The faculty shapes the personality of the school. Attitudes of the faculty directly influence the en- thusiasm and loyalty with which the students carry on their class work and activities. It is largely because Somerville High School has been endowed with a faculty so gifted that the school rates today as superior among those that have been evaluated by the Commis- sion on Secondary Education. The chief aim of the school, however, is to in- spire us, its students, to open our minds constantly to new subjects and to new ideas, whether we go on to college or accept a job. Good counciling by our teachers, a friendly approach and the ability to help us to find joy in learninggthese things determine whether or not we are to continue our education tomorrow. We have been most fortunate in having on our faculty men and women who have given to us this desire. FACULTY llff ll!
