We believe in our Community We believe in its Past - in the men and the women who have lived before us, whose toil made the land productive, whose foresight founded our schools, whose devotion built our homes and our churches. We believe in its Present - in the men, the women, and the children about us. We believe that by working together, we can accomplish much for the good of our city. We believe in its Future - in the men, the women, and the children who will come after us. We believe that out of our hopes and labors now will grow a greater Farrell, democratic, prosperous and strong, an honor to our citizens, to our State, and to our Nation.

Mr. John Hetra, Superintendent of Schools
The Farrell School District is proud to acknowledge and to participate in the Farrell Jubilee Celebration, commemorating fifty years of growth and progress in the city of Farrell.
We are happy to know that the educational system of the city has been recognized and included in this auspicious celebration. Our gratitude is extended to those who had the foresight and the inspiration to see and meet the educational needs of the youth of our community. Our expression includes the contributions made by the present and previous Boards of Education, by the teachers, the parents and the friends of the school, during this long span of years. We are mindful of and appreciate the assistance of the city administrators, both the present and the past.
A Jubilee celebration inevitably brings about this type of retrospection, appraising the personal efforts and the material contributions and growth of a school system as it affects the growth of a city.
At this fiftieth year point, we are all happy the citizentry, business and industry for this healthy and proud milestone. However, equally as important as it is to look back, it is a necessity to project our interests, planning and work toward a progressive and continuous school program for the future.
In our celebration, it is a necessary opportunity to take stock and inventory, make needed appraisals of the work done and mistakes made. The cornerstone for the education of the school system of the city of Farrell was laid fifty years ago; individual cornerstones were laid for important buildings and projects from time to time for the physical, material and curricular needs of the schools.
Let us at this time regard our fiftieth year as a significnt cornerstone for the next fifty years, dedicating our concerted efforts from all the material and personal sources of the community toward having a better and a more progressive school system continuously, so that at the Centennial Celebration, those who have the opportunity and the privilege to look back during that momentous occasion will extend to those who preceded them a well earned expression well done, faithful servants, and that these accomplishments will be a spur and motivation for endless work in education and civic progress. To those of the present and to those who preceded us, we wish to say in the same spirit an important job well done. We wish to express our sincere best wishes for a successful and happy Farrell Jubilee.
John Hetra
