I rouy i fieir sAi Ifu ass s am PRINCIPAL'S MESSAGE A person unfamiliar with the total program of the modern school, turning the pages of the average yearbook, might gain the impression that attending school is a merry-go-round of clubs, dances, athletic contests, music festivals, cheerleading and baton twirling. These things of course are the glamorous side of school life and the parts that are most photogenic. After all, who wants to look at a picture of a student translating Latin or taking the square root of 7924? In pointing this out, I do not mean to belittle the proper place and value that these activities have in helping to build well- rounded personalities. But they do present a challenge to the boy and girl who takes a look at the road ahead through high school and what lies over the hills beyond. The big job and one requiring a lot of time and effort is the acquiring of the skills and attitudes and powers of thinking that come from steady work in and close associations with the subjects of the curriculum. Today the challenge of staying on the right road is keener than ever before for the younger student. This is because there is constantly more competition for your interests, your time, your effort and your loyalties. It's the Familiar problem of value choices which I have mentioned on occasions in the past. You must meet it not only within the four walls of the school building but during just about every waking moment outside the school. Here's hoping that each of you develops the keeness of per- ception to see the right road, the intestinal fortitude to stay on that road, a slightly cynical eye towards the billboards along the way, and enough sense of humor to make the traveling fun. BOARD OF EDUCATION 8 Griffin Brooks, Melvin Carpender, District Superintendent; George Davis, President; Howard Vandermark, Russell Frazee, Albert Hall.
