I THE ELM LEAF ELM VALLEY HIGH SCHQUL Graduating Class 95 mt tx Q f FOFCVVOFCJ e scarcely need a book a record of school events durmg the xmportant years of our llves to remind us of the joys pleasures and happy Clays we have spent together We have trled to record ln words and pxcture the lmportant events of this school year beyond the realm of academrc subjects We hope you get as much pleasure readmg It as we antxclpate ln the future as we return to 1ts pages and llve again the memory of our school days CLASS OF FIFTY FIVE of 1 p ati tk XX ' if ff 1, 'X X ' N f .

BOARD OF EDUCATION The graduating class of 1955 would like to talce this opportunity to express our gratitude to the board of education for their constant interest during our high school career. We feel they have been very generous in permitting the use of all school facilities necessary for our education and enjoyment. We believe they have provided us with the best teachers and equipment available. Problems they have, and we are not kidding. Some have been solved, others are increasing. They got consolidation underway and then due to rising costs there is a need for more money. 'T he money is voted and then due to increased enrollment they need more building. A jump from 550 in 1945 to 718 in 1954 is only part of the story-by 1960 there will be over 820 in the district. With a present increase of 168 since 1945 and an anticipated increase of 270 by 1960, it is not difficult to see the need for more building, and especially more need for a larger high school, that will be here before a building can be completed. Board of education, we lcnow you have a problem and feel certain the people of Elm Valley will follow your leadership in providing the needs of our district. Again may we say thanks for a job well done. CLASS OF 1955 4 s"""i 'f 1 ...":.f... SUPT. R. B. WARNER MR.
