HAPPINESS IS A PRGUD TRADITION If happiness is aproud tradition, the class of '71 has a rea- son to be happy. One hundred and twenty-nine strong, we have come a long way, since the sixty first graders walked ,hrough these doors for the first time. Fate has always smiled on the Class of ,7l. We were the first seventh grade class to occupy the Junior High building. It was a time of adjustment for all of us. A few are still ad- justing. With the Eighth Grade came the feeling of superior- ity, for then we were looked upon as the older group. At last we reached our Freshman year and the long awaited privileges were ours. But with these benefits came the realization of the work of the four long years ahead. As Sophomores We had a goal to strive for as We began planning for the Junior-Senior Prom. With the closing of St. Joe Prep came the arrival of many new faces. In addition to bring strength of number, they brought strength of character to our class. Our Junior year, 1969-1970, was highlighted by many memorable events. Success was on our side in the athletic department. Many Juniors contributed to the capture ofthe Title of Class A State Football Runner-ups. The climax was the Junior-Senior Prom, well worth all our hard work. As Seniors, we no longer had someone to look up to. The responsibility of leadership was in our hands and it was our duty to provide a good example for the lower classmen. Receiving class rings and posing for our portraits were two of the high points of our Senior year. Even the tedious col- lege board exams did not discourage us because they were reminders of our oncoming graduation. We realized that, though we were ending an important stage in our lives, we were approaching a much more serious phase.
