THE JUNIOR CLASS We, the Junior Class, hope this year will remain in our minds as one of our happiest. It will be our last year in dear old A. H. S. For three years we have worked together and have had many happy experiences. Next year we shall enter the new George Washington High School. The school will bear an honorable name. We think of this with great pride. Alexandria was the hometown of Washington — naturally a contributory factor in the naming of the school. Washington was the first man to donate money for public schools in the United States. Our class will be the first graduating class. Many of the ensuing customs of the new school will depend upon us for their installation. If we wish to start new methods, our willingness and cooperation will count. We shall try to make our Student Council what it should be, and we shall attempt to make the school feel that the Council is an integral part of its development. We want the school paper to be bigger and better. We want more school spirit. The status of our school depends in large measure upon the accomplish- ment of these things. The following are some comments on the new school by members of the class: Barbara Hudnutt remarked that the building will be “very beautiful.” Virginia Nichols thinks that a new school will be “elegant.” Bobby Roberts says that the new school will be a “great improvement.” Jane Dunn says she has always looked forward to having a new high school in Alexandria and she is “quite proud” to be numbered among the first graduates of George Washington High School.
