And a new story begins But 1961 is a special year too. It sees the hectic scenes of “settling in” a new school mo- ments before the opening hour. It sees eager students exploring the shining enlarged facili- ties—two labs, a library doubled in capacity, a gym with roll-away bleachers. It sees alert stu- dents investigating new courses. It sees world growth and change as these United States be- come fifty and a man in space is no longer fan- tasy. Our year finds us growing and changing too, with new traditions and new responsibili- ties. This is our special year and we invite you to Look Whats Happening To Us.” Gymnasium Entrance Administration Building AND NOW IT'S HAPPENING AGAIN — There is a new look to our old love. In the fall of 1960, modem Senior High School facilities were opened on a spacious forty-two acre campus. Ele- mentary and Junior High Schools occupy tire buildings of the original school site. The curriculum has been broadened to include both distributive education and diversified occupations. The combined faculties total sixty-five. The student body has grown from two hundred in 1920 to two thousand in 1960. And still we grow.

IT HAPPENED IN 1914—That year saw the first brick building to house the increasing number of boarding students at Cary Academy. Since 1870, the Academy had grown until, by 1913, space was at a premium. As the student body grew, the curriculum expanded. In 1933, consolidation and bus transportation ended boarding school days and brought more students that again crowded the five buildings then on campus. hr .-i'.-.-.— ii. IT HAPPENED IN 1938— Down with the old, with the new, enlarged' building. Still we . The years brought additions a new primary building, gym- and cafeteria. The cam- now contained eight buildings a lighted football field for games. The faculty increased nineteen to fifty-two and the body doubled in size. As nmunity grew, so did our needs. An old story continues- The year 1961 will be, in many ways, like all years. We will laugh and cry, work and play, and, above all, grow. In our serious moments, we will search for knowledge in the library, the lab, and the words of our teachers. Eagerly we will watch exciting touch-down runs — — and heartbreaking fumbles. PTA’s will hold fund- raising barbeques. Gay teenagers will dance at sock hops and formals. Exams will come and go, with joy for some, sorrow for others, but a sigh of relief for all. Then solemn graduates will face that ultimate moment when they will receive their final badge of achievement.
