Wilson 2 IN APPRECIATION We, the senior class of Sheridan High School wish to take this opportunity to express our sincere appreciation and deep devotion to our beloved class advisor and sponsor, Mrs. Doris E. Kitt. Mrs. Kitt has put forth many hours of individual effort in order to make our four years at Sheridan High School both educational and richly rewarding. She has given to the members of our class the inspiration and courage needed to meet the demands of our high school years. She has given us guidance, and has shown astounding patience and wisdom that helped to shape our confused lives. We wish to remind Mrs. Kitt of our wonderful prom, our Junior-Senior Banquet, and our crushing defeats in the Amateur Show. Without her, our years at Sheridan High School would not have been so marvelous as they were. Mrs. Kitt will always be a treasured memory in the difficult years that lie ahead of the graduating class of nineteen hundred and sixty-six. 3 This year's annual staff was comprised of the entire Senior class. The annual meetings were the source of many hours of pleasure as well as grief and hard work on the part of the editors. Nikki Baril and Glenn Gilman, co-editors of the 1966 Trailblazer, hope that this product of their labors will be enjoyable to you.
