the rocket ROCKET STAFF STAFF FOR THE first time work in various departments of the Rocket has been made a school project. The selling of ads and subscriptions was handled by the Salesmanship Class, under the direction of Mrs. Prince, while the Senior Art Class produced the block prints which grace our divisional pages. This plan of work has been most satisfactory and we hope to continue it in future years. In the editorial division we find a small but capable Rocket staff. Under the guidance of Mrs. Holmead, a yearbook of which we are quite proud has been published. Only the cooperation and interest in the yearbook which has been shown by the students as well as the staff, has made such a successful one possible. We give to you the 1936 Rocket.

fcCULTY The faculty of Richard Montgomery High School is one of which any school in the country may well be proud. We, the students, who have come to know each one of them intimately, feel ourselves very fortunate in having so fine a teaching staff. Their willingness to help and the understanding manner in which they teach have placed them high in the estimation of every pupil. They have given unsparingly of their time and energy. They have done everything within their power to assist those of us, who, for various reasons, may have fallen behind in our work. Their relationship with the student body has not been superior nor have they looked down upon us in any manner. True, they are not perfect, but all are quick to recognize their short-comings, and try to overcome them. They can take a joke and will laugh at any good one told on themselves. But their classes are by no means disorderly. Studies are approached in a quiet manner, explained clearly and tested fairly. The faculty has gained the highly deserved praise of Mr. Schott and other officials of the County and State Boards of Education. They have done much to improve conditions and to place Richard Montgomery High School in the class of a model school. We, the student body, salute them for the human beings they are.
