Central High School - Breaker Yearbook (Elizabeth City, NC)

CLASS HISTORY In the year of 1943 a group of happy boys and girls entered the first grade. During the following eight years many interesting things happened to us. In the eighth grade we took a trip to Raleigh to the many historic buildings as well as the Capitol. We also had an increase in our class. In this year, the students from Newland came to Central. In 1951 we entered high school and lived up to the name of noisy freshmen. In our Sophomore year we settled down and began to get full benefit from high school --some of it, anyway. In our Junior year we were a busy group of boys and girls preparing for our Junior play and Junior-Senior Banquet. The last week of school we had Senior privileges. During our Senior year we looked forward to many interesting things. We are happy now but before school is out we will be sad, for we must leave Central and all our friends and face this big wide world.
