l4l Principal's Message Progress has been made at Klamath Union High School in a number of areas. We have an extremely fine school, in fact one which is outstanding in many areas, by which schools are evaluated. Our future should also be bright for we have the type of student body, faculty and community which should continue to turn out graduates who will excel. Traditionally our college preparatory prograrn has turned out students who are well prepared to handle college work regardless of where they may choose to do their post high school work. The extra- curricular program has also produced students and student organizations which have excelled. Uur instrumental and vocal music groups have brought credit to our high school, by their public perform- ances locally and at major functions on the west coast. Their performance at the East-West Shrine game and at the Northwest Music Educators Con- ference are times when they received national recognition for excellence. The athletic teams have also demonstrated excellence in state-wide com- petition, accomplishing this with an attitude of good sportsmanship and ethical conduct. The enrollment at Klamath Union High School has continued to increase at a rather steady pace over the last few years. This school year the enroll- ment jumped approximately two hundred students when the first of the ninth grade classes numbering in excess of six lnmdred students arrived at our doors. linless the community sees fit to expand our facilities, a continued program of excellence will be hampered by lack of facilities. The Board of lfducation is however, working on plans to expand the facilities and we should have added facilities in the near future. Our progress in the area of student attitude and feeling of pride in our school. l believe, is most important. Students are proud of their high school and as a group are striving to perform in such a manner that they will bring credit to their school. Students are using their talents to enhance the reputation of the school and are also developing in the community a feeling of pride in our students and school. The addition of personnel. added equipment and improvements in the curriculum for all students are other areas where progress can be noted. We will continue to make progress, l am sure, and although we now have a fine school and a good program. the quality of student body and faculty is such that we will continue to improve and will have one of the outstanding schools in the state of Uregon.
