SENIOR CLASS POEM We, the graduating class of 1958, have Reached the first of life ' s plateau. And it ' s with humble hearts we give thanks For having come this far. We’ve never faltered in our determination To attain our goal although We might have failed if we had not had Our wagon hitched to a star. We look forward to the future without A backward glance Knowing full well life holds much in store For everyone who strives To ao ms best, and to take advantage Of every chance To serve God and our fellow-man. And thus enrich our lives. It is with mixed emotions that we have come To the end of this school year. It ' s the time we have strived toward With great anticipation, and yet We hate to say goodbye to Dear Ole ' Wakelon And all the friends we hold so dear, But the tie that binds us together Is so strong we can never forget.
