The school year 1955-1956 at Monterey High School proved to be a year filled with the excitement of first events in the history of the school, events that will be remem- bered both by the student body and by the community. The building's still being under construction during a large part of the year caused school functions to be altered to fit the available facilities. New traditions being planned also provided a colorful and unusual background for the new high school. Monterey's first assembly of the year was held in the gym because the auditorium had not been completed at that date. In the numeral one is pictured part of the student body applauding the members of the Christian Athletes Association who presented the first assembly. The first pep rally was held September 16 on the tennis court adjacent to the building be- cause the gym was under construction. Pictured below are the MHS cheerleaders leading the first student body in cheers that spirited the Plainsmen on to their first football victory. Another important first event in Mon- terey was the first edition of the school newspaper. The distribution staff of the MONTEREY MIRROR is shown, just before delivery, discussing the first issue of the paper. The four serving lines of the cafeteria on the first day a meal was served were crowded with students and visitors. Approxi- mately 1000 lunches were served by the large staff with the aid of new and im- proved cafeteria equipment. RAGE.Inc Lubbock Tm

—ITT “! I —n II1 '.1 IJI1U ... . First Assembly Finest of the western plains . . . may your spirit never change. These words of the school song were echoed in the hearts of the first student body on March 15, 1956, as the modern auditor- ium of Monterey High School was dedi- cated in an all-school assembly. It was especially fitting that the first assembly be along the theme of the dedication of this first year to the future of the school. Mack Robertson, student body president, presided over the assembly and moderated the dedication skit. Mr. Floyd Honey, principal, addressed the students, giving the accomplishments of the year amid the difficulties of the in- completed building. Mr. Nat Williams, superintendent of the Lubbock Public Schools, directed remarks concerning the committees that co-ordinated plans, not only for the auditorium, but for the entire school. 10
