As time turns backward, as time gives us a second look, 1955-1956 at Gaithersburg High School becomes in retrospect no uneventful year. September brought more faces, new faces at the high school. Expanded facilities came into use. New officers filled posts. Clubs bowed for the first time, activities opened for the student body. The curriculum of studies provided greater variety than we had previously known. The Sail On turns the months of the calendar back for you. High- lighting each month, the staff presents the portraits of each class in one of the six sections of the annual. TX -x jfxl riff' li X
