Faculty, Sfudenfs, Parenfs-Side By Sid '1 DR. MERLE M. KAUFFMAN, Superinlendenl' O lVaukegan Townsliip High School, provided by the citizens of this commu- nity, offers an opportunity for young people to prepare themselves for the future, at that time in their lives when there are no other major demands upon their time. This school and faculty are a concrete expression of the love and aH'eetion the community feels for its youth, as well as its faith in the future. This l958 edition of the high school yearbook presents a summary of the year's activities. Between its covers will be found recorded evidence that whenever teachers, students, and parents work side by side, they accomplish much. Every individual on the team is important. Each must do his share and contribute what he alone can. The goal is a common one-to build the community's future through its youth. This year's record is a good one. lt is worthy of Xllaukegan 'I'ownship High School. 17
