St Alphonsus High School - Rocket Yearbook (St Louis, MO)

Page 9 text:

'This was your year' at St. Alphonsus Rock High School with emphasis on 'joy in the student vocation.' The '59 ROCKET follows a seasonal theme. It was logical to place the freshman class in the fall section. Enrolling freshmen bring new blood to vitalize the classroom and the extra-curricular program. Perhaps the placement of the senior class in the winter division was somewhat arbitrary. Their activities were spread quite equally throughout the year, however, and it was felt that a record of the classes should be carried through all the seasons. The juniors are traditionally busy in the spring of the year with the prom, junior-senior luncheon, and the preparation for the crowning of the loveliest Mother, the loveliest month. The sophomores are in accord with the poet 'and what is so rare as a day in June?' Summer and school is out. But there are many who will nominate the sixth month as their favorite of the twelve. This is the beginning of a new season: this is the time of fulfillment. The yearbook staff is deeply grateful to Mr. Albert Bohm, General Manager of Rembrandt Studios, Inc., for the excellent seasonal pictures,
