Jurgen Dohm, foreign exchange student, ignites his scientific flare in the chemistry lab at Page. Minds built through opportunity and experience Sandy Moore enriches her education through an elec¬ tive course of art. As it is the function of a building to shelter those within it, so it is the purpose of a school to protect democracy by the stimulation of the mind. Through the creation of an atmosphere of inspiration and dedication, a system of education seeks to build the minds of its youth. Although this atmosphere exerts a predominant influence on the growth of an individual ' s attitudes, the freedom that is permitted to the mind enables him to exceed the bounds of his immediate en¬ vironment. In reacting to his own ideas, analyzing his own thoughts, and drawing his own conclu¬ sions, he is overcoming obstacles and restraints and is contributing to the growth of his own mind. In spite of the fact that a person ' s mental progress is his own, his teachers, his fellow stu¬ dents, and his curriculum all contribute to the intellectual growth of his mind. In combination with his physical environment, the influence of his co-wokers, and his personal acceleration, a student at Page High School is well equipped to continue the building of his mind.

Only a teacher who is enthusiastic about her work and is able to transfer this en¬ thusiasm to her students can kindle the spark of creativity in their minds Only a teacher who gives of herself as well as of her knowledge and ability can maintain a teacher-student relation¬ ship which is actually a deep and significant friendship. Only a teacher who does all of these things can achieve the goals of her profession and reap the rewards which accompany these goals. Mrs. Margaret Garrett is such a teacher. Her genuine interest in the teaching profession and all that it encompasses has extended beyond the bounds of the ordinary professional duties to touch and influence practically every student at sometime.
