CREED OF CITIZENSHIP; OF WESTMONT AND UPPER YODER HIGH SCHOOL To be true to the traditions of my school and of my country. To be courteous to my fellow citizens both in my school and in my community. To maintain my own self-respect and the respect of my neigh- bor. To practice thrift by caring for the property of others and by making the best use of my own time and possessions. To contribute my share in carrying the social responsibility of my schooi and my community. During this school year, the Student Council has been striving to bring about in each student a consciousness of his social being so as to build up a recognized, respectable tone about our school. In doing this, the council at all times has tried to remain as democratic and as considerate of the students as possible. Organized as a medium through which these students can more fully cooperate with the faculty for a common benefit, the council has steadily moved forward and taken a definite place ir the administration of the school. In solving its problem of creating a desirable atmosphere, the council has laid the foundation of the movement in the form of the above accepted creed.
