THE N A P A N E T 1936 Diploma Hour The graduating class of 1936 numbers 63. There are 31 boys and 32 girls, the largest class to have been graduated from Nappanee High School. June is the most popular month and December the least popular. Eleven students celebrate birthdays in June, nine in October, three in November and two in December. The rest of the birthdays are almost equally scattered during the other eight months. One pair of real twins celebrate May 2nd. Two graduates celebrate February 8th, two October 21st, two November 9th, and three October 10th. With one exception, these pairs are of the same age. Fifty-one of the graduates were born in 1918, seven in 1917, two in 1916, and three in 1919. The three babies of the class are Norma Pippenger, Elta Holaway, and Dorothy Hatfield—Norma being the youngest, age 17 years and 15 days. The average age of the boys is 18 years, 0 months, 13 days. The average age of the girls is 18 years, 0 months, M days. This is a low average for boys graduating from our high school. There has been only one younger group (1931) during the past eleven years. The girls are younger than four other groups of girls during the past eleven years. Ninety children were enrolled in the first grade during the year 1924-25. Of those ninety, thirty-six are on the platform tonight, seventeen are still in high school, and we hope will be graduated later. The other thirty-nine have either moved away or dropped out of school. Eighteen of these graduates are classed as rural while forty-five live in Nappanee. The attendance of this class has been exceptionally good. A few have had bad luck during their senior year. Donald Miller and John Phillips had perfect records until this last year. First honors for attendance go to Evelyn Christner who has been neither tardy nor absent. Second honors go to Bessie Adams who was never absent, but tardy once. Other seniors who missed four days or less during four years are: Dorothy Dumph, James Richcreek, Harold Kring, Margaret Rehrer, Elta Holaway, and Virginia Slabaugh. Robert Callander is Valedictorian. Kenneth Curtis is Salutatorian. Commencement is at the Civic Auditorium, May 22, 1936. TWELVE
