Well-known throughout the state of Missouri as well as at home in Raytown, the Music Department of Raytown High School has continued to uphold its superior standards. Each year the band, orchestra, choir, and glee clubs are asked to perform at many civic, school, state, and national events. A number of concerts are given annually by the band and orchestra while the choir has participated in several school assemblies and pep rallies. It is the objective and purpose of the department to present a cultural program of education and entertainment to all of those involved in the music classes. Teaching the student appreciation of the arts and preparing him for future art education is achieved through the work of the Art De- partment. The program is basic with the re- quirement that all students complete all problems and projects each quarter. Included in these projects are drawing and design problems, paper and crafts, and book Work with tests. The Art Department, which sponsors the Brush and Pallet Club helps make the cafeteria festive during such holidays as Halloween, Thanksgiving, Christmas and Easter. Dave Burleson works on intricate sculpture of Balsa Wood.

A Sound Mind in a Sound Body Is Motto of the Coaches Because of the establishment of the National Physical Fitness Program by the late President Kennedy, more body building activities were brought into this year's program at Raytown High. In the girls' gym classes, the emphasis this year has been rhythm. Among the activities in the girls' program are basketball, volleyball, field hockey, and bowling. As an extra activity, the girls spent a few days playing touch football. Equipment to play shuffleboard was added to the department this year. The gym teachers are attempting to change the program each year to offer a more interesting schedule for the Raytown girls. The boys' athletic program offers a wide variety of sports including football, basketball, wrestling, track, golf, and cross country.Through this program the department strives to help the boys to become leaders not only in their activ- ities, but in 'school as well. Students learn to gain self-confidence and to achieve the ability to lead. They acquire self-discipline and sports- manship and know the importance of being physically fit. Through team athletics the student remembers to place the team ahead of himself and he learns that everywhere he goes, he is representing his school. Athletic scholarships are available to those outstanding athletes who rank in the upper two- thirds of their class.
