ON THE TH RESHOLD... Our high school days are nearing an end. We are about to be graduated. We are on the threshold of a whole new phase of our lives. Each will go his sep- arate way, some will continue their ed- ucation, others will enter the armed serv- ices, and others will enter industry. We will miss the familiar surroundings and the warmth of friendly faces. So it is with mingled feelings that we reflect on our four years spent here. It would be a sorrowful occasion were it not for the satisfaction of a goal attained, a greater challenge ahead, a look to the future. We have been pre- pared for this challenge by our educa- tion here, by our growth in physical and moral fibre. We face the future with confidence and eagerness. It is with sincere gratitude that we acknowledge the patience, encourage- ment and guidance of our teachers and parents. Our class has been fortunate to have as its advisers Miss Antoinette Lewis and Mr. John Hennessey, who by the force of their ersonalities, have de- . manded the bestpthat was in us. The BRUCE DUCAT' Class Presldenl class protects we have undertaken have CLASS OF l956 been marked with outstanding success through the cooperation of each and every member. We are proud of the goals we have set, and l have been honored to be your class president. We are the 100th class to be graduated from Troy High, one of the largest in her history. A hundred years of educational influence over the lives of succeeding generations! When one considers this, one realizes the important role Troy High has had in the shaping of men's lives. She has proudly held her standards high, and we have but written another page in her history. We cannot rest on our laurels, however, and like the classes that have gone before us, we must go forth individually to do credit to ourselves, our community and our nation, and to justify the confidence that has been placed in us. My best wishes to all of you! Sincerely, iffuoc 0014447 2
