SIXTH GRADE At last, in 1941, we arrived in the sixth grade with Miss Annie McFayden for our teacher. We were anxious to start the year because Miss McFayden had the reputation of not giving any homework. Mr. V. R. White left us during the summer, and Mr. A. S. Hunt took his place as principal. Mr. J. E. Switzer also joined our faculty as agriculture teacher. Our class membership jumped to thirty-four — raising our hopes for a larger class in High School. CLASS OF 1954— Mrs. Walter J. Kanoy, Teacher The three R ' s have come in for their share of time given to study this year. We feel that our accomplishment will give us a background for the work we are to do in the higher grades. In one sense of the word, we have been abroad all year. European and Asiatic geography have been emphasized to give a graphical background for our history instruction. The study of our own state has been carried on through a unit of work. We ' ve made attractive spelling workbooks in which we ' ve kept a record of our work. We ' ve tried to put into practice many things we have learned from our text Building Good Health. The health charts we have kept have made us more careful of the food we eat, the care of our teeth, the care of our bodies and our clothes. We are very proud of the lavatory, large plat e glass mirror, soap and towel dispen- saries, and waste basket we got this school year. Too, we are practicing what we hear preached, keeping clean. Our science table has been of interest to all.
