Mrs. Mary A. Spakowski Due to the deep admiration we hold for Mrs. Mary A. Spakowski; our teacher and advisor it is with gratitude that we, the class of 1968, dedicate our yearbook to her. Through her patience and understanding we have been able to overcome problems we were not able to solve ourselves. In this way we would like to express our sincere thanks to her.

Plato once said, The direction in which education starts a man will determine his future life. At no time in history has this observation been more important. In our modern and mobile society, with its recurrent technological revolutions, the financial and social status of each citizen is almost directly related to his educational achievement. In turn, this educational achievement is measured by the quality of the education received by the individual, and the quantity absorbed by the individual. I am extremely proud of this graduating class. Each member of the class has proven he has the determination to succeed in spite of obstacles to his success. I hope you will continue to greater success as I know you will strive to reflect credit upon your school, your community, and most important of all, your parents.
