'l ' ' wif Supl. pfldfftdlld- fqcfuancemenl Congratulations Seniors! Yearbook staff and sponsor are to be con- gratulated upon building an excellent annual during the school year 19514-HSE. Each gradu- ating class strives to excel the preceding one in our annual publication. Many believe this book is the best ever published in the Sperry Schools. Just as we improve our annual each year, efforts have been made to build strong educa- tional departments from grades one to twelve. Many departments in the Sperry Schools are second to none ln Oklahoma. As a result of the physical improvements, lt has been possible to enrich the curriculum, with strong emphasis in the three R's. School morale, school spirit and attitu- des are in direct proportion to improvements made in the physical plant and curriculum. Well organized extra-curricular activities have been developed for both boys and girls, ln brief, Sperry has a good school for the youth in grades one to twelve.
