AND NOW TOMORROW Our lives are but a calendar, To be planned, experienced, and looked forward to. As we check off each day as they pass, A new day arrives for us to live through. This calendar is marked off not in dates but as phases of our lives, These bring the past, present, and the future, The yesterdays we will remember well, As the days we learned to read and spell. We have experienced the good and bad, All the joys andssorrows to be had. The todays are filled with new goals and plans, We do our tasks and take our stands. If a wall should stop us we tear it down, And a new day comes dressed in a golden gown. We have been through the yesterdays, and experienced the todays, They have gone past only to be forgotten or remembered as a phase. Our accomplishments may have been great or small, We may have experienced happiness or sorrow. But we have lived our lives, AND NOW TOMORROW CLASS COLORS BLUE WHITE CLASS FLOWER WHITE ROSE 11 Valedictorian --Stewart Yeomans Salutatorian--Nina Carrick SENIOR MOMENTS TO REMEMBER Senior Play The Mystery of the Locked Room Senior Play Doctor Fixit Are you a man or a mouse Left to right are Pat Phelps, Jim Mc- Gill, Eugene King, Sharon Phelps,.
