Lenard A, Staten Assistant Headmaster Academics Trust the Lord with all your heart. Never rely on what you think you know. Remember the Lord in everything you do, and he will show you the right way. Proverbs 3:5 6 Here at SCMA you hove had good aca- demic instruction and you have made pro- gress in your educational path. But you hove also been taught by word and example the importance of faith in your lives. Through your experiences here, both positive and negative, your character has been molded toward a better man. 1 would admonish each of you to continue in the paths you have begun and established here and grow academically, so- cially and spiritually so you will become the man God wants you to be. is Marie E Hurte Assistant Headmaster Activities The skating party, senior ditch day, retreat, When will the rings get here? all have now become just memories to the 1981 senior class. But coupled with the memories which you have are those which 1 have of a student council which gave SCMA its first mascot and a senior class which provided leadership for the entire student body As your Activities Di- rector, may 1 say thank you for making my work so enjoyable and wish you God ' s richest blessing as you continue your life ' s goals. My prayer is that you will bless someone else ' s life OS you hove blessed mine Marie E, Hurte M .0

George V. Hurte Headmaster HEADMASTER ' S MESSAGE The school year 1980-1981 has been one of excitement and innprove- ment in our program and our Cadet Corps. I want to thank each cadet who helped to make this a great nine months. You are the gentlemen who will one day be responsible for the path this country takes. This realization is the basis of the challenge we accept as faculty and staff. To do our very best that you might be parpared for what lies ahead. May your memories of SCMA be fond memories and may you realize that we had your best interest at heart even when you may have felt that things weren ' t always going the way you wanted.

Glenn D. Davis Assistant Headmaster Admissions It has been a rewarding time for me to shore your educational experience at SCMA While life itself is a University, the educational system provides numerous ' Vindows of learning which we are priviledged to pass, and in passing observe the record of others. These views provide us, both positive and negative reference points that can serve us well as we chart our own course in life. One of the many critical characteristics of these educational windows is that they are time limited. Hence the vital impor- tance of looking carefully and comprehensively when exposed to these vistas of learning I hope your educational window at SCMA has been a positive experience, and that you will never forget the view presented here which exposes all stu- dents to Christian Ethics, strong academics, positive leadership and wholesome patriotism, I recommend you adopt St, Augustine ' s life princi- ples: To myself I will show a heart of steel; to my fellow-man o heart of love, and to my God, a heart of flame With positive expectations for your future Mr Glenn Davis Ronald Hurte Night Commandant
