1 u Q, - mi , HIGH SCHOOL PRINCIPAL, Mr. George E. McKinney . . Principal Reviews The Year QM, A Year Of Constrasts The school year of l95-l-55 in as far as Brookville High School is concerned was a year of contrasts. The year witnessed: 1. The greatest total enrollment in the history of the school. A total of 595, including 142 in the junior high school and 459 in the senior high school. Z. The swing in the election of subjects, during the year, has been somewhat away from the vocational, back to the academic. The enrollments in algebra, geometry, physics, and advanced algebra and geometry were greater than at any time since l945. 3. The year also saw a great change in the extra curricular program, in that organizations and classes have been meeting during a lengthened noon hour, instead of during an activity period as has been done in the past. 4. The lengthened noon hour created its problems in the matter of student recreation versus the negative acts of students. 5 .. The athletic program saw the emergence of football as a major drawing power in the matter of attendance. Also the l95-f-55 season saw Brookville field its best team, in as far as season records were concerned. 6. School spirit has continued on the upswing with students in general giving their loyalty to their school. instead of to the many different localities from which they have come. 1. For the most part, both teacher and student morale was on a high plane, with both groups striving to reach the objectives of our schools educational plans. pw VV' HIGH SCHOOL SECRETARY, Miss Marilyn Steinard Page Seven
