A school building is constructed of steel
and cement, strong and permanent, but it is designed to accommodate an
ever-changing flow of students. Year after year buses empty their loads each
morning, and people stream in waves into the hallways and classrooms. To the
rhythm of bells, tides of people wash in and finally back to the buses,
leaving the building empty. Carl Sandburg in his poem �Skyscraper� says:
"It is the men and women, boys and girls so
poured in and out all day that give the building a soul of dreams and
thoughts and memories."
As each individual forms a part of the
mass, so each personality contributes to the whole of Nederland High
School�s soul�that abstract thing we call school spirit. Soon the seniors of
1967 will be leaving this student body. With them they will take thoughts
and memories, many of which were molded in these halls and classrooms.
Before they leave, we present the 1967 P1IX1T, an abstract collection of the
people and events that filled this past year.
