Signed and Sealed Class of ’54 CUSS hlStORV As we near the end of our high school careers, we begin to wish we were back in the seventh grade again. At the close of school in the sixth grade, Donald Sutherland left us when his father’s tractor tipped over. In the seventh grade, we were divided into two homerooms, Mrs. Margaret Joyce’s and Mrs. Ethel Gath’s. Although we had our ups and downs in that year, it was a happy one. In our eighth grade, Mr. Carlyle Carmody was our homeroom teacher. Although we were in the same homeroom, the class was divided. Since Mrs. Ethel Gath left, we had Mrs. Mary Baker from Wellsville as our English teacher. Ronald Sweet, Irene Hulburt, Darrell Brown, Raymond Halsey, and Edgar Silsby left that year making the class somewhat smaller. During that year, Charlotte Case was welcomed to our eighth grade class. In our freshman year, Mrs. Marie McFadden was our homeroom teacher. Mary Button, Clair Van-Schaick, and Virginia Kibbe were Welcomed by our ninth grade class. Francis Hann, John Atwell, William Elster, and Richard Clark left the freshmen. In June of our freshman year, Ann Wood left to attend school in Canisteo. In our sophomore year, Donald Kuzak joined our class, but left us soon. David McHenry entered our class, and Irene Hurlburt was welcomed back by her old classmates. Douglas Wheaton also left for the Marines.
