SENIOR MEMORIES Time moves past at such a slow, continuous rate that none of us realize its passing until our high school years are almost at an end. We, the Class of 1964, are swiftly approaching our graduation and the completion of five happy years here at Charles City High School. As we prepare to leave our friends and instructors our hearts fill with sadness. Yet, we cannot be too oppressed because of the happy memories we shall carry with us. After receiving seventh grade diplomas we enthusiastically entered the eighth grade. We felt extremely important since we were the first eighth grade to be an official part of high school. Our class consisted of fourteen members who were eager to join into school life. Under the direction of Mr. J. D. Smith, our teachers showed us that there was a great deal of work involved in each class. The freshman year was filled with changes. To the administrative staff came a new and well-loved principal, Mr. Edward W. Eanes. There were also changes within our class; we lost two students but acquired Joyce Waltrip and Jimmy Johnson. With the sophomores we visited Mariners Museum and feasted at a picnic lunch at Buckroe. The sophomore year found us active in sports and activities. We discovered that we would soon be needing money, so we began working on fund raising projects. Each of us felt proud and happy as we selected our class rings. In our junior year we realized the responsibility of high school students as we moved in¬ to Mrs. Richardson’s homeroom. We truly enjoyed our trip to Washington, D. C. which was actually an educational experience that we shall never forget. Now we find ourselves in the Senior Class. This year is filled with hard work and high hopes. This is what has happened to us in the past. What will our futures bring? 12
