he Christmas Spirit seems to -I get into everyones heart and it was obvious at Gateway High School. Throughout Gateway halls there were gift exchanges by the dozens. A numerous amount of GHS students Sent Christmas cards to their friends and favorite teachers to boost the joyful season. Gateway's Junior class sponsored a Christmas dance at Gateway. Due to a new policy by Dr. Sharkey and Mr. Burton, the dance was a couples only dance and they provided guest passes if the student was accompanied by a non-Gateway student. The juniors provided free refreshments and great music for the forty four couples that attended the dance. A popular attrac- tion at the dance was hanging mistletoe which every couple seemed to visit frequently. Another seasonal attraction at GHS was the selling and distributing of candy-cane grams. Any person could buy a candy cane for fifty cents and it would be delivered to your special person. Some classrooms had their own parties or celebrations. ln the Home-Ec department they prepared many Christmas items to eat. Some Foreign' Language classes had their own Foreign Christmas celebrations and also Gateway's choir went carolling around the halls and through the departments. Christmas 39
