, and usually are very different one from the other We say the atmosphere of the school is different, the attitude of faculty and students is different and the graduates have characteristics which identify them as products of a certain school. What then is the philosophy of Sharon High School? Sharon High School is characterized by a philosophy which says that character, initiative, and tools, in the order mentioned, are the important goals toward which we drive. Character first, because it is the foundation upon which all other elements of an education must be built. Without a good character the ambitious educated man becomes a menace, a source of danger to our Republic. With a good character he is usually a desirable citizen and may become a great leader. Initiative we place second. It is the driving force which makes a good man, good for something. It is the force which causes a man to make good use of the tools with which he has become skillful. Our studies, algebra, English. Latin, history, etc., the tools with which we work, come third, because they are the result of character and initiative. They are the servants of the other two and have no value except as they are directed. The man who has only initiative and knowledge is a liability, because he uses his skill for unworthy purposes. The man who has character and knowledge and no initiative is an idler and of no profit to society. But he who has character and initiative will not and cannot be stopped. He will find a way. He will succeed. Character, initiative and tools, but the greatest of these is character. This, then, is our philosophy and we are willing to be judged by its fruits. P. A. JONES, Principal. Eleven
