19 THE ECHO NME? CLASS HISTORY fCOntinuedl Charles Ullrich, Gloria Triola, Carole Buschbaum, Janet Oteiza, and Walter Spengler. While in the sixth grades we went on several trips, including the Bronx Zoo, Museum of Natural History, and the Planetarium. This was our big year, for in June we graduated from sixth grade into the Junior High School departmental work. Starting in the seventh grade under the guidance of Mrs. Stever and Miss Enright, we had to acquaint ourselves with new rules and regulations, changing of classes and getting used to having gym three times a week. We enjoyed being in the seventh grade because there was an assembly every Friday. This year we could join a club, and besides this, there were many other school activities, Our teachers in the eighth grade were Miss Enright and Mr. Spinelli. During this year we could join the Dancing Class with the ninth grade and we enjoyed our Thursday evenings very much. Some of the girls felt greatly honored to be chosen by Miss Refsnyder to cook and serve the Board of Education dinner in April, and also some of the girls were chosen as cheerleaders for the school. f Our boys were active in sports and at the end of the year, seven of our members were inducted into the Honor Society. Time has passed quickly since we entered Junior High School and now we are in ninth grade where we have had many pleasant times. A few new pupils--Madeline Kendel, Marilyn Pelton, Albert Bolter, Warren Neumann, Fred Fischer, George Celtrick, Jerry Payne, May Sisco, and Therese Canzler joined our group in September and we have 56 members in our class. Our homeroom teachers are Mrs. Martin and Mr. Serio. Our Class -- The Forty-Niners 1--have tried to tell you of the interesting events of this year as you read through this book and we hope that you will enjoy them with us.
