Sem. 1, 2. 66444 55 .female Zia Wag The senior class of '55 was seen and heard throughout the year and were the gear-wheels in many school activities. Seniors first enioyed a new type of class to them . . . Senior Problems, in which they studied psychology and social living, writing research papers on both. ln February, the seniors planned their Career Day and gathered 2l speakers from l3 different occupations. Speakers from Bakersfield, Taft, Maricopa, and Cuyama, participated. Teachers, students and the administration were all well pleased with this interesting program. The class of '55 also co-sponsored the Junior-Senior Prom in early March and it, too, was a big success, featuring Al Nepa's Band. The dance's theme was Stairway to the Stars and was elabor- ately decorated with huge stars and an equally beautiful stairway. ln the last few days of March, the seniors went all out to construct their Carnival and solicit prizes from mer- chants. Everyone was very happy and ex- cited--save the seniors, who were so very tired! The money received from their Carni- val went into a fund for the seniors' Ditch Day which they took in mid-May. And now comes the beginning of that glorious part of life . . . graduation! Baccalaureate services were held on June 5 and the graduates heard an inspiring sermon. Three days later that long-anticipated day arrived and school was a busy flurry of seniors, impatiently practicing for Commencement. At nine o'clock on June 8, the class of '55 was formally graduat- ed. Congratulations were held in front of the school.
