DEDICATION TO RATHER SHIELDS REVEREND FRANCIS SHIELDS DEDICATION: In the month of June, 1962, Saint Thomas was transformed from a parish high school into a district educational institution. This change meant that the school was no longer affiliated with St. Thomas Parish and its most revered pastor, Father Shields. Yet Father Shields' association with the class of ’63 lasted for a much appreciated three years. During that time Father represented one of the most important influences of our lives. Father Shields guided, assisted, praised, and corrected us with untiring devotion and loyalty. He helped to mold and shape our characters into those of true Christians. In addition, even though burdened with numerous pastoral duties, Father found time to confer with us every week about our problems and difficulties. Finally, but most important, he implanted in our hearts a deep knowledge, appreciation, and love of the Creator which we hope will ultimately lead us into eternity. It is for these reasons that we, the graduating class of 1963, with deep appreciation dedicate our yearbook to Father Francis Shields. 6

WSADMASTER OP CT THOMAS REVEREND LEO HENRV ADDRESS TO STUDENTS: Religious Educators are a special breed. They are charged, in addition to the teaching of the three R's, with the obligation of imparting religious doctrines and instilling Christian convictions - personal commitments to follow Jesus Christ - in an age when all else is aimed toward material goods. It is a terrifying responsibility, but one that we relish and whole-heartedly embrace. It has been a wonderful experience to serve the Class of 1963. Though our relationship was a relatively brief one, I feel a special friendship toward the senior class of my first year at Saint Thomas District High School. My prayer for the graduates will be that you are a different person because of your years at Saint Thomas. That your faith has matured, your charity bears fruit, and the wisdom imparted through prayer, study and action here will serve God's glory from now until eternity. Then the sacrifice of ours, your parents, and the many good people who made our school possible will be fully compensated. 7
