CLASS HISTORY We, the Senior Class of Conestoga Valley High School, the first class to have spent four full years at Conestoga Valley, was formed from the scintillating pupils of West Earl, Upper Leacock, and East Lampeter Schools. On that fateful day of classes, in September 1958, our motley crew was delightfully welcomed in the conservative beauty of a new home. A modern edifice -- of tasteful decor, lending a crisp air of conviviality in which to learn - replaced our former less modem buildings. In effect, mediocrity was exchanged for the sublime, and we had to adjust to our environment. Our first year was spent doing this. Personal accomplishments of some of our members spotted our tenth year. Some eamed awards for their impressions on canvas. We had a Hex Machine win a prize in the Science Fair. Our boys entered sports. People began to look up to Conestoga Valley, we were earning respect. Eleventh grade saw a mushrooming of interest. In a concerted effort, the class staged Thorn- ton Wilder,s Our Town and set a fine example of dramatics at Conestoga Valley. Thunderous ap- plause commended the cast, a heart-pervading warmth filled the audience. In reference to Youth Day in Government, anyone will avouch that we virtually ran the school elections fremember the Vikings?j One of our members took another science project to Kansas City. By this time sports were improving, and with them school spirit. The gym show received well-earned recognition. Our class won first prize in the Christmas decorations for the second consecutive year. We all wore our class rings to the prom or to the banquet. Oh, gala twelfth grade! The Reeser jalopy, Mosey's ice cream, and victorious basketball games! It was the year to have fun, the year to run youth out of one's system and strive to gain that elusive air of adulthood. We had fun, yes, but we burned the midnight oil, too. A greater percentage of us was ac- cepted at institutions of higher learning than of any class before us. We began to respect our teach- ers as friends instead of domineering authorities. Those in chorus helped to stage a magnificent Christmas Program. Our cheerleaders were the best in the League, and they cheered fine teams. Again we had an admirable showing at District Band and District Chorus. And, oh, those Sen- ior trips! What can we say! We have loved our years at Conestoga Valley, and though we as indi- viduals are eager abo11t the future, we cannot forget you, Conestoga Valley, for you have won our hearts. EIGHT
