 The yearbook is a history book. It represents what has taken place in the last year. In this past year, change has taken place in the year- book staff. Sr. Jean ladevito, the woman in charge of all that went into the yearbook for many years, decided to devote more time to teaching, and her own artistic pursuits. So, this year has been a learning time, a transition time, and for the most part, a time on the edge. As the co-editor of this book, I felt challenged be- cause there were times when I was at a loss as to how to do something, and no one else seemed to know either. At those times, I couldn’t help but think that Sr. Jean would have known what to do. Perhaps we didn’t realize until Sr. Jean left, just how much we relied on her to do things for us. This year, we have learned to figure things out on our own or as a group — and it hasn’t always been easy. So, we have grown in this past year, and we have changed, and that will be reflected in this book. To Sr. Jean, we want to dedicate this book and all of our changing and learning and grow- ing, and, of course, we want to say thank you for all of your past help and influence. Now, turn the pages, and see how we’ve changed!
