On September 7, 1937, 101 bewildered freshmen swarmed through the halls of Reedsburg High School. Some were tall, some were short, but all were confused. These ambitious green freshmen launched on their career through high school under the guidance of their faculty advisor, Miss I eFevre and their class officers who were elected at the first class meeting. Soon activities for the freshmen began and they proved their school spirit at the pep-pro-gram for the Homecoming game by putting on a radio broadcast. The freshmen have been well represented in all school activities. They rank high in loyalty points and gave the other classes plenty of competition. To prove they aren’t far behind their upper classmen, many freshies were seen at the annual Junior Prom; and besides attending the parties of the other classes the freshmen sponsored an all-school party in May. With all of these activities, a successful year has been completed, and they are looking forward to three more such enjoyable years.

0 u R A C T I V I T Y S C H 0 0 L Reedsburg High School is the scene of a new type of school curriculum this year. The need for an activity period in which pupils have time and opportunity to find themselves, and to Income proficient in activities which will help them after graduation has long l een felt. The solution which combines an ordinary program with a time for avocations has been found. The school day begins at eight o’clock in the morning and continues until four in the afternoon. During each day there are seven one-hour | eriods. All academic and required courses of study are scheduled between the hours of nine and three. Regular classes meet four days a week, the classes being staggered so that a different period is free each day. Each pupil is required to enter at least two activities for the year, as well as carry his regular subjects. To meet the needs and varied interests of the students, a wide and interesting activity program was arranged. Students could make their choice from a list of thirty different clubs. The activity program has as one of its added features the incorporation into school activities of many rural students who ordinarily found it necessary to leave school early and miss extracurricular work. The periods between eight and nine in the morning and three and four in the afternoon are devoted to activity every day in the week. The large activity groups have the first opportunity. The eight to nine period is given over to the instrumental groups, band and orchestra, while the three to four period is devoted to vocal work, debate, forensics and athletic training. By giving over the last period in the day to the above mentioned activities, the rural student enrollment in these activities has been greatly increased. By starting at three o’clock the rural group may be dismissed not later than four-thirty, which gives all ample time to get home. Page twenty-eight
