✓ Schooltitiities AS WE SEE IT ----0---- Sheridan high school, being one of the larger schools of Wyoming, has a large field for activities outside the classroom. Sports, plays, clubs, and social functions all help make the school work seem easier and more interesting. One may get a great deal of practical experience in any of the chosen fields. —Tom Cotton. ----o---- High school activities give the student an opportunity to know his classmates, to cooperate with others, to enjoy high school life more fully, and to develop a well rounded, capable personality. The student gains from the extra-curricular activities ideas of how to use his recreational time in the future, for the betterment of himself and others. —Geraldine Howard. ■---o---- Extra-curricular activities balance the academic program, adding flavor and interest to the student’s high school career. In addition, they give the student valuable training that is not otherwise available in school. —Fred Diener. ■---o----- One of the most worthwhile things on the extra-curricular list of a high school is the sports program. Athletics develops courage, determination, cooperation, loyalty, and unselfishness—qualities that enable the individual to face the obstacles of life without flinching. Athletics makes one more than just a man; it makes him a “real man.” —Bill Madden. ----o----- Certainly those activities which entail responsibility and foster leadership are as important in the liberal education of a student as anything he can obtain in school. Any of the dozens of positions that can be held by a student train him to work with others, accept responsibility, attend to details—all prime requisites for a happy, successful, and useful life. —Evagene Davis.
