-1-J OUR SCHOOL BECOMES A REALITY NAZARETH AREA SENIOR HIGH SCHOOL THE COMET Published by the class of 1956 NAZARETH AREA SENIOR HIGH SCHOOL Nazareth, Pennsylvania Member of Columbia Scholastic Press Association Member of Pennsylvania School Press Association Building Named FOREWORD We, the class of 1956, have pictured some of the many new areas and facilities of the F. A. Marcks Building in our yearbook. We will always remember that we were the first class to graduate from the new Area Senior High School. If, in future years, today's high school students page through the Comet and remember the Blue Eagles winning the Lehigh-Northampton League Championship, the Blue Eagle Cagers competing in the District XI playoffs, the Prom, assemblies, and the Glee Club's Christmas Program, the staff will know that the 1956 Comet was successful. Since the CSPA theme was International Understanding, our staff is sending a 1956 Comet to a high school in Europe to help create better understanding between students in Europe and America. The F.

A. Marcks The F. A. Marcks Building, dedicated on April 8, 1956, was named in honor of Frederick A. Marcks, who, at the end of this school year, will have served the Nazareth Public Schools continuously for forty- seven years and the Joint Area Schools since the inception of the six-district jointure in 1950. Coming to Nazareth in 1909 as a teacher of Physics, German, and English in the local high school, he was elected high school principal in 1910 and five years later, in 1915, supervising principal. When Nazareth passed the 5,000 population mark in 1937 and became a third class district, Mr. Marcks was elected District Superintendent. Since the six-district jointure in 1950, Mr. Marcks served also as superintendent of the secondary schools of the jointure. Under his guidance the schools have made great strides in both their physical and educational pro- grams. During this period both the present Junior High and the modern Area Senior High School buildings, with ample football, baseball, track, and tennis areas, have been completed. Paralleling the physical expansions, the entire curriculum has been expanded and enlarged to keep the educational program abreast the times. In 1918 the commercial curriculum was added; in 1923, music; in 1924, sewing and industrial arts; physical education and the beginning of a sports program in 1926-27; and a department of health in 1928. In 1931 the secondary school was reorganized into a junior and senior high school. In that year the high school library service came into existence. In 1936 instrumental music was introduced. A foods laboratory in 1938 made the home making course complete. A guidance counselor was added to the staff in 1949. Keeping pace with the ever-expanding curriculum and the increased enrollment, the staffs of the combined schools, numbering approximately 15 for both elementary and high school in 1915, now in- clude 71 faculty members, all of whom have college certification. Since the inception of the six-district jointure in 1950, administering the school system has become increasingly complex and difficult. In addition, the planning in connection with the construction of the new building has made the superintendent’s work more strenuous and time- consuming. The schools of the community and the jointure owe much to the foresight, careful planning, and the devotion of this educator. Area School Board Seated: I . A. Marcks, Superintendent; Peter F.

After acquiring a building site, plans were formulated, approved, bonds issued, and ground was broken on February 6, 1952. Approximately two years and eight months later, on October 3, 1955, the partially completed new high school was opened. The following April 8, 1956, the new F. A. Marcks Building was dedicated. To the Joint Committee, the School Board, and the superintendent much credit is due for the foresight, time, and cooperative effort used in planning and erecting a modern building for the improvement of the educational facilities of the students of the area school population.

At the end of this school year Mr. Marcks will have completed forty-seven years in the Nazareth Public Schools as a teacher, prin- cipal, and superintendent; and the Nazareth Schools owe much to the wisdom, foresight, and efforts of this educator. While Superintendent Marcks reads a report, his secretary, Mrs. Margaret Sheklelski, looks on. Moving into the new F. A. Marcks Building created new problems for Dr. Lee Graver, high school prin- cipal. In addition to his regular duties of preparing student and teacher sched- ules and supervising in- struction and the numerous extracurricular activities, he attended to the practical problems of adapting the various facilities of the new building. He was respon- sible for checking the numerous details that need- ed completing about the building. Dr. Lee Graver, principal, goes over a report with Mrs. Elaine Doyle, his secretary. 3 Mary Sloat and Josephine Tintera Robert Reichard and Elizabeth Bordncr Mrs. Miriam Zell and Quentin MARY SLOAT Cafeteria Manager JOSEPHINE TINTERA School Surse ROBERT REICHARD Guidance Student Council Assembly Progra n s Junior Class Adviser Seated: William Trefny, Joseph Amoroso.

For a diploma each course requires 13 1 5 units of work, including 1 1 5 units of Health and Physical Education. Each of the three courses requires two full units in English and Social Studies each year. The Academic Course is designed for those stu- dents who expect to continue their education in institutions of higher learning.

Through the Guidance Coun- selor plans are made for college entrance examinations and the Pennsylvania State Employment Service examinations. Resides helping students select the course best suited to their needs, a series of tests, interviews, and career conferences are arranged in an attempt to fulfill the vocational needs of students.

By November 3, sufficient progress had been made to have a photographer take approximately fifty pictures. Through layout, copy, and art work the Comet gives an over-all picture of our first year in the new F. A. Marcks Building. This year the layout work and planning were done in the new Activity Room during the seventh period on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday. Again four underclassmen two juniors and two sophomores were trained in yearbook planning. During the activity periods the various staffs worked to produce and finance the yearbook. On October 15 and 16 two staff members and a faculty adviser attended the Columbia University Press Association Yearbook Conference in New York. At this conference the CSPA announced that the 1955 Comet was a Medalist winner. The advisers of the yearbook are Miss Elizabeth Sloat, editorial, typing, and layout; Miss Jean Clute, layout and art; Mrs. Belva Kolessar, business.

Assisted by the staff and the advisors Mr. J. Fredric Knecht and Mr. Quentin Zell the five co-editors Phyllis Buss, Beatrice Knecht, Kathryn Weiss, Rosemarie Hoffmeister, and Beverly Shimaski had charge of the paper this year.
