Alcester High School - Cubette Yearbook (Alcester, SD)

Text from Pages 1 - 80 of the 1965 volume:

THE CUBETTE Alcester High School Alcester, South Dakota Foreword This year was basically the same as any high school year; we studied, had fun, and experienced sad moments of trial and error. There were games and dances; voices were hoarse from Pep Club root- ing and singing. Some of us had brief moments of glory in sports, music, and dramatic productions. All shared the hopeless reality of examinations, dead- lines, and semester grades. These im- pressions are only a few that were pack- ed into this full year which compose the crossroads for our learning. We hope you will enjoy the If65 Cubette. 2 Table of Contents Students Faculty Administration Strive to Make Our School Great 5 Music Festivities Organizations Are Designed for Fun and Learning 29 Sports Pep Club Cheerleaders Display Our Fighting School Spirit 51 I Jamie picks his prizes for Behind stage at junior play practice selling magazines.

The four high school years has given the 42 graduates many fond mem- ories. Some will look back with regret because of the opportunities they didn't use; but fortunately, many can look forward to the future with courage due to their adequate preparation. Many fun-filled hours were spent preparing for their two class plays. Several senior boys found much satisfaction and pleasure in their hours spent participating in sports. Be- ingthe guests of the Juniors at the Junior-Senior Banquet was another high - light of the year. They also enjoyed DON ANDERSON FFA - 2 -3; Football Manager- 3-4; Track-1-4; BasketbalH-4. going to Omaha for Skip Day.

Besides English and American History, their elective courses in- cluded home economics, German, typing,short- hand,geometry, physic s , and agriculture. Thirty-six members composed the smallest class in high school. Beth Koops returned to Sioux Center after spending several months at AHS; and Carla Anderson moved to Cincinnati. Ohio.
