Glaaa Jluiofuf In 1940, Irrigon Grade School was blessed with the presence of LaVonne McCoy and Don Acock. In the middle of the year Helen Steagall entered the small class and they struggled through under the supervision of Miss Bedingfield. In the following year we had the pleasure of a new student, Lenora Burnette joining. Our teacher was Mrs. Newllurg. ln the third grade we all had a time leaming our multiplication under our teacher, Mrs. Matthews. The foul-th grade cgnginued with the same ornery students under the instruction of Miss Eddy. In the fifth grade the class had the loss of a classmate, LaVonne McCoy. We were all in a great chorus and had a good time with our teacher, Miss Scott. The following year we had a new boy join us. This was Don Leighton. He fit in well with the class and our teacher. Mrs. Smith. In the seventh, another boy, Ronald Berger joined us. This year we started our class with Mrs. Smith for our teacher. She left because of illness. We then had Mrs. Sunstun. when she left we had Mrs. Morgan and she substituted until we gotaperrnanent teacher, who was Mrs. Percy. Our last grade in grade school was just as upset. We lost one of our boys, Don Leighton who moved away. We started the year with Mr. Allen as our teacher. We then got Rev. Turner for our teacher, Mrs. Adams followed Rev. Turner and was our permanent teacher and passed us into High School. TheFreshman Class foundus mean as ever on initiation day. The second six weeks brought back an old classmate, Don Leighton. The Sophomore also brought back an old classmate, LaVonne McCoy. In the Junior year. we got 2 new students, Meredith Hoover and Don Eppenbach. The same year we also lost a classmate, LaVonne. The Senior year found us all happy because we made it this far. The first few weeks of school we didn 't have Meredith Hoover: she returned after a leave of absense. This year we also regained LaVonne, who came back to graduate with her old classmates. We also gained a new girl, Margie Avent. Through the years we all have taken an active part in activities, and the class as a whole has gotten along well, and have very pleasant and happy memories of all our friends and school days, we are leaving behind.
