Class History In the fall of 1934 under the able direction of Miss Dorothy Porter, 31 happy excited children started their educational careers. Of these 31, ten appear as members of the graduating class on the stage this afternoon: P. Bennett, D. Boulanger, R. Cloutier, J. Cof- fey, M. Converse, K. Dow, T. Leach, R. McNamara, E. Springer, and W. Webster. Under the guidance of Miss Alice Dwinell, we spent a very pleasant and beneficial second year. Our third stop on our educational voyage was spent with Miss Irene Butler and proved exciting and profitably spent. In the fall of 1937 we journeyed upstairs and became the problem students of Miss Thelma Stearns. Our fifth year found our enrollment somewhat diminished with our teacher, Miss Ila Marshall. Our senior” year at the graded school was spent under the direction of Miss Pearl Shannon. This finished our careers in the graded school. The next fall, 14 bewildered and excited students sat in front of Miss Eola Goodrich to begin their first year in the high school building. The second year in the Junior High we changed teachers, and Miss Ellen Lovell took over. Students from Evansville, Brownington, Irasburg, Coventry, and Charleston increased our enrollment to 44, at the outstart of our first high school year. However, the number gradually decreased. Our schedule brought us in contact with most of the members of the faculty and we gradually began to get acquainted with our fellow students. Under our talented Sophomore sponsor, Miss Theresa Coderre, we spent an enjoyable Sophomore year. As we advanced up the ladder of education, we came under the very capable sponsor- ship of Mrs. Joene Bisaccia. During this year we lost two fellow students to the U. S. Navy, George Stone and Larry Perry. We are very glad to have George back with us now. Also during this year (to the amazement of us all), we won the competition cup twice. This year under the combined guidance of Mrs. Davies and Miss Gretta Rowe, we complete our High School education. The grad- uating class here this afternoon is comprised of 26 members. They are: M. Converse, P. Bennett, A. Kahlstrom, R. McNamara, S. Marsh, P. Wells, K. Smith, K. Dow, R. Cloutier, G. Messier, B. Webster, R. Perry, A. Sias, B. Perry, J. Coffey, T. Leach, N. Dwyer, L. Gray, E. Hunt, E. Springer, B. Picket, J. Murphy, D. Boulanger, R. Tinker, R. Gallup, and G. Stone. PAGE .NINETEEN
