CLASS HISTORY We, the Class of 1955, have finished the first and most important step of our lives. Now we would like to review a few of the happenings of the last twelve years. We entered the first grade in September 1943, but as of now, there are just a few left who were there to witness that memorable occasion. Our teacher was Mrs. Kirkton, but she was unable to teach us for the full year because of illness. Mrs. Marett taught us during the remainder of our first year. At this time we had little thought of even finishing grade school, but on being promoted to the second grade, we began to anticipate the time when we would be on the second floor and then maybe the sixth grade. Miss Gole was our second grade teacher and was well-liked since nobody received a spanking that year. We thought we were very fortunate in our third year for this was the first time that a third grade was to have a room on the second floor. Our teacher that year was Mrs. Burns and we were not so lucky with the lickings that year. We then progressed to the fourth grade. Our teacher was Miss Upton and we rememe ber how we used to enjoy the stories of her life as a missionary in Bolivia. Two new members joined our class that year. They were jim Pierce and Paul Porter. Mrs. Gharst took over in the fifth grade and under her guidance we had a very event- ful and happy year as we climbed the fifth rung of the elementary ladder. Then we gained the summit, or so it seemed, as we entered the sixth grade. Under the instruction of Mrs. Wisler, we reached the height of intellectualism. jack Hubbard joined us this year. As We entered the seventh grade, we discovered very quickly that instead of being at the top, we were again at the beginning. However, we rapidly became accustomed to life in high school and completed a very interesting first year in N.L.H.S. The eighth grade saw us preparing in anticipation of our graduation from junior High and again we were big shots only to be let down on entering high school. jane Weaver joined us this year. Our Freshman year was a big one as usual with the coming of the new students from Fitchville, Hartland, and Glarksfield. These students were: Stanley Switzer, Royce Ganz, Shirley Knudsen, Rolland Burton Cwho had moved to Fitchvillel, Phillip Schneiter, joan Bilton, Mary Ann Suda, Patty Parker, Rose Varga, Virginia Coy, Fritz Sauer, and Rich- ard Searight. Again in our sophomore year a new group of students came in, this time from Roches- ter. These were: Ted Hardy, Velma King, joe Gorsuch, Marolyn Fye, Bob Wolfe, jo- anne Ward, Mabel Ward, and Joe Wolfe. Another new entry from Greenwich was Nancy Logan. Our Junior year was filled with many activities, including our junior play, State Fair the first to be sponsored by the Thespian Society, and the junior-Senior Prom which climaxed a most eventful year. Bill Gregory joined our class this year. It was our privilege to be the last class to enter school under the supervision of M1'. Ira L. Landes, for he retired at the end of our first year in 1944. Our next superinten- dent was Mr. D. P. Bodenbender, who was here for three years. At his departure in 1947, the superintendency was taken by Mr. K. G. DcGood, who was here for five years. At the beginning of our sophomore year in 1952, Mr. E. Schacht came to New Lon- don as superintendent and it is under his supervision that we graduate.
