Senior Class History The halls rumbled that memorable day in September 53 when we as green freshmen entered senior high. Certain that we would continue to be big wheels, our knees literally knocked at that famed cliche, “The freshmen are certainly short this year. With time, however, we entered into the swing of things. We II never forget that wonderful G.O. dance. Autumn Fantasy, or the thrill we felt during inductions into the Junior National Honor Society. Of course, our freshman year wouldn t have been complete without Ivanhoe or David Copperfield. ’ Finally after June exams, we proudly referred to ourselves as The Sophomore Class.’ As especially privileged sophomores, we then might attend senior high assemblies. Also, during this year we were introduced to that master ol drama. William Shakespeare, and his tragedy of intrigue. “Julius Caesar.’ Squeamishly we displayed our surgical talents in the dissection of our pet worms and frogs. Once again we enthusiastically cheered our teams on to victory and fearfully underlook our first Regents exams. Our junior year consisted of a pot pourri of pep assemblies with the new boy cheerleaders, gay parties, “Les Miserables. and foreign students. We delighted to the enchanting Junior Prom, Le Paradis Alpine, and assiduously studied for our English and world history Regents. Ushering and singing at commencement exercises in June made us more anxious than ever to begin our senior year. Early in our senior year we furiously planned for our future at college or in business. Our Senior Play, “Out of the Frying Pan.” was a sizzling success as was our Variety Show; and our victorious Freeport Red Devils became Triple-A Champions for Nassau County. I oward the end of the year we anxiously waited for FlasHingS to reveal the outcome of our “pop poll and the senior class will. June and commencement were not far off. Climaxed by a thrilling senior year, our profitable and enjoyable attendance at F.H.S. will provide us with many an hour of pleasurable retrospect. Our friendships and experiences will be a significant influence on our lives. First Row. .. to R.: S. Pcrlslcin. (i.O. Representative; J. Jaworowski. Treasurer. Second Row: I.
