To The Class OF 1954: l wish to express my greetings to the Class of l954. The year of gradua- tion from High School marks a turning point in your careers. Up to this point all your class members have pursued an educational pattern which was fairly uniform. Upon graduation you will each go in a direction dictated by your own desires and abilities. No matter which path you may choose, the educational foundation laid for you in Souderton High School will always be one of the building blocks of your future. lt has always been the desire of the Board of Education to create the educational environment in Souderton Schools which would enable you to prepare a firm foundation for a future life of good citizenship and honorable living. Members of your class have utilized these facilities and in turn made their contributions to Souderton High School, making it a better place for those who follow. Good-by and God-speed on your iourney. J. D. KRATZ, A.B., O.D. President Souderton Board of Education Dr, J Donald Kratz President To These Men, The Administration Ol Souderton High School, lt may quite truthfully be stated that our years spent iourneying through the realms of Souderton High School have constituted the most pleasant and carefree, as well as the most decisive, years of our entire lives. Now, as we reminisce, we agree that the faculty has contributed immeasurably toward molding us into young men and women capable of shouldering the responsibilities of the adult world. But we further realize that behind this aggregation of teachers is an organization equally instrumental in providing a well-balanced education for high school students-the Board of Education. Although rarely seen in session by the students, it is this body which is chiefly responsible for the formulation of the policies which govern not only the high school but Souderton's two grade schools as well. Once a month the school board meets to consider such problems as the hiring of teachers, recommendations for school programs, construction and maintenance of school buildings and property, the levying of school taxes, the authorization of expenditures, and a multitude of other questions which must be decided if the intricate mechanism of the school is to function smoothly. Serving on Souderton's Board of Education are five prominent, community-minded citizens who contribute unselfishly of their time and knowledge, without remu- neration, that the oncoming generation may secure as complete an education as possible. Dr. J. Donald Kratz, President of the Board, is well known throughout the community for his proficiency in the field of optometry. Paul M. Hunsicker, mortician at Souderton, Mr. Victor Nyce, Souderton real estate broker, Mr. Willard S. Detwiler, insurance underwriter, Metropolitan Life Insurance Co., Jordan B. Allem, Teller at Union National Bank 81 Trust Co., Souderton ldeceasedl, and John Seitz service-station proprietor, comprise the re- mainder of the Board. The members of the Class of T954 recognize the un- deniably significant work that the school board is doing for the community, and are grateful to this organization for all it has done to further the advance- ment of education at Sou- derton High School.
