Who's who in the Junior Class .... CHE Eleventh Grade Citizenship Education Class is busily filling out questionnaire sheets about their fellow classmates to determine who among them are the best citizens. The selections are based upon good sportsmanship, courtesy, intelligence, and class participation. Those chosen on this basis were: Sheila Gerig, Nancy Villecco, James Clum, and Markley Opdyke. They go to Syracuse University where they participate in a number of discussion groups. Those who are selected as the outstanding citizens compete for scholarships. This is one of the extra activities of the class, but in regular class they study ancient civilizations, their specific ways of life and their contributions to modern-day world.
