EDITOR Helen Groves ASSISTANT EDITOR John Ed Glover ADVISER Mrs. Bess Snyder Mohl The Petro-Schola 1960 Published By The Senior Class Petersburg High School Petersburg, West Virginia Volume Number Fifteen Foreword While telling the story of the events of the present school year, we are looking toward the future when a new high school plant will provide adequate buildings and equipment for the increasing school enrollment. We invite attention to the architect’s drawing of the entrance to the new building, and to the floor and grounds plan on pages four and five. We acknowledge the help we have received from the many people in various ways as we have worked together to publish this, the fifteenth volume of The Petro-Schola. We, as a class, pay tribute to our deceased classmate, Betty Kimble.

(2) selecting adequate experiences and subject matter, (3) knowing what constitutes desirable conduct for children and why, (4) deciding on methods to use, emphases to make, values to prefer, conditions to strive for, and changes to advocate. We recognize that the school exists primarily for the benefit of the boys and girls, and it is there- fore the purpose of this school to strive to keep its program geared to meet the needs of the youth it serves. It is our sincere belief that these needs and educational objectives can be met only by careful and cooperative planning by principal, teachers, and stu- dents. Mr. Sites, Principal and Mrs. Stickler, Secretary. We Believe .... To complete the statement of school philosophy, of which the foregoing is a general introduction, each department set up its own ideals and built its program to meet specific purposes, all departments working toward a cooperative and unified curriculum. The staff and administration of Petersburg High School recognize each pupil as an individual and be- lieve the school should assist each child in developing certain desirable habits, to acquire essential facts and basic skills at his maturity level, and to grow through maximum development of his individual capa- cities and special talents, so that by living success- fully in the present, he may be better fitted to live and contribute to a democratic society. We believe it is our business to make successes rather than failures. Standards should be sufficiently high to chal- lenge all pupils to do quality work with adjustments made fortheslow learners which will encourage them to do their best and to master minimum essentials. We believe it is our task to guide the growth and development of boys and girls in a manner which will better enable them to become competent and social- minded citizens of our country, so that they will work for the common welfare, and be a more intelli- gent and altruistic generation than previous ones. We assume responsibilities in: (1) Helping children who have diverse personalitites and backgrounds, Miss Grace Hott, Financial Secretary of county schools, and Miss Betty Groves, clerk in county office.

Periodic Check-Up of Standards PHS Has On December 17, a committee representing North Central Association of Secondary Schools and Colleges returned for a periodic check-up todetermine if our school is maintaining the necessary high standards for continued membership. The report follows: PETERSBURG HIGH SCHOOL EVALUATION REPORT 1959-60 COMMENDATIONS 1. Good administrative practices are in evidence. Records are well kept, and a good financial account- ing system is used. 2. There is evidence that everything possible has been done to overcome deficiencies resulting from the unsatisfactory building situation. Existing facil- ities are being used in a most efficient way. 3. The general attitude of the students reflects good leadership and teaching as evidenced by their atten- tiveness and seriousness of purpose. 4. Much of the teaching is well above average. How- ever, due to the serious difficulty in securing a suf- ficient number of qualified teachers, some defic- iencies exist. 5. The expanded vocational agriculture and shop program is in line with the need of this agricultural area. 6. A number of programs of the school are worthy of commendation. Three that appear to be outstanding are; a. The continued efforts of the English depart- ment over a period of years to organize, coordinate and enrich a curriculum to meet the challenge of time. b. The language arts program in the junior high school to incorporate reading, writing, spelling, and language skills. c. The emphasis placed on health instruction in both physical education and science classes. 2. In view of the current emphasis on science, mathe- matics and foreign languages, it is recommended that capable students be continually encouraged to take these courses. 3. That every effort be continued to obtain qualified teachers. 4. The instructional program should continue to be the most important part of the total school program with special emphasis on motivation and enrichment. 