Introduction To Houlton High School As you journey up School street, two large red brick buildings command the eye. The few maple trees growing in single file on the narrow strip of lawn are guarded by a sturdy chain. A small graveled campus surrounds the buildings, where the students and teachers leave their cars. Upon entering the front door, we see a large trophy cabinet. This cabinet contains the medals and trophies won by the school. Two wide doors open from the corridor, re- vealing a large auditorium where the assem- blies and many other activities are held. The seating capacity of this room is ap- proximately 500. Wandering down the stairs, we find a small gymnasium. Athletic contests are held here and also the numerous school dances. The atmosphere of the gym is brightened by the addition of an electric scoreboard. This scoreboard was bought with the money which the students earned by selling Curtis publications. Last year, the junior high school was add- ed to the senior high school, making a six- year school. The faculty is composed of about twenty-eight teachers, including the principal. The various activities of the school are in the form of clubs, athletic contests, and musical and dramatic organizations. There is a boys' H-Club and a girls' H- Club. In order to belong to these clubs, the student must have participated in Z1- sport for a given period of time. The English Club is exclusive to juniors and seniors. To be a member of this club, the student must have the rank of a large B or higher in English. The Honor Society is composed of mem- bers who have received an average rank of 90 for two consecutive semesters. Musical organizations of the school con- sist of the band and orchestra, girls' glee club, and a boys' quartet. A new club, the Hi-Y, has recently been formed within 'the school. This club is com- posed of the most outstanding boys in the school. The Home Economics Club is composed of girls in the home economics classes.
