East Rutherford High School - Tea Leaf Yearbook (East Rutherford, NJ)

Page 21 text:

The curriculum of study for the Sophomores was rather flexible and, therefore, well-liked. The Sophomore year offers many opportunities for continuation in specialized fields which have caught the fancy of the Freshmen. The com- mercial student gains much practical knowledge by participating in typing and bookkeeping courses. Latin may be continued from the Freshman year or started anew, while other languages offered are Spanish and German. For the first time in our school, Italian is being taught. The scientifically minded student may continue in the scientific field by electing biology, while those wishing to explore the mystery of mathematics usually pursue plane geometry. Again the artistically or musically inclined have within their power the privilege of continuing art and music. The versatility and flexibility of the Sophomore course of study makes it a valuable one. Second year high is usually the time for all the gals to have secret crushes on the so-called football heroes. It might be added that the class behaved as usual in this respect. Undeniably, Sophomore lads did not lack their share of crushes on Senior prima donnas either. As the end of the school year drew to a close, our second year men became quite entranced when considering the fact that next year they would be one big step nearer their goal of graduation. Although the Sophomores may have been told that they look rather hopeless by certain sources, we, the Seniors, really believe that they possess certain possibilities which show signs of rapid development throughout remaining high school years. :NIJ l'l.A'I'OUN Ii 'lc R .f' JV ,wwf ' 1 ' Q, ' . 34' A , f Y '- fy 04 f ,Qf'.

It's just superior- ity. After all, these fellows have been here one whole year. So what, if Juniors and Seniors have been here still longer? The important thing to a Sophomore is that he has existed in high school one year more than his Freshman pal. The worst is behind him and now the fun fand workj commences. To a certain extent, a whole new life unfolds for a person in his second year at our school. He has already made his first impression on the minds of his classmates and teachers. Now his job is to do what is expected of him, and more, as there is always room for improvement, and changes for the better. What better opportunity is offered for this purpose than the Sophomore year? As a rule, high school social life opens its arms to the Sophomores. Many clubs that discriminated against Freshmen are eager and waiting to admit anxious Sophomores. Besides being able to participate in the social activities of others, a successful social debut of their very own was made at the Soph Hop, which took place in February.

These never-to-be-forgotten days store up many memories for the future, as the social standing of the Juniors is all it should be. They are entitled to all the privileges of upper-classmen, including the benefit of sharing assemblies with the Seniors. When returning to school after the summer vacation, it is a source of amaze- ment to all to see how the little, timid Sophomore has turned into the big, fearless Junior, who is unafraid of everything and anything, including Seniors. While Freshmen and Sophomores look up to, admire, and respect Seniors, the consensus of opinion among most Juniors is that the Senior class ain't so hot. We, the Seniors, beg to differ with them. Any one who has been a Junior knows that a favorite pastime of his is gold- bricking. The army corporal, who is most famous for his goldbrieking abilities, runs a neat parallel to a typical Junior. However, the one thing that did seem to rouse the juniors out of their complacent slumber was the hum of social activities that they were in the very midst of, The Junior Prom and Junior Play, two of the most prominent social affairs of the school season, revolve around the junior class. Although both of these affairs mean a lot of work, it is the kind of work that is rewarded by the satisfaction derived from the knowledge that you have done your job, and done it well.
