The membership now numbers about three hundred former graduates of the school. The Association meets three times a yearg at a luncheon in the fallg a breakfast at Christmas time to which the senior class is invitedg and a final meeting in the spring. The purpose of the organization, in addition to renewing friendships made during the school years, is to perpetuate the interests of the school and to help it in any way possible. In order to carry out this purpose, the Alumnae Association has sponsored a variety of projects with the dual effect of attracting former students and friends to the school and providing substantial funds for the furtherance of programs undertaken for the benefit of the school. -5- Upper School fparent-Jeacher Assn.

The Council of this organization, which is the management group of Parent-Teacher Association activities, consists of active committee chairmen, co-chairmen and officers. The twenty-seven interested mothers who form this council give their time and effort to make the P.-T.A. a cooperative body in school activities. A A The P.-T.A. council committees play an important role in the planning of class mixers and teas, in cooperating with the Social Service Board in its Thanksgiving and Christmas aid to needy families and with the Library Board in carrying out the annual Book Fair, in representation with other schools in the Social Conduct Council, and in continuing the high enrollment of the school. Father-Daughter dinners and College Guidance Conferences for parents help parents and teachers to understand each other better through the functions of the Parent-Teacher Association. ...6- H16 an W0 Scl the Fo toc rl, the nation. :iation rested Jdy in zas, in es and xols in ughter 1 each fower School 53. 7.

Cozad Secretary Mrs. Raymond C. O,Dell Treasurer Mrs. R. Hugh Uhlmann The Parent-Teachers Association held four meetings during the school year, besides several Council meetings. The first was an evening meeting for both mothers and fathers in October. Mrs. Green gave an excellent talk on the Philosophy of Education at Sunset Hill, followed by an explanation of the work of the year as outlined by the individual teachers in their own classrooms. The second Parent-Teachers meeting in November was a combined one of the Upper and Lower Schools. After several very interesting skits by the Upper School classes, the meeting adjourned to the hall of the Mellon building to enjoy the display of the Book Fair. The third meeting was held late in February. This time the mothers were entertained by Dr. Forman, an eminent psychiatrist, who spoke on the uljroblenus of the Growing Child.,7 At the final meeting of the Parent-Teacher Association in May, the annual election of officers took place. I -7- School .History Main Building The year 1913 saw the founding of a new school, a venture .in progressnte -education. Through the untiring efforts of Mrs. Hugh Ward fnow Mrs. A. Ross Hlllj, Mrs. William F. Patton, Mrs. ,lustin D. Bowersock, and a few of their friends, the dream of a school designed to keep pace with rising trends of education became a reality. They had visited some of the experimental schools in Chicago and New York and patterned their school on the same general principles. The name Sunset Hill was given the school b-y Mrs. Hill, who named it in memory of a love-ly portion of the campus of Vassar College -still called Sunset Hill. For the first few years, classes were held in Mrs. Hill's home on Fifty-Second Street with Julia Wood as principal. It is hard for us to- day to realize the great amount of responsibility which rested on the founders in those early years. It was under their competent guidance that the school became firmly established. The next building to accomodate the grow- ing school was a house on Fifty-Seventh Street, formerly occupied by the boys' Country Day School. It was to this location that Helen Eric- son came as principal. Through her familiarity withi' the new philosophy and techniques of education, as a result of her association with Col. Francis Parker, she inspired the school to greater heights and originated many of the spe- cial observances which have become well-loved traditions. Among these are Vespers, Revels, and May Day. -g.. Dining Room at a scl Tl UP ial da Ed plz me ad vo. to Nc of Wli Hal ln 1919, the rapid expansion of the institution necessitated another move to our present location at Fifty-First and Wornall Road. At this time the Sunset Hill School Association was organized as a non-profit corporation with a Board of Trustees to take over the business management of the school. The present main building and primary school building comprised the original facilities. The next year the dining room building was constructed to be used also as our auditorium. Through the years, Sunset Hill has been very fortunate in having many generous gifts bestowed upon it. The year 1926 brought two wonderful additions to the campus: the gymnasium, a memor- ial to Alfred Tyler Hemingway, given by Mrs. Hemingway fnow Mrs. Clarence Shepardl and her daughter .lane fnow Mrs. George L. Gordonlz and the Mary Gary hockey field given by Mrs. Edward Harrison fformerly Mary Garyl. Another thoughtful gift, Marianne Terrace, the paved playground for the nursery school, was made in 1928 by Marianne Platt Quarles. ln 1931, Miss Ericson was succeeded as head mistress by Mary Chorn Hazard who had been a member of the faculty for eight years. During her administration the middle school building was added in 1936 as a result of an initial gift by Mr. and Mrs. ,lay V. Holmes, which inspired further voluntary contributions from school patrons. The library in the middle school is a fitting memorial to Julia Wood. The present headmistress of the school, Mrs. Orville C. Green, Jr., came to us in 1939 from the North Shore Country Day School in Winnetka, Illinois, where she was Dean of Girls and teacher of Latin and History. Under her leadership Sunset Hill has grown to its present high enrollment with an outstanding reputation as a college preparatory school. Mrs. Green has been active in the national organizations of Independent Schools. v l L 4 A Lower School I 9 M1 f 2'7yi, ff?

