MR. john a. Mclennan PRINCIPAL TO THE GRADUATE OF 1968: Congratulations upon the successful completion of high school. These past few years will soon become a memory as you go forward into life. When and if you read these words years from now, I hope the memories of your high school days will be pleasant ones. In the cool light of time, I am sure your school and teachers will be seen with nostalgia and affection. This is justifiable because you have been a favored class—your school and teachers have been among the best. Also, your class has been good for the school and leaves a good record behind. We have enjoyed having you because of your achievements, your behavior, and your generally high level of performance. Most of you used to advantage what was offered you by this community and school. Some few have not—but now, maybe, as you leave, you are able to see what you missed and can change your ways. We, your teachers, wish you much success and happiness now and in the future. We stand ready— as we always have—to help when we can. You must understand the greatest reward of teaching is that we live on through our pupils. We have given our best and all we ask is that you, in turn, do your best. §JLQ.% c 20
