HV, .,,, . .,,-um -. THIS IS OUR SCHOOL Many of us have been here for nine years, some since the seventh grade, and a few are newcomers. But to all Snowden has become a symbol of many Worthwhile things. Here we have learned to do for ourselves and to respect the rights of our classmates. Some were timid and found it difficult to do things with others, while some were too forward and needed to he taught restraint. Some of the most valuable contributions Snowden has made to us are a foundation to stand on and tools with which to work. These will be useful throughout our adult life. We have learned to read for information, knowledge, and idealsg to express our thoughts in both written and spoken words. We have obtained an historical background for future under- standing of our government, and the development of our country as well as of that of other lands. In mathematics and science we have prepared to meet the everyday needs of life as well as more comprehensive study for the future. 7' 4-nu

They were proud of him then and we are prouder of him now. Henry has proved that the foundation which Snowden helped him build was strong, firm, and helpful for future development. He started out with a quick understanding of new ideas and desire for knowledge, a wide range of information concerning events happening around him. Henry had a high sense of right and wrong and a willingness to meet people half way and to respect their rights. Now he is Mayor of Memphis. The citizens recognized his leadership, power and ability. He has done just what was expected of him, and we hope this is only the beginning of bigger things for you, Mr. Loeb, in the future. 'nu I' tai: -1-1:-:.:.gnnm:-:-5 91 , .

Participation in the many drives to help others has taught us the value of sharing and helping those who are less fortunate than we. Along with the working foundations to meet adult life, we have developed our apprecia- tion of cultural things through the study of music and art. We have found the great im- portance of games and exercise for physical development and recreation. Yes, Snowclen means all this and much more to all of us, because when our work is completed here we are prepared to meet the needs of future education and of life. We are fitted to become leaders of tomorrow. 5
