lil W EX. if lf. ci-10 O i-xxGl'l S The key word for EL CAMlNO'S first four years is Growth. This year, 1954, El Camino High School has come of age. As we graduate our first class it is interest- ing to look back over the preceding four years and recount the progress that has taken place. ln September, 1950, a full-time principal, eight full-time and two part-time faculty members, with 225 students began the first classes. The 30's wing of classrooms and the woodshop made up the plant that first year. By September, 1951, the faculty had grown to nineteen full-time and two part- time members. The enrollment of the second year was 585 students. The office had one full-time secretary. Eight new classrooms in the 20's wing fart, home- making, and Commercial! had been added. For the school year, 1952-53, El Camino had an enrollment of 1014 with a staff of 41 teachers. The office staff had three full-time employees. Facilities completed during the year were the 40's wing of classrooms, the annex buildings, auto shops, bus garage, boys' and girls' shower rooms, and the multiple purpose room. Eagle Field was made ready for spring track and field events. In the Spring of '53 the El Camino Parents Club and Student Body began a fund drive to put lights on Eagle Field. The school year of 1953-54 brought 1535 students and sixty full-time teachers, including the principal and two deans. The office staff had four full-time em- ployees and a cafeteria staff was added. This year saw the completion of the girls' gym, the 50's and 60's wings, more auto shops and shop class buildings, the office wing, the California Cadet Corps building, Music building, the tennis shower rooms, and the stadium seats on the west side of Eagle Field, and the Cafeteria. The boys' gym was also started, and the light fund drive was gaining support of the community. Memorable events of this school year were the first football game on Eagle Field, the first dance held in the new girls' gym, the opening of the cafeteria, the first annual Military Ball, the Senior Ball and the hourly traffic iam in the main hall.
