Class History In September, 1959 t forty terrified students entered Barre High School to begin their year as Freshmen. We were frightened by the wild threats of the upperclassmen. We soon learned that their bark was greater than their bite. Miss Long and Mr. Pitisci were waiting to guide us during our first year at B. H. S. At our first class meeting, our main duty was to elect class officers. They were as follows: Stephen Perkins, President; John Lamacchia, Vice-President; Marcia Potter, Secretary; Mary Ann Mertzic, Treasurer; Robert Janulevicus, Student Council Representative. Blue and gold were chosen as our class colors. The Freshmen Assembly soon came and passed. Next came the Magazine Drive. We are proud to say that our class was the first Freshman class in twenty-seven years to place second in this drive. The Freshman class was well represented during the basketball season. Participants were: Ned Berthiaume, David Dansereau, Roger Gariepy, Robert Janulevicus, Richard Lamacchia, Angelo Salvadore, Jeffrey Watson, and William Whigham on the Junior Varsity team, and Thomas Taylor on the Varsity team. Leslie Teagno, Myrle Taylor, and Mary Ann Mertzic played on the girls ' team. Four members of the class participated in the Prize Speaking Contest. They were: Marcia Potter, placing fourth for the girls; Laurence Gould, placing second; William Whigham and Lewis Valente tied for third place for the boys. The year soon came to an end, and though it might have been hard at first to get accustomed to the rules and regulations of the high school, we can honestly say that we enjoyed this new life that we were now leaving. In the Fall of I960, we returned to the high school as Sophomores. We were all united in one homeroom with Mrs. Upham as our class advisor Class officers were: Stephen Perkins, President; Thomas Taylor, Vice-President; Joan Vaidulas, Secretary; Mary Ann Mertzic, Treasurer; Lewis Valente, Student Council Representative. One of our duties as a Sophomore class was to put on the Sophomore Social. Marcia Potter was General Chairman, while Joan Vaidulas, Carolyn Tetreault, and Leslie Teagno were assistants. We were proud to say that this Social was a great success. The annual Magazine Drive soon came. To the dismay of the Juniors our class came in second again this year.
