G.E.T. TCDGETHER Gale -Ettrick and Trempealeau, separate units through june of '71, united for the 1971-72 school year. The year began a period of apprehension and expectation for many of LIS. We knew that each school had its own greatness and potential, each school was proud of its heritage, tradition and accomplishments. The new high school should be able to draw on the past and move forward to even greater feats than each school could have by itself. This was our expectation. Our apprehension concerning the '71-72 school year was dissipated within a few weeks. Students found a common cause to rally around. The football team, composed of players from both schools, started the season successfully and continued winning. The Lmity demonstated in supporting the football team extended to other facets of school life. Election of organizational officers, student council members, and king and queens showed complete disregard for locality origin. As the school year progressed, the students demonstrated their unity to an increasing degree, and soon the school was commonly being called Gale -Ettrick-Trempealeau. QThe name was accepted having been decided on by a majority of the students. 5 It seemed to illustrate and secure the great tradition and history of both great schools. During the school year, new cotuses and organizations appeared. A pep club was organized to support our team. An industrial arts club, wrestling, cheerleaders and new courses such as psychology, sociology, and advanced courses now being offered were initiated in our school life. Faculty members in the various departments also started working on an evaluation of present curricultun offerings and laid the ground work for new offerings in the comming year. They are hoping that the new design of course offerings will fit the needs and desires of our students. The success of the 1971-72 school year is a tribute to the understanding and tolerance exhibited by students, teachers and others concerned with our school and has proven that two schools, Gale -Ettrick and Trempealeau, can bring their greatness and proud traditions together - that they can draw from, and use their greatness and tradition to formulate their goals for greatness as Gale -Ettrick- Trempealeau High School, I say, Thank you for making our year a success, and I hope that your experiences here have helped to build a platform for your future.
