Willis President’s Message How green” we felt during that first long week, at the beginning of our high school days. We encountered so many new faces and surroundings that we telt a wee bit frightened. Our fears soon vanished; it wasn’t long be fore we had adapted ourselves to high school life surprisingly well. We are now prepared for four more years ot work, study, and pleasure. Our class meetings have occurred every two weeks and we feel that the year has promoted interest, friendship, and a definite school spirit. We have done nothing spectacular, but we hope next year to enter into all activities and do our best. Next year w’e will have the honor of being the first freshman class in the new high school building. With this in view' we are looking forward to a very successful 1936-37.
