the Delightful and Eventful Year of 1958-1959 in CULPEPER COUNTY HIGH SCHOOL Here are the many activities of the CCHS school year to which students looked forward with greater anticipation than ever before. These events highlighted each month of the school term. During the month of September, students attended the first football game of the season. Because the team won four straight games, school spirit was aroused and inspired through- out the school year. In October a senior girl became Homecoming Queen and the third month saw many school dances. Students saw their first basketball game of the season during the fourth month. Many attended the annual Christmas dance. Although the big event of the month was the exam schedules, after Christmas there were more dances and many new events. February saw many banquets. Students individually, or as groups, entered contests as well as spring sports at CCHS or away and won numerous prizes and honors. The event of the year for the juniors and seniors, however, was the Junior-Senior Prom held in May. June brought graduation, the long looked for and memorable event for seniors. COMING AND GOING — Students arrive at school, opposite page, to prepare themselves to become better citizens of tomorrow. Each student follows a six-period schedule. Roll call at 8:54 precedes class periods. At 3:09 roll call in homeroom ends a typical sch ool day. Students, right picture, leave school after a hard day’s work to board the buses to take them home.
