This first high school course was for one year only and was offered in an old wooden structure Goan town. In 1913 the high school was moved to the present grade school building, but it was not yet an accredited institution. Finally, in 1918, the first class to finish a'four year course was proudly graduated. From this time on, until lsit, when the present stru- cture was erected, the high school increased in size, and steadily a ded to its curriculn, until it was up to the standard required for college entrance. At the present time the curriculm includes the foll- owing departments: English, science, mathematics, music, foreign language, commercial, and the two vocational det- artments, Smith-Hughes agriculture and Smith-Hughes home econcmics. . . Hating very high in the life of the school and in student interest, arc the extra-curricular activities. Among the foremost of these are athletics, drematics, and Journalism. Each student must be passing in three sub- jects to be eligible to participate in these activities. The three mejor sports are football, basketball, ani baseball. During the year 1955-56, the basketball team was the only one of the sports to enter the county league, although inter-school games rere scheduled for both foot- ball and baseball. Under dramatics, the students present one operetta annually, and two plays, one by the Senior Class, given in the first semester and one by the Junior Class, during the second semester. In addition, there are monthly literary programs, yresented by each class in succession, usually featuring a short ulay or skit. In the feild of Journalism, the students undertake two major activities. The first is a sixteen ,age monthly newspaper, entitled the UNapsuinahU vhich is the official organ of school activities. The second, a project carri- ed on mainly by the Senior Clrss, is the publication of e yearbook which chronicles the year's work. . The girl's league is an active group consisting of all the girls in high school this year, the league spon- sored a penny carnival, and a mothers' and daughters' mixer. I In addition, the boys are members of the Hi-Y, an or- L ganization which stresses moral, physical, and.mental dev- , QQ elopment. The main feature of this group is usually the M'Qk! annual sending of delegates to the HigY Conference. 4 .xx nat xr snirers fs:-uamaI 7h ' ss eigfllll fd .So- 'Bl 922965 ff ' - x QQ N 1 x .

We have been engrossed in the business of fin- ishing up the last stages of e four year period of educa- tion, we have been absorbed with the complex details of commencement activities, and we have had e grand time be- ing impressed with a sense of our own overwhelming imp- ortance. But now that the year has come to e close, and the dey is et hand when we see our work finished, with nothing left for us but to say VGood-Lye', the sense of eletion and importance has somehow dropped from our shoulders, and we feel only sorrow at having to go. On the whole, our four years have been plefsent ones. 'P hevn formed friendrhifs which if hone will lest us through lifeg we have 1 rich store of mcmories thet'will never leave us, we have revrets for our westfd hours, hopes for our future, amhitiwns, unr'ali2Qd drrfhs, end the courage and confidencr of our ycuth. It seems fitting to us at this time, while we are in the mood for sober reflections that me should express our appreciation and gratitude for the wealth so generous- ly bestowed upon us. Grrtitude is difficult to voice adequately, but we do want to think our pzr nts for their sacrifices and prophetic vision in providing us with our dducstiong we went the members of the frculty and the school board to know that we appreciate their efforts on our behalf, and wc went the neoolf of thc community, who hevc supported the school :nd our activities, to real- ize that our appreciation extends to them also. As we think ebout these things, we rfslise that it is not enough for us to simply thank you for thcsf tent- fits. More is exdectfd of as end so, looking into the future, we pledge oursalvcs to bc good citiafns, to lovc our country and to obey its laws, to uphold the traditions of our fathers, and rbove ell, to keep feith with our- selves end our God. v K ci- U ,zxi X jg D N X ,..evf. e s A , we -V A s-,L--'W . .ii sf-'sr-1-h.--........
