THIS is a year we must relate - The joys and sorrows of '58. This school year of '58 started with the election of new officers and high hopes for the success of the year in spite of the decreased enrollment due to the loss of Cuyama students. The sudden death of Superintendent Ray Messinger was a blow to the student body and the community. This was a year of illnesses-colds, measles, and Asiatic Flu, each took its turn. At one time in November the student body dwindled to half its size because of the epidemic of Asiatic Flu. Co-operation of the teachers and students made events like Senior Career Day, the Alumni Dance, and the Drama Club Play Festival enjoy- able occasions. After-game dances, assemblies, and the junior play were well attended by both teachers and students. Voting in favor of the special school tax election and attending school functions showed the community's interest in its school. Friendship among teachers, students, and the people of the community brought about the success of the 1958 school year.
