soon they will learn there is no
easy way to achieve one's goals,
Only the stairway through high
school leading to Grade 13 can
offer any sure hope for achieve-
ment.
At the summit of the stair-
way to Grade 13 stands a door.
Beyond the door gleams a land
filled with milk and honey.
Many roads lead thereto, Some
are steep; some are rocky; none
are smooth. This is life and at
the end of each path lies all the,
treasures of life; wealth, hap-
piness and love.
Only one key unlocks this
door. It is the key of know-
ledge, concentration and hard
work, Every person should use
his talents, his determination
and his mind to get this key. If
he does this, he will be success-
ful and happy.
In the modern world, the
surest path to the door of suc-
cess is Grade 13. Complete it
and you will have the key to
open any door.
