1965-66 was a significant year for the Day School. It signaled the growth of both the phys- ical Dlant and the student body. The marked increase in enrollment to 550 caused the addi- tion of two new faculty members. Mr. Coates ioined the French department but also taught Spanish, and Mr. ThesEng taught Latin and Eng- lish as well as coaching the Middle School basketball team, but failed to get a Uinform for varsity gamest Having lost its two stalwart den mothers, the school hired two new secretaries. Miss Kramer and Mrs. Gamble who immediately renovated the school supply store in order to compete with Shillito's with after-Thanksgiving sales and such. After the graduation of Flavio da Costa in 3962, Country Day had no foreign students Until the arrival of TiTo Stenberg from Finland and Steven Ortenblad from Sweden. Although C. D. 'differed immensely from their former schools, both agreed that they profited from their year in America. Physically, the school changed by the addi- tion of two new wings. The front wing contains offices for Mr. Davison, Mr. Deane, Mr. Yeiser, and Mr. Colgan, as well as conference rooms. On the other side of the building next to the audi- torium is the addition that houses two class- rooms and a larger Two-story library. The old library has been converted in a physics labo- ratory now known affectionately as Room 14. One of the many improved assemblies.
