The classes are composed of many different personali15.es and individuals. The classes even differ from year to year. The Fresh- men are shy and quite devoted to getting acquainted with each other. The Sophomores become more bold, they join in committees and organization. The Juniors and Seniors are the leaders of the school, even if some of their examples 2.ren't very good. An educational program is set up to offer many different sub- jects. A student can choose a Commercial course, College Prepara- tory, Agriculture or a General course of study. The Freshmen held the Bunny Hop in March which is their annual dance. The Sophomores Sadie Hawkins dance was a treat for the males of the school, with the girls footing the bills. The I-Hop wasn't held at the time of the publication of this book. But it will be a success as it always is. 11
