Exchanging teachers and pupils is only a small part of a large scale program, but it is enough to make us realize the value and the importance of international friendship. We were fortunate, this year m being able to send Mrs Phillips, our home economics teacher, to Manchester, England, through the teacher exchange program, and we benefited in obtaining Miss Herrod from England MISS HERROD MRS PHILLIPS A ctoscup of Mrs Phillips, and a view of her at work; Droylesden Secondary Modem School, Lancashire, England Home Economic Class at Droylesden afternoon tea at Droylesden VL CHURCHES What would a community be without its religious life- Our churches, the most important influence in our life, work with us m school and civic activities The Baptists, the Episcopalians, the % Methodists, and the Presbyterians have houses of worship in Fairfield.

The P T A and the Homemakers Club present awards to the most industrious band student and the outstanding senior home economics student, respectively To win one of these awards is well worth the effort expanded ARCHIE DUNCAN REBECCA McCLESKEY TONI Mi NARON THE STUDENT COUNCIL OFFICERS ARCHIE DUNCAN ... Pres.dent REBECCA McCLESKEY Vice-President TONI McNARON Secretary-Treasurer The Student Council, made up of representatives from each homeroom, is the governing body of the school. The purpose of the Student Council is to solve school problems and promote better citizenship among students. Each year the Student Council sponsors Homecoming, Friendship Week, and F-Day. The Student Council is also in charge of all assembly programs. The president of the council presides over the entire student body. Last year the Student Council started a huge drive to obtain an electric scoreboard for the football field They took this tremendous effort in stride and presented the school with the board This year the Student Council set a precedent in that they were the first club to donate, as a whole, to the March of Dimes, hoping that this would serve as an impetus in the coming years. The Student Council members along with their capable sponsors, Miss McLeod, Mr Hewlett, and Mrs. Fiquett, have given freely of their time in serving the school.
