FIIREWURII ln The pages oT This book, we oT The l94I annual sTaTT have Tried To show, along wiTh currenT acTiviTies, some oT our earlier hisTory and TradiTions. For TwenTy years The hisTory oT PiedmonT High School has unToldedq during This Time growTh and developmenT in all Things, physical, menTal, and spiriTual, have been The goal oT The Highlanders. We have come now To a place where iT may be well To Turn and look aT The road over which our predecessors Traveled. ln The sTory oT our school There are Tive daTes oT signal imporTance: l92l-Founding oT The Senior High School i922-ConsTrucTion oT The Senior High Building l924-Con T i ' i s rucTlon OT The Junior High Building I935-AddiTion oT Quad and Rally CourT I938-AddiTion oT The New Library When Tounded, PiedmonT High School was composed of many groups Trom diTTerenT schools. The TirsT Tew years were Times oT real sTruggleg molding The various TacTions inTo a uniTed' sTudenT body was no simple Task. True pioneers were our superinTendenT, Mr. Jones, and The members oT The early TaculTy and school board. They were TighTing on a real TronTier. IT was Their vision and hard work ThaT made success possible. IT is This same inTeresT on The parT oT our adminisTraTors ThaT Today seTs our high sTandards and helps us To achieve our ideals. Housed in an abandoned casino and in oTher nondescripT buildings, The TalTering young school looked Toward a seemingly doubTTul TuTure. Could such an inTanT organizaTion hope ever To win a place among sTrong and well-esTab- lished compeTiTors? YeT, looking abouT us, we see ThaT we now have won a place oT disTincT' among The schools oT This area. ion Showing The energy and deTerminaTion ThaT have since become characTerisTic oT The Clan, The sTudenT body began governmenTal organizaTion. A presidenT and a board OT conTrol were chosen, and a consTiTuTion was draTTed. The heraldry oT The school was originaTed3 our ScoTch Theme, our colors oT purple and whiTe, our moTTo, Achieve The Honorable, our school shield--all were some oT The decisions oT The Time. BuT These were noT The only greaT sTeps Taken aT The Time. Clubs, publicaTions, and oTher acTi- viTies were insTiTuTed.
