Searching: to seek, examine and explore Because of the problems and complications that face each of us in today’s world, our four years at Weaver have been more than a period of carefree life. We have found it impossible to sit idly by and watch the world move around us. Most of us have chosen to become involved with that part which is moving. No matter what the issue, we never hesitated to speak our minds. It was an unusual occasion when our senti¬ ments were not known. Yet for all our “stand-taking,” we still find ourselves very much in doubt on many issues. Many times it has been difficult to see just what the correct course is. We have searched for many answers, both individ¬ ually and as a class. Many of our questions remain unsolved even as we approach graduation, but, hope¬ fully, our experiences at Weaver have at least taught us how to better cope with them. If our teachers and administrators have been successful, we should be leaving our school with an improved sense of judge¬ ment and a better set of values. One thing is for sure. We have used Weaver as a testing ground for our ideas. In this reasonably secure environment, we have tried out, before being bold enough to let the whole community or country know what we’re doing, different methods of persuasion. We have examined our curriculum, explored new ways of expression, and sought a new identity; we have left our mark on Weaver, and Weaver has left one on us. Whether that mark will prove favorable, only time can be the judge. The 1970 Portal staff has chosen “Searching” as its theme because that is what each one of us has been doing these last four years and will continue to do the rest of our lives. Searching for a career, searching for happiness, searching for a better world. We can only hope that we will be successful in these endeavors, so that future generations will not have to search as hard as we have had to, in order to obtain those things which we all desire. The important thing to remember is, no matter how discouraging things may look, never to stop our search. Only by an endless quest will we ever be able to accomplish the aims which we have set for ourselves. Searching: to seek, to examine, to explore—the important thing is to remember to never stop. 4 A crowd looks on as Beavers tackle HPHS at Turkey Day game.
