BIRTH or A SENIOR On October 1, 1954, the Fort Peck School opened its doors to the students of Fort Peck and the surrounding townsg the enrollment was 215 and a faculty of nine members. The enrollment steadily increased and reached the peak on January 18, 1935 with a total of 337. The main school build- ing, located in the townsite, was not large .enough to accomodate all the pupilsg therefore, three barracks in the 52 block were used as class rooms for grades 4-8 inclusive. The eighth grade is of prime interest not only because it was the highest grade when school opened, out because several of that class are still in the midst and are finish- ing their high school course here. The eighth grade teachers, Marguirite Hannen, the class advisor, and Grace Donlan, have positions in other schools. Miss Hannan left two years after the school was established here and Miss Donlan stayed for three years. The eighth grade graduation took place in the Recreation Hall on June 14, 1935, and since that time twenty-four out of the thirty-two students have separated and moved to dif- ferent parts of U. S. Those who are still attending school in Fort Peck, and are among those who graduate, this year, are: Stanford Hall, Helen Herbold, Dona Hively, James Lessley, Blanche Sauber, Velma Weeres, and Mary Wright. Boyd Neustsl attended school here during the eighth grade and after his freshman year left school, to return this year as a sophomore. Dorothy Chorpening, who also started here in the eighth grade, left before the end of the term and went to Washington. She returned the next year and entered as a freshman.
