DEVELOPING a sound body, the second characteristic of the learning process, is not neglected at VHS. Each student must take courses in physical education up to the twelfth grade. The equipment used is most recent and meets regulation standards. In addition to physical education, a variety of other athletic activities is offered for both boys and girls. By participating in these activities, Village High students learn teamwork and a sense of healthy competition in addition to maintaining physically-fit temples of learning. The third aspect of education, social and emotional adjustment, is just as significant as those points previously covered. For it is through the diversity of clubs and organizations, such as those afforded at St. Anthony Village High School, that cooperation with our fellow man is learned. It is through the many social events such as dances that we learn what is acceptable behavior according to society. Through the sponsoring of a successful variety show, for example, that we ran feel a sense of true accomplishment. Because of the availability of opportunities in dramatics, writing, and music at VHS, we are able to satisfy our creative desires. These arc just a few of the social and emotional benefits to be had by partaking in extracurricular activities and social events. If a student has received adequate training in all phases of his environment, and if society has succeeded in getting life’s ideals across to him, he should then be prepared to make a satisfactory adjustment to daily living and become a productive member of society. Such is the aim of St. Anthony Village High School. BELOW: Eighty per cent of VHS boys participate in one kind of sport or another, one of which is football. ABOVE: To raise funds for the Prom, juniors sponsored the Senior-Faculty game which was won by the latter. Pictured is a skit that took place during the half-time intermission.
