tuss Freshman H IGH SCHOOL at last! We were called “rats” and saw many trying times, but all of us had to go through that stage to reach our goal— graduation. Our teachers, Miss Brittle, Miss Gilliam, Miss Sinclair, and Miss Wenger, helped us to get adjusted to our new way of school life, and we began to take an interest in the school activities. After examinations we found ourselves Sophomores. Sophomore We entered our Sophomore year with the satisfaction that we could look upon the incoming Freshman as we were at one time looked upon. We took a more active interest in school activities and many joined the various clubs. Our teachers Mr. Thompson, Mrs. Thompson, Miss Robertson, and Miss Chambliss helped us to work hard and pass our examinations. We ha d at last reached the half-way mark of our goal and became Juniors. Junior This year we felt really important. We were Juniors and took part in the Junior-Senior Banquet. We took a more active interest in school sports and activities. Our football team won high recognition by whipping Petersburg 13-7. Our teachers were Mr. Beckwith, Miss Brittle, and Miss Haley. We passed our examinations and met the requirements to become Seniors. Senior Seniors at last! After three long years of hard work, we were at last called “Dignified Seniors” and looked upon as leaders of the school. There was the excitement about the rings, pictures, cards, announcements, and Ka¬ leidoscopes. We were very proud to have two of our graduating seniors make the Central League basketball team. We had charge of the school news in the Hopewell News and had the annual minstrel. With our teachers Mr. Sutherland, Mr. Smith, Mr. Glass, Miss Bell, and Mr. Woehr, we worked hard to make our last year a success. We worked hard to make our Kaleidoscope a success and looked forward with much anticipa¬ tion to our Banquet, Class Day, and Graduation. The Senior Class wishes to express their deep appreciation to Mr. Mallonee and the faculty for their untiring efforts in helping us reach our goal—gradua¬ tion. It is with many fond memories and deep regrets that we say “good-bye to Hopewell High School.” CLASS HISTORIAN-JEWEL CONNELLY. page thirty Kaleidoscope
