Students A school is only a building until the students give it life. S.F.H.S. thrives on the life of 328 CRUSADERS. The CRUSADER, a typical teenager of today, possess a unique personality, special talents, and capabilities that contribute to the excellence of his school. A CRUSADER is something special. As the students leave their homes each morning and approach the doors of S.F.H.S., a transformation takes place. The walk through those doors transforms them to CRUSADERS—one team working together to share in all of life's gifts. They are something special— they are CRUSADERS. In this sharing a CRUSADER is able to help himself. In this- sharing a CRUSADER gives of himself to others. He learns to accept other human beings. He learns to work both at school, at home, and in the rest of the world. He is something special—he is a CRUSADER. 25

Seniors Eagerly Anticipate the Future As the 1965-66 school term at S.F.H.S. opened, 92 seniors set out on the final lap of their journey through high school. They had accomplished many things in the three preceding years and are now prepar- ing themselves for the life they must face in the future. To this end they are pursuing such courses as Re- ligion, bookkeeping, Shorthand II, Typing II, Spanish, German, Trig and Analytic Geometry, business math, government, world literature, English literature, and journalism. The senior year offers many challenges. The re- sponsibility of the newspaper and yearbook, together, with the leadership the other classes expect of them, afford the seniors many opportunities to lead the stu- dent body as a whole in the right direction. This re- sponsibility offers the students greater opportunity as Crusaders to cope with the problems they will face as adults. Their responsibilities, together with their sen- iority, are represented by the class ring which is a symbol of the loyalty which is expected of each one as he reaches the final stage of his high school career.
