I guess we were a little rowdy in '55, but we were only freshmen then. N.H.H.S. was big, impressive, and even a little frightening at our first glance. We soon got into the routine of things though, and started on the long road to graduation. That was the year of the big in- spection, and our class pitched right in by sanding desks! We were also the first class to escape initiation, much to the disappointment of the upperclassmen! All in all, we got a lot out of our freshman year. At least we had a lot of fun! By the time '56 rolled around, we were right at home at good old N.H.H.S. We got right into the swing of things by learning a little salesmanship. We sold everything from magazines to fire extin- guishers! Our money wasn't frittered away though; we used some to purchase a new flag for the gym. Along with the honor of having our candidate chosen Harvest Queen, we won the intramural basketball tournament, which we thought was pretty good for underclassmen! Although we appreciated learning, we mixed it generously with parties and fun, and had a year to remember. September of '57 found us proudly wearing our new title of Upperclassmen. As juniors, one of our main goals was to make money. From our usual magazine sales, we branched into pop machines, snacks bars, and dances. Most of the money went into the prom, which of course, was a big success. Our junior year also found us proudly wearing our new class rings. Our contribution to show business was the play, The Ghost House. Our senior year was represented by the magical number '59, that appears on our class rings. Echos, and of course, diplomas. It stands for that one last big year at N.H.H.S., the year we put into practice all the things we had learned by the experiences of the last four years. The big projects of the year, the Tattler and the Echo publications, were accomplished by the planning and teamwork of the class. Again we had the honor of having our candidate chosen as Harvest Queen. This year we had the additional honor of having a member of our class win the title of Homecoming Queen. If he had seen our play, I’m sure Mark Twain would have gotten a chuckle out of our presentation of Tom Sawyer! The prom brought the year almost to a close, and before we realized it, graduation was upon us. We then could realize what the past four years had meant to us, and the memories we would take with us as we stepped into a new part of life.
