Twice recently substitute teachers have voluntarily come into my office to tell me how much they enjoyed the atmosphere of Kearny and working with our students.  These comments are typical of others I have heard from various visitors regarding the friendliness they have experienced here. So, as the school year nears the end, I would like to express, through the K.H.S. News, my appreciation to my fellow administrators, faculty members, staff, and to all of you loyal Kearny students for a very good year. Your cooperation, willing work and cordiality have made things very pleasant and productive.

Congratulations to the graduating class of 1953. That you have progressed, physically, mentally, emotionally and socially, is attested by the fine record that you, as a class, have made. I am certain the experiences you have had at Kearny will be of long lasting value and will contribute, Happily, toward the goals you hope to achieve. Working with you for the past three years has been a pleasure and an inspiration. Good-bye, good luck, and my sincere best wishes to all of you.

-Cleon Davis
