DR. E. J. BRAUN Assistant Superintendent There is something unique and satisfying in being the ' first ' ' in any enterprise. You, who are the first students to grad- uate from Wakefield High School, were also the first high school students to enroll there. For three years your class has been first. You have had a high privilege — that of establishing customs and traditions which may go on for a hundred years at your fine school. You have set excellent standards of achievement which, I also hope, may be maintained at Wakefield for the next cen- tury and more. As you go out from your wonderful Wakefield, I cherish the hope that you will never relinquish the feeling that you can be first in the things that really matter in life. You can always be first in high ideals and honest effort. You can always be first in patriotism and loyalty. Wakefield was built to build good cit- izens. As the first class to graduate, may you always be first in life ' s important attitudes and efforts. CHARLES J. WALSH Assistant Superintendent HhShhh T. EDWARD RUTTER Superintendent of Schools Members of the 1955 and 1956 School Boards: James Stockard, Elizabeth Campbell, Erwin Draheim, Warren Cox, Clark Keating, Barbara Riches, Barnard Joy. DR. C. GLEN HASS Associate Superintendent

t first, it was diffi- cult to imagine that it was necessary to assemble a group of teachers with the varied areas of experience demonstrated by our faculty. We were incap- able of perceiving that a group of teachers could do more than prepare us academically for our future lives. But as we face graduation we recognize the many benefits and opportunities our faculty has offered us. Guiding, suggesting and sometimes directing, they assisted us in establishing ideals and traditions of which we can now be proud. We realize now that they are not only teachers but individual persons, and we extend our gratitude to our teachers who have offered us the utmost in thorough preparation.
