A II of us were once told that winning isn’t everything. As children, we accepted this belief. Yet, as we grew into young adults, so did our desire for competition, and we began to believe that winning is everything. Although success was popular, failure was too often present in our lives. Soon, while we shamefully hid our disgraces, we emphasized skills that would show off our expertise. However, when we became too specialized, an unevenness was evident. Our opinions and tasks, that had once been balanced, grew one-sided. Still, to achieve perfection in a competitive society, we realized the need for several different talents. Even our schools try to produce “well-rounded” persons. But, while schools try to improve their stu- dents, they must also improve themselves. Although many schools try to achieve perfection, most fall short of their goals. In July 1983, however, Valparaiso High School was selected by the (J.S. Depart- ment of Education as one of the top 85 schools in the nation. So, while other schools were busy making plans for better education, VHS acted as a model for these schools.
