In the after- math of war, human society is in the throes of a decisive reconstruction. Our high school teaching stalf, comprised of thirteen Sisters of St. Francis, whose mot her house is in Sylvania, Ohio, is fully aware of the funda- mental changes necessary in secondary education to meet the emergency. Cognizant, also, of the de- mands and dangers of the high speed, stream- lined period of material progress, they enrich the curriculum with organized courses of study whence arc derived cultural values, as well as scientific and technical skills for joyous living. From widely recognized institutions, such as the Universities of Michigan and Minnesota, they come, primed in the methods and techniques of modern pedagogy, and prepared by preservice and in-service training in specialized fields. Their academic and professional qualifications broadened in Catholic colleges and universities, such as the University of Detroit, Notre Dame, Fordham, St. Louis, Loyola, De Paul, the College of St. Teresa, and the Catholic University of America, our exemplars imprint their fruitful teaching with the chivalrous character of Christ- ian ideals and moral knowledge. As co-workers of Christ and followers of St. Francis, inspired by the most sublime ideal of peace, they develop in their daily apostolate the moral integrity of fu- ture God-fearing and God-loving citizens.

Reverend Francis Dolot What arc Ye? Galahads? . . . men with strength and the will to right the wrong’d . . . (Holy Grail, 1. 306) Spiritual growth is an integral part of the whole educational development. Throughout the course of moral training, the priest is a benedic- tion to the students. In the religion classes at St. Ladislaus, the liegeman of Christ presents the time-proved standards of Catholic morality. Our high school youth, at the crossroads of life, eagerly accepts the spiritual vassalage. It fortifies itself with the effective means of charac- ter-training through the Sacraments, vocational guidance, spiritual advice, and general conferen- ces made available by each parish priest who com- prises our faculty. As another Galahad, by sur- veillance and example from pulpit, classroom, gym, gridiron, and baseball diamond, he stresses the need for vitalizing religious truths in daily life. Thus, in building a conscience for the right fulfillment of social, civil, and religious duties, St. Ladislaus High School strives to develop in its students an unflinching fealty to the Lord of Hosts, in time as in eternity. and othec qalAhAds
