Since our community is the theme of the 1951 Reflector, it is appropriate that something be said about our School Community. The first Monday in July, 1948, saw the Conewago Joint School System born, with Abbottstown and East Berlin Boroughs, Conewago Independent District, and Paradise and Reading Townships entering into a joint contract. It is hoped that in the very near future Washington Township, another adjacent district, most of whose high school students have been attending the local school for the past fifteen years, will unite with us. Our probationary period as a Junior-Senior High School—or six-six plan —was served the year preceding the jointure. Then the shop facilities wore expanded, until today our industrial Arts—Vocational Agriculture shop is one of the best equipped among the high schools of our size. In the elementary division, rural schools have been graded; the nurse, art, and music teachers make regular weekly visits to each school, and other desirable improvements have resulted. As to the future of this School Community, only the residents—the mothers and fathers, and the alumni—can determine this. It is hoped that the near future will find the entire school population housed in modern, well- equipped school buildings, manned by the best trained teachers available. Jo JhsL QlaAh. o£. 1951 CONGRATULATIONS upon your graduation! Although you have reached your goal, and made your dreams come true, new spheres of endeavor lie ahead.
