Sentor Class History 1939-1951. A long period of work, hope, and joy is enclosed in these dates. We came to school our first time in the fall of ‘38. Wewere, at first, a bit dismayed at this new life away from home, but after a few weeks we became accustomed to school. After we worked hard for seven long years, witha few falling behind, we found ourselves in our last year before high school, the eighth grade. It was with both fear and joy that we mounted the stage in ‘47 to receive our Certificates of Promotion to high school. Many were anxious while others had a fear in their minds of what lay ahead. But they could not turn down the thought of some day being a senior. We were now in high school! There were thirty-eight in the Freshman Class. After trying our hardest we liked this new method of learning and filled our places in high school well. It was during this period that our interest became aroused in the high school activities and we took part in many of them. The Freshman and Sophomore years passed and now that we were Juniors we felt sure of ourselves! The long years seemed far behind. We had several important events to look forward to. First came our Junior-Senior banquet when we made our first debut into society. It was a big success. Next came yy our Junior play, ‘Gangway for Ghosts, ’ ’ which we gave at two different dates. We're still wondering if that headless ghost ever found it’s body! Now it is 1951, we are seniors, and graduation is in sight. Twenty-nine have reached the goal. These years together have been happy ones. There are memories of friendships dear to our hearts and many bonds that can never be broken. We have a sense of pride about us, but we feel that we owe our credit to someone other than ourselves. To our parents-to our principal-and to our If we have not said it for you to hear, rest as- teachers we say ‘‘thank you sured that we shall never forget what you have given us. Now, with faith in what the future may bring, we know that we are off to a good start. For those who are about to turn back; don’t; have courage: the reward is worth the effort.
