I - -e new ' 't N I as 4- 6,8 . V f-Q , s lass ltgl ilaisturp FRESHMAN YEAR In September of the year nineteen hundred and Fifty-two. a group of frightened and bewildered freshmen entered the portals of Kcyport High School. We came from the grammar schools of Keyport, Union Beach, Holmdel and Raritan Township. We didn't even know each other! Upperclassmen either ignored us or gave us disdainful smiles. After we were assigned to homerooms and found a place to call our own. we felt better. In a few weeks, we no longer got lost in the halls or entered the wrong classrooms. Soon many of us were eager to participate in school activities. Some joined the band, went out for football, or took part in some club work. It was toward the end of our first year that construction work began on the addition to our school. Before we realized it, school was over. exams were behind us. and the first stage of our high school ca- reer had ended. SOPHOMORE YEAR Now being acquainted with rules and regulations, we set out with books and studies to struggle through another year. The new wing was now ready for use and included two new shops. a spacious library, and a beautiful. big cafeteria. We were pleasantly surprised to find rooms painted in pastel shades. Many more of our classmates participated in school activities. Some joined the Mixed Chorus: two of our girls made varsity cheer- leading: many of the girls made the twirling squadg and one ofour members even got a part in the senior play. Arsenic and Old lace. After passing the halfway mark of ourjourney. we had a feeling of accomplishment. A few had dropped out. but the rest of us were looking forward to being upperclassmen. JUNIOR YEAR This was the year we organized and elected class officerswloseph Pinto was chosen president: Katherine Davis. vice-president: Catherine Burrowes. secretary: and Jane Cantoni, treasurer. Miss Tombleson and Mr. Anderson were the class advisers. More and more students were taking part in school affairs. ina cluding the newly organized Magic Keys. Some participated in Free- holders' Day. Boys, State, and Girls' State. By now. our boys were making regular places on the varsity football. basketball, and baseball squads. A big thrill of our junior year came when we received our class rings. To raise money. we sold candy and held two dances, Harvest Moon and Blossom Time. In addition to being financial successes. these dances were a lot of fun for all who attended. The last important social event on our calendar was the Junior-Senior Dinner Dance. which is sponsored each year by the Mothers' Club. Our dance was held at the Cabin in the Sky in the Highlands. For weeks, it was the chief' topic of conversation. The long dreaded final exams came and went and we were ready for a well-earned vacation before September rolled around. SENIOR YEAR September finally came and the big seniors were back to rule the court. Pictures were taken during the first week of school and class officers were chosen. They were John Pinto. presidt-ntg Bill Neihart. vice-presidentg Virginia Eastmond. secretary: and Bernadine Stopkie. treasurer. Miss Tombleson continued as class adviser and Mr. White took the place of Mr, Anderson. who was no longer a member ofthe faculty, December came and so did the Winter VVonderland Ball. jane Cantoni, chairman, and her committee worked hard to make this a night to remember. Class meetings and more class meetings were held to make plans for our trip to Washington, D. C. March 14 finally came and we were om The Capitol. Mount Vernon. The Smithsonian Institute. the tired feet. the fun on the bus will never be forgotten. After our return from Washington, things began to happen rap- idly. Open House was held in April. at which time our King and Queen were crowned. In May came the annual senior play. a rollicking com- edy. jenny Kissed Me. Our senior year saw the beginning of a chapter of the National Honor Society to which the following seniors were elected: Kay Boggs. John Bottger. .jane Cantoni. Katie Davis. Shirley Doyle. Ann Harries. Lynn Olsen. Ruth Ritt. Bernadine Stopkie. and Margaret Vena. Our social life came to an end with tht-Junior-Senior Dinner Dance inkjune. When we were measured for caps and gowns early in the year. graduation seemed along way off. The last two weeks passed all too swiftly--rehearsals. class day. Baccalaureate. and finally graduation! 5 - Y 917
