SUPERINTENDENT'S MESSAGE SEAVEY D. MORSE Please accept my appreciation for your efforts in compiling the 1956-1957 issue of THE OWL. Every yearbook project draws upon the many skills as learned and sharpened through your educational careers to date. The 1956-1957 OWL becomes not merely a recorded review and history of your 1956-1957 school year activities but a record expressing individual growth and achievement in the many learning processes. In years to come may you look back upon your Thomaston High School years as time well spent replete with happiness and fruitful experiences. SEAVEY D. MORSE PRINCIPAL'S MESSAGE The problems of young people are imperative and intense. When those problems are compared with the responsibilities of adulthood, they fade into the background of happy memories of early years marked by carefree gaiety and varied opportunity. Those of us who are privileged to play a part in guiding the youth of this community toward the future will find gteat satisfaction in following the growth and progress of the boys and girls of the Thomaston High School.

THOMASTON HIGH SCHOOL Seventeen years have not visibly changed the Thomaston High School Building. The equipment has been renewed, the staff has had some changes, but the classic architecture has made the building itself a landmark in the community. Through the years students have thoughtfully cared for the school so that now it looks almost as it did in its first year, 1939.
