Flight, around which our namesake built his life and career, is symbolic of exploration of the unknown and of innovations for the future. As Scott Carpenter said about the flight program, when he attended the dedication ceremonies on November 4, 1965: This fthe flight programb is something l would willingly give my life for, and I think a person is very fortunate to have something that he can care that much about. The space age is a constant quest of learning. General William Mitchell High School has adopted learning, research, discoveries, and continual innovations as its basic principles. Traditions in the years to come will be added to those created this year. Every student and teacher of this school is making his own personal contributions. Whether its in the painting of a portrait, the selling of a ticket, or the winning of a game, the contributions of this first year are innumerable. Re- cording the contributions of you, the students of Mit- chell High School, is the school newspaper Echelon and thisuschool annual. This publication is the com- bined effort of every student and faculty member. It is entitled Apogee to represent William Mitchell High School's goal to reach to the highest points of excel- lence. Apogee means the farthest two points of an or- bital path ofa satellite. The word apogee implies reaching for unknown heights, and William Mitchell High School has already secured both national and world-wide recognition for its excellence in archetec- tural design.

He may stumble over defeat, but he never falls, he just keeps on reaching for higher, more challenging goals. The students of Mitchell High School are proud of him and the principles for which he stands. He is helping cre- ate the heritage of our school. Forming another part of that heritage is this publication. For you, the staff of the Mitchell High School yearbook proudly pre- sents the . . . urn -ii1fEii5,,- X9 WWW pit
