Unusual in numbers, being the largest class ever graduating from R. H. S., and unusual in what we have ac- complished during our tliree years in higli school. e are graduating in a year which will long be remembereed by all of us, 1932 being the bi-centennial o f the birth of that greatest of all Americans, George ' ashington. Reaching high school with no great ac- claim, we were simply taken for granted — just another Sophie class. But time will tell, and we soon made ourselves seen as well as heard. Our Junior year passed all too quickly with its many activities. As Seniors we have had a most successful vear. Early in November we held the tra- ditional treasure hunt. After a tempting breakfast and the usual formalities the play, The (Jhost Story, was presented in the Auditorium. Perhaps the most memorable occasion of the entire year was the snow party held at W ' rightwood in the latter part of February. Formerly the snow party was in reality Senior Ditch Day, but the last two years it has been turned into the R. H. S. snow party, the classes going to different mountain resorts. After several postponements on account of the unusually heavy fall of rain and snow, the Seniors were fortunate to have a balmy spring day for their snow sports. Dinner and dancing were enjoyed at the lodge. Early in March the Senior play, The Torch- Bearers, was presented to a large and appreciative audience. The cast was exceedingly well chosen and the jilay was one of the best ever presented by a graduating class. Much of the credit for the success of the play must go to Miss Olive J. Smith, who directed it. and to the entire class for its splendid support. The class of 1932 is leaving Redlands High School with a feeling of genuine regret. As we prepare to go our many ways, we look back on the past three years as the most outstanding of our lives. ' e feel we have gained much that will help us to go far on our road to success. We sincerely hope that the faculty and members of the Junior and Sophomore classes will also be unusual and not forget us when we are gone. 17 Marvellously twacl . methodical, and busiiusx-likr. lir joinrd the imprrsiivc dignity of conscious rectitude.

t;iKJllalno Wi)t Jf acultp CHK faculty of Redlaiids Senior High School is composed of a group of in- dividuals with varying tastes and interests, who unite in the effort to teach the students to do better the desirable things in life. The purpose of all education is to make good citizens. The faculty desires to assist students in every way possible to prepare them for this. Occasional faculty meetings are held under the callable leadershi|j of .Mr. Shaper. Here plans and methods are discussed whereby all students mav be given the greatest opportunity for personal development. Although the student body has now almo.st reached eight hundred, the faculty desires, in so far as possible, to give individual attention. This year four new members have joined the teaching staff in our school. Two of these. Miss Edna Fletcher, teacher of home economics, and illiam Richardson, teacher of mathematics, are former graduates from Redlands High School. The other two are Miss Peggy Baum, who teaches French, and Firth Pierce, instructor in the science department. Over ninety per cent of the faculty joined the P.-T. A. this year. They, as well as the students, appreciate the assistance which the P.-T. A. gave in making the costumes for the Washington Pageant during the Week of Flowers. Besides assisting in other ways during the depression, every teacher contributed two per cent of his salary for a p eriod of three months to the Redlands Ihiemployment Fund. Some of the memliers ser e on both the Senior High School Faculty and also on the Junior High School Faculty. This the administration considers advisable and profitable, as it gives to each school teachers who have specialized in some particular field of teaching. Those who are engaged to do this are: Miss Arnold, Miss McKay, Miss ' alsh, Mr. Broderson, Mr. Yount, Mr. Hardy and Mr. Thayer, The teachers have a strong professional interest. The membership in the Cali- fornia Teachers Association is one hundred per cent. Besides this and the City Teachers Club, each one belongs to his own professional group. Mr. Skinner has been chosen as one of the representatives of the Southern Council to serve on the State Council of the C. T. A. Although the teachers are feeling the depre.ssion, two of them have planned a profitable and interesting summer. Mrs. Clara I3entler is planning a trip to Europe, where she will spend most of her time working on her doctor ' s degree in London. Miss Peggy Baum is going to France to study for her doctor ' s degree at Sorbonne Uni- versity. 16 ir h-ii consulted. Ill- was as syiiipathtiii as he -u ' as Jiit iii ' oiis.
