Grade 1 Grade 2 and 3 Grade 4 1950 - 1951 September-School started with a bang! Our building had its face lifted and all our rooms were lovely in their new colors. We always look forward to the arrival of the student teachers from Kent State University and Septmeber 25th brought them to us. October-Our hot lunch program began with full meals fyum, yumll-watch your figures. The an- nual Curtis magazine drive was carried on this month. A very profitable drive for the four upper grades. There were Halloween parties given by the room mothers at school for grades one through six. The home of Dick Pfenniger was the scene of ghosts and witches to frighten the eighth graders. November-Always a busy month and this one gave us an extended Thanksgiving Vacation be- cause of the deep snow. We enjoyed it very much but Woe is me said Mother. December-Our new coach Joe Huth came to us. Basketball began in the Kent Recreation League for boys of grades six and seven. Grades two, three and four visited Kent State University Industrial Art exhibit and enjoyed a puppet show. The annual Christmas party was given by the P. T. A. Eighth grade girls presented a play, Toyland Secrets and grades one, two and three, the' 'Shoemaker and Five Little Elves . Santa was there and remem- bered us all. Christmas Vacation until January 2, 1951. January-Back to work. Some people found new lights in their rooms. Eighth grade girls finished the work on United Nations flag. Some of our boys joined with Kent State University School Junior Hi for basketball, the coach being Bob Ludick, our former coach and student teacher. Grade 8 Grade 7 and 8 Grade 5 and 6 February-The annual seventh and eighth grade Valentine dance and party with hearts, cupids and valentine spirits floating through the air was en- joyed by everyone, including our chaperones. Every- one in the building was thoughtfully remembered as St. Valentine would have done. Again grades two, three and four had an interesting field trip- Fenn's Dairy fchocoilate milk for alll and the Kent Post Office. March-Spring is in the air! A field trip to Mr. Coe Ellsworth's farm, Fenn Dairy and the Kent Post Office for the iirst grade. The annual basket ball dinner with awards presented by coaches Joe Huth and Bob Ludick was sponsored by the P. T. A. Spring Vacation began on March 17. April-How could April and the eighth grade tests arrive so quickly? Oh! How we wish we had studied a little more. May-The all day exchange visits of the eighth grades of Kent State University School and Frank-- lin come in May. We all become acquainted with one another and with the school procedure in gen- eral. Nofw we are ready for the Spring All High dance at Kent State University School, lwatch the primpingl and for the entertaining of the K. S. U. S. people at our Spring party and dance. June-This is the wonderful but sorry to go graduation night. May we all remember the im- portant things with which all our teachers at Franklin Local School have helped us. Live a hap- py life through friendship, helpfulness and good citizenship. Eighth Grade Committee Helen McDonald Louaine Taylor