The Mellon Building is the latest addition to the campus. A start had been made on a fund for a science building, when Paul Mellon offer- , ' 1 ed to erect such a building in memory of his wife, Mary Conover Mellon, a graduate of the class of 1921. This building houses ultra-mod- ern equipment to provide for the expansion in teaching science, home economics and music, and in visual education. Many less pretentious gifts such as the flagpole, fine trees, stage cur- tains, drinking fountains, movie projector, im- proved lighting, class bells and a public address system are being used and appreciated today. Thus from modest beginnings, Sunset Hill has developed into a thriving school which con- tinues to live up to the standards of its fore- sighted founders.

The duties of the Student Council include supervising study halls and approving the list of girls for Honor' Study Hall. One representative from each class, Eighth Grade through Twelfth Grade, chosen by their respective-class, is a member of the council. Representatives must be in Honor Study Hall and serve for one semester. The officers of the Student Council are elected by the whole high school for one school year. Throughout the year, the Student Council sponsors several paper sales. With the money raised by these sales, the Council extends aid to needy children in Europe. In 194-9 the school, through the Student Council, adopted Maria ,lessen of Holland. Later, a Greek boy, Evangelos Plavagos, was added and this year Lucia Protynick, a Polish DP child in western Germany, began to receive the help no longer needed by Maria. The aid these children obtain consists of money and monthly clothing parcels and also a Christmas package from Sunset Hill students. -40- Student Gouncil Lower School Seated on floor, left to riglzt: Wilson, Nicholsg Sclwpfling Snyder: Knipmeyerg Birminghamg Moore.

The A. A. has many functions combining social and athletic affairs. The fall and spring dances, looked forward to by all, are both arranged through the Athletic Association, as are the hockey and basketball play-days with Barstow and the intramural tennis, ping pong, and badminton tournaments. The A. A. provides entertainment for the Student Council picnic and has a great part in organizing events for Field Day. One of the most exciting occasions is the annual A. A. Luncheon at the end of the school year at which the athletic awards for the year are presented. The success of activities sponsored by the Athletic Association is due to the enthusiasm and coop- eration of all the girls with the members of the A. A. board.

The board has a president from the senior class elected annually by the entire upper school student body and faculty. There are two representatives from each high school class and the eighth grade on the board. The Social Service Board sponsors all the charity drives during the year and works for the Red Cross, the Needlework Guild, and other similar organizations. In addition, the Board manages certain all-high school projects. The adoption of families at Thanksgiving and at Christmas time are two of these. Each upper-school class assumes the responsibility for providing one or more families with food on both occasions, and at Christmas with clothes and gifts. Another Christmas project is the dressing of dolls for the Salvation Army. All girls in the upper school participate in this activity, the final result of which is a display of beautifully dressed dolls before they are packed for distribution by the Salvation Army. The Social Service Board gives at least one party a year for orphaned or underprivileged children. In addition to the work of the Social Service Board, the Social Service Activity offers an opportunity to girls for regular direct service to various community projects. -43- Library Boar Back row, left to right: Montgomeryg Nichols, C.g Bentong Taylor.

The book, named the Sundial, was the result of the combined efforts of all high school classes, with supervision of the various staffs by members of the Senior Class. Carolyn Elliott, as Editor-in-Chief, and Judy Johnson, as Business Manager, coordinated the efforts of all the staffs, composed of representatives from each class. Mr. Joseph de Peyster acted as adviser in matters of finance and production, while Mrs. D. C. Weary edited literary material.

