These crowded conditions caused us to have staggered programs; that is, some of us came to school at 8: 15 and others came later. For some, classes ended at noon; for others, at 3:40. However, this new program offered a challenge to juniors and seniors. Now we were really on our own; we had to make our own study schedules and try to fit them into our activities or jobs or our family and church life. For the first time we knew the real meaning of homework. Learning under these conditions was new to us, but encouraged and inspired by good teachers, we tried to keep up our high standards of scholarship. The Public Librarv was always full of kids with a free hour. There ' s hardly enough room to move in the crowded EHS halls. -

Dr t:li :.:■ Elk ' ' ' • ' ■ ' We are very proud of the fact that Elkhart ' s good schools attract many visitors in the course of each school year. They come (like Dr. Conant) to study our comprehensive school, or just to visit us. Sometimes our visitors stay to work with us; that ' s how we got our lovely Miss Crombie and our enthusiastic Dr. Schilling. He came to visit and returned to head our curriculum study. New courses, as well as new faces, were a part of the year of ' 59, such as Mr. Harvey ' s special math classes. Other new classes in science and English were also offered. A new course this vear — Mr. Wenger ' s Debate clas Mr. Harvey instructs his Advanced Algebra class, held at night HHHNJNHHHNlNNaBNJ
