Oi History of the Senior Class In order to give a complete history of the Senior Class of 1927. let ' s turn back the pages of time to the early days of the John S. Armstrong School, so that we may see the beginning of this most illustrious class, which is now about to fade out of the picture of this institution in order to take larger parts in the halls of learning in the higher institutions of education. In the year 1914 when the John S. Armstrong school was founded, three of the members of our class entered kindergarten. These three students have gone from kindergarten through high school together. This class differs from most senior classes in that it resembles one large family. From the first grade on our class has remained together, of course having new ones added to our roll-call, and some going astray, only to return again. Since we have the honor of instituting mid-term graduation at the Highland Park High School, perhaps we had better give an explanation of that fact. In the year 1918 the Board of Education saw fit to divide the classes, thus making the high and the low grades that we have today. Our class was the first to hold graduating exercises in the new High School building. This was in 1923 when we graduated from the seventh grade. We also had the privilege of having the first banquet there. In February. 1926. we found ourselves ready to uphold the title of dignified seniors. We hope that wc will make such marks that will reflect glory on the Highland Park High School. Merle Fagan.
