A school holds graduation commencement exercises to bid farewell to its students and to signify that its students have successfully completed their secondary school studies. Although a student leaves for employment, a school of higher learning, or military service, and perhaps a new address, he is highly aware that those things which he has learned and loved at his school will always remain with him. So it is with us, the Class of 1965, as Sharon High School sends us off to our challenging futures. It would be impossible to forget our accumulated knowledge, our wonderful friendships, or all of our good times. Sharon High has meant too much to us to ever forget. Therefore, we have composed a book which tries to relate our many wonderful memories of our four years at Sharon High School. Although you send us off into the world, Sharon High School, you will always be with us. 3 Mr. Francis Roman When we first walked through the doors of Sharon High School as the Class of 1965, completely confused by the maze of corridors, he directed us to the auditorium. Days later, as we continued to be frustrated by our seemingly complex schedules, he was there to put us on the right trail. Then, for four years, it was his radiant smile, his priceless sense of humor, and his continual air of good feeling that made us really feel that Sharon High School was our school. Greeting us in the foyer, meeting us in the corridors, or waving good-bye to us as we boarded our buses, he always seemed to try his best to brighten the day. This is why we have dedicated our yearbook to you, Mr. Francis Roman ; because it is you who symbolizes the fine spirit of Sharon High School. — Bicentennial of Sharon "That under God through our forefathers we have en- joyed invaluable Liberties & Privileges.

ROW sharon hi GH SCHOOL Pond STREET Sharon Ma SSACHUSETTS Dear u.iss isewton ana n-r. a.onsavage, During the past four years we have changed from two hundred individuals into one unified class. This change is largely aue to you, our class advisors. It is because of our many class projects that we nave become unifieu, ana be- cause of your guidance ana unaerstanding that we were able to successfully accomplish these projects. As we leave oharon nigh, to again become two hunared individuals, we will each taite v.ith us the responsibility and organization which you have helped us to develop. iou have guided us as a class, but tore important, you have helped us to cevelop as individuals. And so as x-resicent, I would lixe to thamc you in oe- half of the Class of 1965 for your guidance and understanding. Sincerely yours, itonald Jacoos President, Class of 1965 Administration Sharon High could not function without its administration and guidance departments. Mr. Dowd, Mr. Roman, and Mr. Danielson, in their roles as administrators, have effective- ly initiated and maintained many high stand- ards which produce the fine quality of stu- dents at Sharon High School. The adminis- tration department is also responsible for the fine reputation Sharon High School has earn- ed in both curriculum and social activities. The guidance department, while working along with the administration department, is Mr. Danielson Mr. Dowd First it was the twist, and now the monkey. 'Car 54, where are you?" Mr. Roman Guidance extremely helpful to the student body when any problem arises. Mr. Barrows, Miss Haley, Mr. Soule, and Mr. Konsavage devote much time, energy, and thought to both the high school days of the students and their future lives. Thus, the guidance and administration de- partments work closely with the students to produce intelligent, well-rounded individuals. Without the hard work of these departments, Sharon High and its students would not be as highly regarded as they are. "Oops, I sent another one to the wrong college." Mr. Konsavage 9 Mr. Soule Developing the Minds of Youth Sharon High School strives to pre- pare its students for their roles in society by introducing them to their civic responsibilities, the use of language as a means of expression, and the technol- ogy of science and mathematics. These most important tools of life are molded and sharpened in many ways during the four years a student spends at Sharon High School. Mr. John S. Blonchon Mr. Roger C.