5. Additional administrative and guidance personnel is recommended. A high school with an enrollment the size of Petersburg should have both a director of guidance and an assistant principal. 6. It is urgently recommended that immediate steps be taken to correct plant deficiencies as follows: a. Provide classrooms of adequate size and accessibly located. b. Comply with recommendations of state fire marshall which is the abandonment of A and B buildings for classroom purposes. c. Provide adequate space and proper location for library and science laboratories. d. Expand present cafeteria to meet needs of students. e. That a concerted effort be made on the part of the board of education and school administration to make the public aware of the urgent need of new buildings for the high school. ’ The Evaluation Committee meeting with a group of students as a part of the procedure in gathering material for the evaluation report to be submitted to the North Central Association of Secondary Schools and Colleges to determine if standards are being maintained. RE COMME NDA TIONS 1. Student activities which are now in- cluded in the school program are afford- ing valuable experiences for participants and it is therefore recommended that provisions be made for every student to have an opportunity to take part in some club activity. However, it is question- able whether a student should be permit- ted to work in the area of several activi- ties at the same time. W. Va. Geography “We believe that through familiarity with the events of the past and the effect these had upon the life of the people, we are enabled to enrich present living and be in a better position to prepare for the future.” Pictured above are Marsha Hill, Mary Kay Judy, Joseph Garber, Roy Stephen Harman. In the picture to the right George Reid, John Hott, Becky Alt, and Marie VanMeter a re working on a W. Va. geography project. All members of the seventh grade had a chance to work on the exhibits. The Vocational Agriculture program is housed in the southern end of the C Building in the western corner of the campus. The department consists of a well-equipped shop, lecture room, office and supply room. Mr. Nestor and Mr. Chaddock carry on the work in the newly expanded program of two teachers for the day school while Mr. Stark works with the out of school classes. In Vo-Ag the training of All-Day students is broken down into three phases, namely class- room instruction, farm mechanics training and supervised farm visitations. The Total P rogram consists of Adult Fa rmer Classes, Young Farmer Classes and the All-Day Students. The boys have several jobs going at the same time in this well - equipped shop. Pa rticula rly interesting is the wagon which had to be moved to one side in order to let the other activities be seen. David Stump, Bill Hatcher, Eulis Yokum, and Carrol] Smith attending the National F. F. A. Convention held in Kansas City, Missouri. They placed in the Bronze Emblem Group in the poultry judging contest. 9 Eddie Hartman and Mr. Snyder Driver Training Car. Forty students were given the opportunity to take the driver training course during the two semesters. In the Driver Education program, students who have reached the legal age to be certified as drivers are accepted in classes. Actual practice of behind-the-wheel training is exercised on the highway until the individual is taught to drive prudently and to know his or her responsibility as a driver. The training cars are furnished by semesters by the Ours Chevrolet, Inc. and the Roby Ford Company. The two clothing groups shown in the accompanying pictures represent one area of the vocational homemaking program. Other re- commended areas included in a three year course are consumer education, personal and family re- lationships, food for the family, housing.health and home safety, management of the home, child care and recreational and emotional experiences for the family. The program is centered on the family and is planned to meet the physical, social, spiritual, and emotional needs of families. Bookkeeping Class Finishing the set The Commercial Department of P. H. S. offers Typing I, Typing II, Business English, Business Math, and Bookkeeping, taught by Miss Morton and Mrs. Wetsel. The commercial department recognizes that it has three primary purposes: 1. To contribute to the student’s social- civic adjustment through the development of desirable character traits, personality facets, and work habits. 2. To develop skills of commercial busi- ness for those who do not wish to attend college. 