Designed to familiarize new students with the building and system of Hampton High School, this year opened with a unique orien- tation program held prior to the influx of returning Juniors and Seniors. In an opening assembly in the gym, welcoming speeches were made by the principals before schedules were given out. After brief class periods in which the students became acquainted with their teachers, an assembly program was presented by the SCA. This year’s officers were presented in addition to remarks made by Hampton High’s first foreign exchange student, Mar- gareta Koestner. The cheerleaders introduced themselves with a few of the familiar Crabber cheers. The students were given maps of the build- ing along with complimentary editions of the Krabba Highlight. Margareta Koestner, American Field Service for- eign exchange student, spoke to the Sophomores and other new students at the orientation assembly. Margareta comes to Hampton from her native land of Austria. Orientation Miss Howard introduces herself to one of her new students, David Phillips, while checking his schedule. The SCA served as guides for Orientation Day. Here, Lynda Whiteside gives directions to Julia Dunn. 8
