Grades three, four, five, and six are eagerly awaiting the first of February. It is at this time that we expect to move into the new elementary school on Pruyne I-lill. The first and most important reason for the building of the elementary school was insufficient room in the high school. Two second grades and two third grades held classes in the Presbyterian and Episcopal Churches because there was no room in the high school for them. The reason for building the school up on Pruyne Hill, instead of putting another ad- dition on the high school, was because there was no more available land okayed by the state. Mr. Nidkerson, Elementary Supervisor, will have his office and staff up on the hill. Miss Pagett, the school nurse, will commute between the two schools. The new school will provide big rooms for each grade, plus all that are necessary such as music rooms, art rooms, and a combined cafeteria and gymnasium. At the end of the day the school buses will pick up the elementary students, then come down to the high school for those students. The new elementary school has an ideal location on top of the hill overlooking Bainbridge. The contractors, I-lalloway Associates and Carl Hutchinson, are to be praised for the superb job on the new school. We are proud that our community is interested enough in the education of its young people to supply them with this fine school. The schoolias it nears completion. mn 1 '

Speak, S - and Sahel Spvuft As we look back through the pages of our diary, we recall the many hours of enjoyment provided for us by sports. Bainbridge can be proud of the following that their teams have always had whether they were win- ners or losers. It is a special thrill for the spectators, as well as those participating, to come from behind and go on to victory, but is is a greater achievement to handle the outcome with good sportsmanship. The players must learn to take criticism, with a smile, the spectators, to be courteous through de- feat or victory. All in all, we will always remember the good times and speak fondly of those exciting hours spent at the matches and games. There we have learned some of the finest les- sons in building good character - and win-lose-or draw - we'll always remember the Bainbridge chant Are you set? - You betl
