Tujictuwtal Uieii The perking lot, in keeping with the rest of Arcadia High, was very attractive. It was used con- stantly during school hours and in the evenings during games, dances and other functions. The stadium on the north side of the football field took on a new life during games as 1800 Titans and visitors cheered their teams.

In addition to games, girls and boys P.E. classes, pom pon and cheerleading practices were conducted there. The parking area was nearly finished with the open- ing of school.

Members of the faculty not only spent many hours in the classroom, but also sponsored many student activities.