3. To teach skills and abilities which the student may employ to enrich his personal life and community life, and as a basis for further learning. At right , the typingllclass.Notice the attractive bulletin board. Mrs. Wetsel and her business English class. Biology class studying crayfish and parasites. The biological phase of education must help the individual to develop a clear understanding of the living things around him and aid him to achieve clear, independent thinking unswayed by propaganda, emotionalism, and superstition. Biology classes make the best of a crowded situation in a regular classroom serving as a laboratory, but how much more could be accomplished with the proper equipment and type of classroom! Lowell Alt and Tom Strawderman are pictured above as they received the first- place awards from A. K. Van Scoy of the Keyser Kiwanis Club, during the climax of the Regional Science Fair held at Potomac State College, 1959. In the field of science we believe the student will make applicationofbasic scientific principles only if he has the interest and eagerness to explore new horizons. We have, therefore, concluded that it is necessary to challenge students scientific think- ing to the very limit of his or her ability,using mathematics in every unit in detail, as math is not separable from science. If we can inte- grate math with science as it is being used to- day, we will have prepared each pupil to exist in a scientific world and be prepared for college or for entering the field of his choice. We begin the math in the junior high school in such classes as the one on the left taught by Mr. Andrick, andproceed on through geometry, with Mr. Bosley teaching the advanced classes. The title of the exhibit was “Con- trolling Electric Currents for the Strobe Light and Simple Bell.” This was the first time P. H. S. has been represented in a regional science fair. Algebra and geometry constantly in- volve, after learning essential processes, the search for a logical plan of method of problem solution. Darlene checks her equations with Mr. Deahl while others in the chemistry class work with data on experiments. Although the lab- oratory has been improved, it is still crowded and inconvenient for today’s teaching. Mr. Bosley and Harlen Keplinger lead off in the geometry class. That drawing looks mighty impressive. Girls using a study period help prepare cup cakes for Easter lunch. Cafeteria Serves Large Number An average of 250 students eat lunch in the cafeteria each day during the school year. Three cooks are employed, and Mrs. Thompson super- vises the program. Student assistants help with the serving. Homemaking classes, during a unit in school lunch planning, plan the meals for a period of time, and while the cooks prepare the greater part of the meals, the girls prepare some dishes, particularly desserts, since the time for preparing such dishes is limited. Cafeteria cooks Mrs. Opal Veach, Mrs. Zina Rinehart and Mrs. Orville Sites. o rjKzfl? ' r4 -' The women at work preparing lunch in the cafeteria. New tables, new waste container for depositing paper napkins, stainless steel steam table and counters show out in front. Behind the counter is a well equipped preparation and serving area with garbage disposal and dish washer. Another group of homemaking students make a dessert for school lunch. 14 Bus drivers Martin Goldizen, J. D. Riggleman, Sam Goldizen, John Greenwait, Dayton Carr, Wayne Whetzel, Raymond Kesner, Philo Mongold, Olin Marshall. In addition to being a bus driver, Ray- mond Kesner doubles as one of the county maintenance men. Mr. Arnold Lahman and Mr. Charles Sears are custodians of the buildings on the campus. 15 MRS.

This Tom Thumb Wedding was given while several of the present Seniors were in the first grade with Mrs. Thomas Sites as their teacher. Student assistants work at the desk card catalog. Others use the library for a study hall in the shortage of other rooms that could be designated and used for that purpose. The bulletin board carries jackets of new books available for student use. During the Christmas season the various departments, class- rooms, or home rooms, used a variety of methods to deco- rate in honor of the Christmas spirit. The above two fresh- man girls drew the design on the chalk board. Tom Thumbs now grown up. , . The Christmas setting above was made on a table, by the seventh grade students in Mrs. Alkire's language arts class in Johnson Run School annex.

Vikings Win the All-Important Games Coach Carroll Michael, in his first season as head cage mentor, coached the Vikings to an 8 win'- ll loss season. Despite the won-lost record, two all-important wins over Moorefield’s Yellow Jackets made the season a truly successful one. Another highlight of the season was an impressive 59-53 victory over Keyser. Two seniors, Dave Koontz and Benny Roby, bowed out this year. Dave, a tough competitor has been a first stringer since his sophomore year. Benny Roby has been reserve center for the past two seasons. With four first stringers returning next year, the Vikings are looking forward to a highly successful season. These boys are Ernie Nelson, Harold Michael, Louie Alt, and Eddie Hartman. Ronnie Barr, who was unable to play this year due to an injury should also figure prominently in next year’s plans. The A Gymnasium where practices and games are held.
