Tekonsha, Michigan Our friends were special to us, together we learned from teachers, tests and life’s many problems. We went through a lot together, the joy of victory, good grades, graduation, fads and foods. Our friends helped us when we didn’t have a date for the dance, forgot our lunch, or had to study for a test. We will always treasure the memories of the fun-filled Homecoming week we shared together. Through the years we have learned that the most precious memory of all will be the memory of our special friends. Tracee Vincent and Annette Brewer.

The variety of courses range from the required classes like math, science, history and English to the electives of fine arts, drafting, business, home ec. gym and more. Many classes were full, but others had very few students. It was not uncommon to have less than a dozen students. The foreign language section acquired a new course this year and cut one. German was dropped. while Spanish was added. Many advanced courses were offered, with one in biology, and one in science, in typing, and another in math. When the year finally came to a close, students' minds had been filled with information, exercised, and tested. Some failed, but most had passed that big hurdle.
