HIGH SCHOOL BUILDING. THIS BUILDING IS THE NEWER BUILD- ING OF THE GROUP AND IS FOR GRADES 7-12. AND ALSO CONTAINS THE GYMNASIUM. BUILT IN 1922. Mount Gilead has had an established school since l853, when the first union building was erected. Previous to this time a small grammar school was conducted by Mrs. Henry Shedd in the George Cross home. The original union build- ing was torn down and a new one was erected. The new one that was built, is still used as the elementary school building but was originally a combined institution with seven rooms used for elementary training and one for high school. This building is the oldest building of the four that are now in use: it is sixty-eight years old. ln l905, a new high school building was erected. This building is still used for the music department, Vocational shops and special classes. ln 1922, the building which is now used as the high school, was constructed. The school campus has about 16 acres, in which are in- cluded a baseball diamond, football field, swimming pool, tennis and badminton courts. These excellent community facilities were sponsored by the Mount Gilead Kiwanis Club. HHH HHHHHH Mount Gilead High School is a member of the North Cen- tral association of schools. This means that the credits of any Mount Gilead graduate would be accepted in the universities and colleges of the neighboring states. It is necessary for a school to achieve high standards of accomplishment and meet the strict rating schedule set up by the North Central Association in order to be eligible for this honor.

i HIHH SEHUHI Hlllllllll i The bell rings! Students enter the auditorium, with the strains ot band music beating in their ears. Each class as- sembles in its appointed section and joins in the singing of America, God Bless America, America the Beautiful. The assembly program for the-day follows the group singing, led by Mr. Hard. Two outstanding programs this year were the Hi-Y Christ- mas program, and the Girl-Reserve services each morning of Holy Week. Almost all the students will agree that our best speaker of the year was Mr. Arthur Horrocks of the Goodyear Tire and Rubber Company. Several programs, consisting of music, plays, and read- ings, were student-planned. Others were presented by var- ious classes, including the girls' and boys' physical-education classes and the public-speaking class. There were two exchange assemblies-Edison and Mans- field. In addition to the regular assembly programs we had three full-length picture showsA Swiss Family Robinson, loe Brown in The Gladiator, and Arthur Lake in Tuttle- Tuggerf' A very enjoyable noon dance was also sponsored by the Student Council. As a grand climax to a year of educational and cultural programs, comes Senior Day, which is always an uproar of confusion from start to finish. Another year of interesting assemblies ends and contrib- utes to the history of Mount Gilead School.
