Class of 1934 9 JUNIOR HIGH SCHOOL This year has been the most successful one for the Junior High School. Each room has succeeded in getting two perfect days. Two assembly programs were given—March—“Everybody.” a morality play was kindly received by the Senior High; on May 9th—A Radio Program and a Circus were presented. The majority of the pupils took part. This was an English project headed by Harriett Lane and Jean Peck. The spirit and co-operation of all the pupils was noticeable. The eighth grade of the Junior High School having been “branded” with the name of the noisiest room, entered the seventh grade with this reputation. They have worked hard to overcome this handicap. This year they organized a club entitled W. K. W. C. (We Know We Can) which has proved very successful. As a result Room 14 now leads in scholarship, dramatics and attendance. They have had 65 perfect days, 20 in succession. They also have received their class pins which arc most attractive. A monthly paper was issued by Room 14. with the assistance of Miss Sullivan’s typing class. Pupils that left during the year were from room 14. Robert Baily, Xigmient Wolenski, and Lee Slaughter; from room io. Joseph Carney, John Greninski, Violet Tern pieman. Pupils that entered dining the year were; Room 15. Doyens Nemeckay; Room 14, Albert D’Anna, Room 10, Louis Barney.
