History of the Class of 1956 When Miss Maude Fox and Miss Matthews gathered 122 little girls and boys into their rooms twelve years ago, no doubt there was a question in their minds as to what these pupils would do andbecome before they were finally full-fledged seniors. I a m sure that our teachers did their best to see that we were off to a good start. By the time we had learned how to count, how to read, and how to write, we were off to spend a year with our second grade teachers, Mrs. May Brady and Miss Mary Swaim. One thing that we liked especially this year was learning ''A Visit From St. Nicholas'', because we not only learned the poem, but also we drew pictures illustrating it. I think everyone will agree that the third grade was rather hard, because it was during this year that we learned our multiplication tables under Miss Rose Parris h and Mrs. Sawyer. Mrs. Sawyer was again our teacher in the fourth grade, along with Miss Una Plott. No one has forgotten that little Dutch play which we gave in chapel. Then we learned to enjoy geography as Miss Plott told us wonderful stories of her travels. We were beginning to feel like big girls and boys when we entered Mrs. Hammond's and Miss Hughes' fifth grades. We learned new experiences every day in the next two years. Miss Beulah Rich and Miss Biggs taught us in the sixth grade, and Miss Ellen Barker and Mrs. Lineberry taught us in the seventh. Until this time, our principal had been Mr. H. H. Hamilton, but in 1944, we welcomed Mr. R. C. White into our school. Two years later, he was followed by Mr. W. A. Young. The present princi- pal, Mr. L. H. Ballard, came in 1948. With the help of Mrs. Morgan and Miss Neece, we finished the eighth grade. Some of the girls and boys saw their first dating daysthis year. Wewelcomedthe students fron New Market and Worth- ville schools into our circle. On a bright day in September, just four short years ago, our class startedto school with a differ- ent feeling. For we were in High School-Freshmen, at last. Our class had the usual Freshman confusion. We had several teachers, but finally settled down with Mrs. Young and Mrs. Spivey. We were glad that new students from Providence joinedour class. Toward the last of school, we enjoyed a wiener-roast at Walker's Mill.
