Mary Jo Cain Miss Mary Manning Hanner HISTORY OF THE CLASS OF 1943 Let us drift back to the year 1932 when we, the present Senior Class, left our cradles and hobby horses, and gathered at Circle and Park schools to begin a new life. Here we were taught the principles and needs of school in preparation for the long years ahead of us to success. In September of 1938 we entered Junior High, our only stepping stone before reaching our Alma Mater. We had a hard time adjusting ourselves to our new surroundings, teachers, and harder and more advanced courses. These two years in Junior High gave us an idea of what the future held for us. Here we vied with each other for leadership in sports and other activities, making our trek through school a most interesting one. Then came the fall of 1940, and at last, we had achieved our most coveted goal, the portals of Senior High. As we walked into the building on that glorious morning, we carried an air of confidence, but not for long, for alas! Those upperclassmen soon crushed us into meek submission. Here we seemed to have started life anew, but actually we had only moved from one school to another. (J THE 1943 FLORENTINE Eight ★ ★ ★
