Pride Brings About Years of Progress Progressing from an idea to reality and surviving 25 years of change and expansion, our model city has witnessed the growth of Midwest City High School from its origin at the site of Jarman Junior High to the present home of the Bombers. Both share the vitality of youth. From a wheatfield to the origi- nal square mile of small homes and streets has grown a city with 65,000 inhabitants and 25 square miles of modern homes, businesses, schools, churches, and industry. From an original student body of l5O, MCHS has swelled to nearly 1900 students in a building containing almost IOO rooms. MCHS students gain understanding through attending our city's churches. fi 3. .tl ,L -tr tw, ,gi W S f,.t , gpjfs wrap! ., 5' wiogil-if Cfli Robert Helton prepares for Midwest City's Silver Anniversary Week by polish ing our 'sign' of progress located in the Downtown Shopping Center.

A student oversleeps after late hours of homework, hurriedly dresses, and fights the rush hour traffic to arrive before the last park- ing space is taken. After the devotional at 8:10, there begins a rigorous routine of six classes, including a study hall. Between classes a new friend is found, gossip is exchanged, and forgotten books are retrieved from lockers. Sometime during the fourth hour, a welcome thirty- minute lunch break gives students a breather from tests, lec- tures and drills. Two hours of class to go, unless Friday after- noon brings a pep assembly. The final bell sounds at 2:45. Students hurry to catch a bus, begin sports practice, or attend one of the many after-school club meetings. Evening brings a sports event, a date, a part-time job, or preparation for an- other school day.
