We 2)o 3n ' 61- ' 62? Many years from now we may look back and think, “1961-62 — That was the school year when . . Tedious hours were spent studying for the grueling exams which we were required to pass. A new language lab was installed and better science facilities were available to us. We acquired new friendships and strengthened old ones. The “foot-stomp” and the “roach” were among the dance crazes and crazy sayings were popular with all of us. Through clubs and organizations we learned to work with other people and to accept responsibilities. The new student orientation program was under way and the honor roll increased every semester. Many new students, about 601, entered their first year of high school, while other students became sophomores and juniors. For the 385 seniors it was the year they heard those meaningful words echoing through Memorial Auditorium. k ‘The class of 1962 is now graduated.” With the addition of new teams we enlarged our sports program. Winning or losing we stuck by all of our teams. Our cheering block grew r to perfection. All in all it was a full year, one which we will look back upon with ever increasing fondness.
