The school year at East was filled with many and varied activities for the students. During the 1964 Junior-Senior Prom, couples have their pictures made in order to remember the occasion.

The 1964-65 school year brought with it many special occasions and afforded many varied activities for its students. Some activities, such as Orientation and Home- coming, were a part of every student’s life. In others, such as Charlotte Exchange and National Merit, only a few students participated. But each activity brought with it a feeling of specialness for the students involved. In the days of King Arthur, a knight’s shield was emblazoned when he had accomplished a particularly brave or noteworthy deed, and he was thus recognized for his outstanding achievement. In the following pages, we emblazon the shields of those students who have distinguished themselves through outstanding leadership, scholarship, citizenship, or service. Remembered also are those special occasions which have highlighted our year. Turid Sverre, one of East’s exchange students, enjoys herself at the Howdy Dance. Marshals officiate as students enter the gym for the Choir’s Christmas program. Page Nineteen
