Message from the School Board It has been said that education is an econ¬ omical method of assisting an initially ill- adapted individual, during the short period of a single life, to cope with the ever-increas¬ ing complexities of the world. Commonly speaking, we are restricting the term “educa¬ tion” to those adjustments made by the im¬ mature individual through the special insti¬ tution of the school. Of late, much criticism has been directed at the learning processes found in the schools of our province. Many maintain that our children are not receiving as good an education as they deserve. If this is true, then we must either contrive to make education more effective or we must be satisfied with a simpler civilization. To you who graduate, we say that you have chosen wisely in completing your high school studies, in spite of some apparent shortcomings in the programme. You have learned not only with but by each other. It is to be lamented that so many drop out too early and thus fail to help raise the standards of society. We congratulate you on your effort to publish another yearbook. Though the pur¬ pose of the school is to provide something more worthwhile than memories, yet your schooldays will remain forever a part of you and your lives. They should be memories not only of childhood escapades but of effort and accomplishment, shared with others, and directed and encouraged by interested and able teachers. In the years which lie ahead of you, always remember that to a great extent you will be the masters of your fate. Success or fail¬ ure, joy or sorrow, good or evil; these things are largely in your hands. May these few years which you have spent in school help you live lives that are rich, full of meaning, and of service to your fellow men. PAGE FIVE
