Board of Education Grover G. French Felix Flora, Pres. Walter E. Stafford Phillip Lindsay Clyde Mason The Board of Education is composed of five members who are elected by the voters of the school district for five year terms with one term expiring each year. Members serve without pay and have the responsibility of maintaining and financing the schools within the district. They represent the will of the people with respect to local education, and formulate the general policies under which the school operates. GUIDANCE COUNSELOR Gerald Devan SUPERVISING PRINCIPAL Francis B. Sprague TO THE CLASS OF 1963 You have graduated from High School. Your education has just begun. The world of books, of formulas, of ideas, of government, of religion, of beauty, of creation, of people and what they stand for, of problems and their solutions, of things which build and things which destroy - all this and much else awaits your investigation and understanding. You can read and you can reason. From now on your education consists in using these skills to acquire many, many more facts, in sorting and evaluating these facts, and in using all this toward a two-fold goal of appreciation and creation. The more you understand and appreciate, the greater the measure of fullness which will come into your life. The degree of creative living you achieve will determine your effectiveness and usefulness as a person. A house well-built, a book well-written, a child well-taught, a disease cured, are but simple examples of creative thought and action. Living and learning take place at the same time. When one ceases, the other ceases also. Many people stop living long before they die. It could be that they think there is nothing more to learn, or nothing more to do.

This program is independently conceived and administered and is not associated with the National Honor Society. The plan is called Vanguard. The plan is set up for students in grades seven through twelve. Students qualify each quarter on the basis of credit points earned. Credits are assigned to the average grade received in each subject for the quarter. The number of credits needed to qualify is determined by the number of subjects carried. The plan places a premium on excellence in all subjects taken rather than on excellence in just one or two. A tentative system of awards is set up to promote public recognition of superior effort and to give academic excellence the recognition it de- serves. TOP ROW: R. VanKorb, R. Doty, J. Anderson, W.

Zke Senior Band The 1963 version of the Senior Band consists of approximately 60 members. The six graduating seniors have witnessed a complete transformation. Their early memories are of a 35 piece group without some of the more unusual instruments that have been added since that time. Russ VanKorb was the sole flutist in the 1959 Spring Concert; now he boasts of a harem of five girl flutists. Marcia Berman and Helen Sharrow were the third clarinet players in a five piece clarinet section; now they are the solo clarinets of an eighteen piece clarinet group with five of these playing the first part. Although Gretchen Sprague’s section has remained constant in number she has seen freshmen trombonists playing at a level previously attained by some upperclassmen. Dianne Doyle and Warren King were pioneers. Dianne saw her section switch from alto-horns to the much more intricate french horn. Warren became’the first timpani player here and gained a great deal of recognition. Variety and travel have been the bywords of this group. In 1959 the band appeared on WPTZ-TV in Plattsburg, N. Y. and during that same year gained much recognition by being chosen one of the five best bands at the Tir State Festival in Cambridge. N. Y. In 1960, exchange was the word. Home and away concerts were arranged with the Elizabethtown and Keeseville, N. Y. Central Schools and with the Adams, Massachusetts High School Band. The 1961 Band enjoyed two exchanges. The never to be forgotten concert at Beekmantown, N. Y. , where we gained much praise from the people of the Plattsburg area, was a booster, indeed. This feeling, however, was to be further capped by an exhilarating visit to Camden, Maine. We not only enjoyed their fine New England hospitality but we were greeted with a standing ovation at the conclusion of our individual performance on the concert stage. We could have stayed on there forever. In 1962 we experienced another standing ovation during a return visit to Adams, Massachusetts. Our reception there was stellar and many lasting friendships ensued. An outstanding event of that same year was the hosting of the famed M. A. I. Band in an exchange concert. We were proud to equal the performance of such a fine musical aggregation. Before the memories of 1962 disappear let us not forget the North American Festival at Lake Placid, N. Y. , where we played for the coronation ceremonies and a hockey game at the Olympic Arena. We must not forget our appearances at the 1961 and 1962 Essex County Fair, the wonderful show people that we met, and the thrilling experience of playing for stage shows. Nor can we help remembering our Christmas Eve Radio Broadcast over WEAV, with its musical trip to Santa's Toy Shop. Last but not least we'll remember our latest innovation - the Pop Concerts, with the Junior Band waitresses, punch and cookies, card tables, guest conductors and that cannon blast. A trip to North Kingston, Rhode Island and the cutting of our first record provide the topping for this year's events. These are unequalled experiences that have been truly educational and will provide us with a background that will better enable us to enjoy life in the future. FIFTH ROW: R. Mather, L. Brockney, W.

The Latin Club of Willsboro Central School numbers forty-three. Great strides have been made since the inception of this club in 1956-57. A memory book has been kept covering these years, and it is of interest to find in its pages snapshots, programs, and other material that represents the club's many activities. The officers elected for 1962-63 are as follows: Consul Primus - Warren Cross: Consul Se-cundus - William Dickerson: Scriba - Colleen Anctil; Quaestor - John Anderson; Cenatrix Prima - Jane Feltt; Centarix Secunda - Linda Lincoln; Lictor - Lewis Clark.

MASON Class History A group of about fifty squirming, enthusiastic youngsters embarked upon a seemingly endless journey through school in September of 1951. Now in 1963, looking back on it in retrospect, the time has passed swiftly. Our first six years of school were quite uneventful, with the exceptions of class trips to such places as Make-Believe Land, Storytown, Frontiertown, and the Plattsburgh Air Force Base, which were unforgettable and most delightful. In the fall of 1957 our group entered junior high school, apprehensive perhaps, but ready and willing to move onward. At first we didn't make too big an impression, except for winning second prize for our snow statue, a rocket, during the 1958 Winter Carnival. In eighth grade we all joined Mrs. Angevine’s Citizenship Club. From the money collected in dues, we went to the Elizabethtown Museum and to Fort Ticonderoga. In 9th grade we began to think seriously about making money. Although we had only two dances that year, our original idea of a beatnik hop” brought in about $55, quite a lot of money for a group of freshmen and their first dance. In 10th grade we had the annual sophomore stationery drive which was quite successful. We also sold little name pins. Our dormant spirits actually came to life in 11th grade. We battled with the seniors for one reason after another, mainly over Pepsi-Cola bottle caps. We had a magazine drive, which wasn't quite as successful as previous drives. We were the first class to decorate Room 301 for Christmas. In May we were given the privilege of putting on a dinner for the district P. T. A. two days before our Junior Prom. Then came our big night, ” after months of planning and making yellow paper roses. The gym was most attractively decorated with a Blue Moon, the theme of the prom, shining over the stage made to represent a terrace. After a party at the Bermans and breakfast at the Van Korbs, we fell into our beds, exhausted but ecstatic. Finally September, 1962 rolled around, and at last we were seniors, busying ourselves with the yearbook, selling banners, candy, Christmas Cards, and making preparations for our Winter Carnival and Ball, and finally the Senior Play, in hopes to make enough money for the annual trip to Florida. The members of the class of 1963 are deeply grateful to their parents, their teachers, and all those who made this journey so interesting and so beneficial.
