They are the teach- ers that gave usour real start in education and in life. They taught us to read our first words out of a book and they taught us how to Write. Our tirst arithmetic and music was also learned there. Without these essentials in learning, we could not have continued our higher education. Our elementary grade school contains youngsters from grades one to five. They are under the guidance of the elementary grade school principal, Mr. George Dively. During the school year they participate in many of the high school activities. One of the high- 16 lights of the grade school year is their an- nual operetta. A matinee performance is given in the high school and an evening per- formance to the parents and friends. They also attend the matinee of our junior and sen- ior plays. When spring comes they all take a part in the May Day program, The fourth and fifth grades have a chorus which takes a part in the county music festival every year. These events pass and soon these youngsters find themselves in high school, ready to graduate as We are. We, the class of 1956, wish to thank the grade school facul- ty for those first memorable years of our edu- cation which we received from them. They will never be forgotten.
