As the seniors face graduation, we are aware of many ideas, attitudes, and actions changing, ending, and beginning. Graduation marks the end of four years at Westwood High — wonderful years filled with friendships, learning, and experiences years which we will remember for the rest of our lives. Graduation also marks a beginning of a new life — a life of new friendships, new learning, and experiences — a life which appears sometimes frightening. Thus graduation, a time of ending and beginning, is a time toward which we look with mixed emotions, hoping for the strength to meet whatever challenge may be placed before us. 16