WW. --fi fix fiffrw tieomeg Sdwmeader Book Hair Each year the Library Board gives a Book Fair. This year the Fair took place in November, at the time of a Parent-Teacher Association meeting. A skit, representing something being currently studied in English classes, was given by each of the classes in the Upper School. The Eighth Grade did a scene from Little Women. Ninth Graders relived the famous Ballad of Barbara Ellen. A Tale of Two Cities was presented by the Tenth Grade, while Eleventh Grade gave part of Ghauceris Canterbury T ales. Tom Sawyer was the choice of the Twelfth Grade for their skit. Books were on display all day in the Mellon Building. This extensive exhibit was arranged through the courtesy and cooperation of the Bennett Schneider Book Store. The exhibits were arranged by classes so that all the books recommended by a teacher for her class could be seen together. All groups in the school, including pre-school, participate in this annual event. The Fair provides browsing enjoy- ment for everyone and gives both girls and their relatives or friends an opportunity to select suitable books for Christmas giving. Uespers P The Angel comes to Mary Among the oldest traditions at Sunset Hill is the Christmas Vesper program. This service, presented a week before Christmas vacation, is participated in by all classes above the Fourth Grade. Each year the junior class presents a play. The plays vary in style from year to year, but they always contain the original Christmas story of the Christ-child's birth. The upper and lower school form two separate choruses to provide musical background for the service. The Christmas music of many countries is performed as part of Vespers. At the beginning of the service, both choruses enter in a processional singing Acieste Fidelis. One of the high points of the service is the performance of the a cappella choir. This group always has a beautiful and often difficult selection to sing. Vespers ends with a recessional of all the singers. The spirit of the Vesper service is a serious, reverent attitude toward the inspiration which underlies the festivities of the coming Christmas season. -54- 1 3 s i i Ulevels uliievelsw, an annual festivity of Sunset Hill, was started in 1916 and has continued an un- interrupted observance since then. The idea on which '4Revels,7 was based was Christmas at a medieval manor house. During the Christmas season long ago, everyone shared in the merry- makingg so now in the celebration at Sunset Hill, the faculty through the youngest child in the school dress in costume and join in the fun. The festivities begin with the HlVlaster of Revelsw, dressed as a jester, leading the as- sembled group in singing old Christmas carols. To the strain of HCome bring with a noise ye merry, merry boys, the yule log to the firingf, the yule log is dragged in and lighted with a piece of the previous yearls log. lt has become the custom, through the years, for the seventh grade to bring in the logg and for the smallest child in the First Grade to ride on it. After the yule log has been lit, the story-tellers present themselves. According to the medieval custom, y they tell stories for the amusement of the guests ww. so in return for Warmth and food. Next, the group adjourns to the gymnasium. Before the grand march, the wassail bowl is passed for the people who help around the school during the year. -Then partners file around the gym, each receiving a cookie, into one of which has been baked a large lima bean. The girl who receives the bean is 4'King of Revelsw and she usually chooses her partner to reign as Queen. With the King and ,Queen properly crowned, games are then played for the amusement of all. Games such as: MFarmer in the Dell , MLooby Loun, and HPunchinello,', closely resemble the old sing- ing games of medieval days. A skit, dealing with something of a Christmas nature, is given by the seniors, concluding the program in the gymnasium. After the entertainment, a banquet is held in the dining room, Where tradition is again observed. The second year Latin class carries a papier-mache boarls head on a platter around the room singing the old Latin carol, '4The Boaris Head in Hand Bear l, Bedecked with Bay and Rosemaryw. Revels con- cludes after the banquet and the merry-makers adjourn to their homes for the Christmas holidays. Participation in HRevels,' increases an appreciation of the true Christmas spirit because it makes us feel close to Christmas observances of many centuries ago in another country. -- 56- 1 Left Center Right Top row: Finale of Senior Skit.

Since shortly after the founding of the QUEEN school, May Day has taken place annually following English tradition. A queen and her court, elected by the faculty and student body, preside over this gala affair. Each class does an individual dance and the whole school takes part in the processional and finale. The dances are folk dances and the winding of a decorated May Pole serves as a climax to their performance. Because each girl wears a brightly colored old fashioned dress and spring flowers are used extensively as decorations, May Day is always Mary McCollum a thrilling and most colorful spectacle. b Parsonsg Gillespieg Scottg Mitchell.

To give all the players a f longer and better chance to participate actively in the games, each Jean Coates, Captain team was divided into four subteams. The season proved to be rather exciting.

The final team standings were: Juniors, triumphant in first place, Senior and Sophomores, tying for second place, Freshman, last but by no means least. To show their true skill, the Juniors challenged the rest of the high school to form an all-star varsity team to play a post-season exhibition game. This all-star team also met defeat at the hands of the conquering Juniors, proving their claim to the first place among class teams. Keep them out, Betty! Get the ball, Carol! - Marilyn after the ball.. 4 -68 .- Glass Basketball Again the Juniors surpassed the rest of the high school classes and this time in basketball. They did not lose or tie a single game, and as a reward they Won the Basket- ball Cup.

Sunset Won with a score of 7-1. The next week a Sunset team consisting of our most adept Junior and Senior class players met the Barstow team on their field. Their large field was a good experience for our players, who won with the score of 3-0. To add to the fun of it all, three cheerleaders, Nancy Moore, Penny Lane, and Sally Scott, were chosen to keep us all in highest spirits and encourage our teams to victory.
