Sophomores, as well as others, became easily distracted. SAGEBRUSH PRESENTS EVENTS OF ’63-64 YEAR Dances, such as the Sadie Hawkins event, were at- tended by eager Brush High students. Faculty members, such as Mr. Price and Mrs. Van Dyke, displayed an avid interest in Brush High School and its students. Office provided many opportunities to gain practical experience for future years. Memories that remain from this year will be of people; students and teachers alike: the work they accomplished, the fun they had, and the trouble they devised. All who came to Brush High School contributed their share to a more-than-successful year. Faculty, freshmen, sophomores, juniors and seniors were all a little sad to see the end come. The high school's marching band, composed of ambi- tious students, excelled in various contests.

BRUSH HIGH MEMORABLE Sleepy freshmen boys raised the flag every morning; while on the inside of the building students said the pledge of allegience. Below, Mike Lally and Tom Harbert utilize time in a biology class. A school is not a school without people, and dur- ing the 1963-64 school year, Brush High School had more than it could hold. The first day enrollment at BHS totaled 357, one of the largest on record. Students were everywhere. They filled the halls, classrooms, and lockers to over-capacity. The old building groaned and strained under the load as stu- dents did everything they had done in the past, but in a better way. New records were set; both scholastic and ath- letic. Among the proudest were the girls of the class of '66, who boasted seven 4.00’s on the semes- ter honor roll. Freshmen were more plen- tiful than ever at BHS. Physics class proved in- triguing to two senior girls.
