As a student and especially as asenior of the Papillion Public School youdo not have to be told of the magnitudeand importance of an education in thiscomplex world in which you live. Youhave prepared yourself for the greattask that lies before you in every gradein every course and in every activity.

Just over the Horizon you willtake your place in the adult world. Youwill have the knowledge; you will havethe know how; and if you use your Godgiven ambition to put these abilities totheir best uses you will have happinessand success.There will be trying times ahead,as there has always been trouble in thisworld; but I am confident that you, thegraduate of PHS, will acquit yourselfwith honor and distinction, no matterwhere you go after gr actuation.
