Chris is giving a report in Miss McHenry ' s English class on his research theme. Seniors Continue Studies for Future The fact that you were a Senior did not dim the necessity of study. It was essential that we maintain our grades to fulfill our amjji- tion — a high school diploma. From fourth year English to chemistry to industrial arts — we all did our best to raise our averages and our class ratings. Our teachers were only too glad to help us master our more difficult problems, and we were grateful for their help when the fateful day for grades arrived. For some this meant the last of their formal edu- cation — for others it was only the beginning of a trained profession. Whichever the case, we will always remember our final classes while we were Seniors. Miss Bruner and Miss Horslnian.

The Junior Prom, our Baccalaureate and finally, graduation exercises all seemed like a dream come true. We had all tried our best to make our activities the best, most exciting ever — and we succeeded. The struggle was over; but it was worth it. We stood on the threshold of our careers, armed with our diplomas and ready for anything, come what may. The ria— of ' 57 was led hy president Bill Nolting

Having as its theme a garden party, the seniors made their last contribution to S.H.S. by participation in Class Day. Prophecies and wills were read at this time and listening to the history of the seniors made some of us wish we could go back and relive four won.- derful years at S.H.S. The presentation of the key was made by senior class president Bill Nolting to junior class president J. R. Hudson. 17
