Troutville became a member of the Association of Colleges and Secondary Schools of the Southern States in 1929, and has been accredited by that asso- ciation each succeeding year. Mr. H. L. Horn was the first principal of the newly built high school, he served the years 1925-29 and was succeeded by E. E. Trent who served 1930- 39, C. M. Arehart held the position from 1940 to 1943. H. E. Barron then filled thc position from 1943-49. In 1950 we find Mr. H. H. Huffman beginning his service at Troutville High. Organizations which were begun as early as 1934 were: Library Club, F. F. A., Student Council, 4-H Club, Literary Club and Glee Club. In 1935 our school paper the Warrior came into circulation. Homemaking Classes were begun in our school in 1939, and the Home Economics Club was organized in 1940. Some of these organizations were discontinued after a few years and were reorganized in recent years. These were: Literary Club: which was combined with a Dramatic Club and reorganized in 1949-50, Student Council, also reorganized in 1950, The School Paper started circulating again in 1948- 49, and the 4-H Club was functioning again 1943-44. Some clubs have held their own through the years. They are: The Library Club, the Glee Club, the F. F. A. , and the F. H. A. Clubs. The Monogram, Science, and Poster Clubs were organized for the first time this year. The school has had both girls and boys Basketball teams sincethe l930's. Baseball has also held its own. Mr. J. T. Moore, our athletic director, or- ganized a Football team in our school this year for the first time. A cafeteria was started in our school in 1935. This program was partially supported by the Government. Lunches and knick-knacks are still served at prices in reach of most children. We are looking forward to any improvements in the years to come. We realize that the school will be as good as our instructors and students make it. We shall stand 10070 for greater advancement toward preparing students to take an active part in this ever changing world.
