But as much as it’s true that time is a thief, time MAYPEARL HIGH SCHOOL I 16 also leaves something in exchange. MIDLOTHIAN HERITAGE HIGH SCHOOL I 18 “With time comes experience – and however uncertain you may be about MIDLOTHIAN HIGH SCHOOL I 21 the rest of the world, at least about your own work you will be sure.” MILFORD HIGH SCHOOL I 28 It is my hope that this year’s Graduation issue will be both informative and OVILLA CHRISTIAN SCHOOL I 28 endearing. PALMER HIGH SCHOOL I 29 In the future, when you look back to this issue, remember and cherish your RED OAK HIGH SCHOOL I 31 high school memories.
