Biggest chest 6£ST Looking- I find it difficult to adequately express my sincere thanks and appreciation to the Weaver students, faculty and staff with whom I have associated during these past three years. I am grateful for the opportunity to have worked with you, and although there were many trying times for all of us, there were bright moments as well. I consider this experience as the most gratifying and challenging of my thirty years as an educator. My plans for the future have not been finalized. However, I can assure you that next year I will be in Hartford working with you in some way to continue the job we have started—building a better Weaver. Paul Collins, Principal Dear Students and Staff, I am happy for this opportunity to say good-bye. Weaver has been part of my life for nine years, four of these as a student and five as a teacher, coach and coun¬ selor. I have worked almost tirelessly and I am not sorry for it. My only regret is that I have to leave you. I cannot write all that I have to say so I will keep it short. I will never forget you. I will always love you and I pray that we will someday meet again. May God’s blessings be with you always. Love, Mr. John Lee As my association with Weaver High School comes to a close, I am given to reflection. Reflections as a student, as a teacher, and as an administrator. Reflections of names, faces and events, all of which have made my stay at Weaver most pleas¬ urable and enjoyable. To the Class of 1973, I wish you the best of fortune in all your endeavors. It has been a pleasure working with you. Lawrence Shea, Executive Vice Principal WE CAME WITH GREAT HOPE . . .
