Todd Grant High School - Tiger Yearbook (Darlen, GA)

Text from Pages 1 - 68 of the 1963 volume:

The Senior Class of Darien, Georgia Presents THE TIGER 1963 Dedication For thou hath been a strength to the poor, a balm to the hurt, a refuge to the unsheltered, a source of knowledge for the innocent and a pleasant help in times of trouble. We, the members of the Senior Class of '63 dedicate this issue of THE TIGER to our parents who struggled with us up to this point in our educational pursuits. We feel that we could not have come thus far without their care, interests, and sacrifices. We are sincerely grateful to them and pray that they may be the recipients of God’s richest blessings. So we dedicate this: THE 1963 TIGER to OUR PARENTS [ 2 ] Superintendent SUPERINTENDENT'S MESSAGE To The Tiger Staff and Student Body: I would like to take this opportunity to congratulate you, the Senior Class of 1963, both individually and collectively on the achievements you have attained during your high school days at Todd-Grant High School. I hope your promotions through the grades have taught you that learning is a pro- gressive art, and that each of you endeavor to continue your education after graduation. To each and all—The future is yours. You have the opportunity to fulfill the tradition of Todd-Grant High School and make your Alma Mater second to none. It is a distinct pleasure to have had the opportunity to work with you. I hope your future will be filled with the fruits of life that will lead to good health, happiness and success. Sincerely, W. E. Ethington, C.S.S. t 3 ] Principal PRINCIPAL’S MESSAGE I wish to congratulate you, the members of the Graduating Class of '63 for your efforts and attainments. As I write this message to you, I am fortunate to be listening to President J. F. Kennedy's State of the Union Message to the 88th Congress and the people of this great nation. It was wonderful to note the emphasis placed on the need of our nation to continue to strive toward the education of our young men and women from kinder- garten through graduate school, regardless of race, color or creed. Please permit me to say to you that to this end, your parents, teachers, county and state governments, and your federal government have continually strived. You have reached a very important landmark in your life because of the many interested forces behind you and because of your efforts and abilities, these forces of help, no doubt, will continue to make themselves a very important part in your life, but the chief responsibility of growing up rests with you. Whether you will continue your education depends on your interest and your ability. So I say, give serious thoughts to this very important matter. Do not waste your time in idleness and just plain foolishness. Todd-Grant High School is happy to have had a part in helping to shape your course. We tried hard and hope that we have done you justice. We further hope you will make us all proud that sometime in the not-too-distant future, you will make us all proud that we are a part of each other. Best wishes for your continued growth and development. Sincerely yours, Cx¥h MjL Liioj C. A. DeVillars, Principal [ 4 ] 0L MRS R. C. ARMSTRONG First Grade MISS R. M.
