 Once Upon A Time Once upon a time in the year 1922, Harrodsburg High School was constructed in a small rural community. Thus begins the legend of Harrodsburg High. Is the years progressed, the present main building was expanded to accommodate kindergarten through twelfth grades. The students attending the school discovered a sense of unity. Traditions and cultures followed. In a school as old and as small as Harrodsburg High, certain traditions were established through the years. Among the members now of our teaching staff is a person who is, in her own way, a legend. She has been active in drama and speech, an enthusiastic English teacher, and a dedicated sponsor to both the senior and freshmen classes. In 1981, due to cutbacks, she was switched from a senior sponsor to a freshman sponsor. This year's Harrodian is dedicated to Mrs. Anne Clark. 1 4 - Opening

School days, school days, Oh, those golden rule days. Reading, and writing, arithmetic. Taught to the tune of a hickory stick.. . . Stop! Now, exactly what is the purpose of school? It is to be the site of learning. Students spend their time at this spot” gaining knowledge, or at least trying to earn enough to obtain a passing grade on the report card. Conventional teaching still predominates at our spot, with emphasis on textbooks, lectures, and exams. However, films, tapes, and guest speaker certainly aid in variety. Students in such classes as art and home economics learn by doing. However, some students prove that as much happens in the back of the class as at the front. Knowledge and learning can be history dates, geometric formulas, chemistry equations, English authors, library skills, general experience, or yesterday's gossip. In fourth period home economics, junior Michael Lyons and sophomore Tammy Walls prepare a sausage and egg breakfast. School Days Advanced math is a complicated class.
