Student Life Newly-Equipped Rooms Aid Experience, Skills Enthusiasm in learning — a challenge against common desire carried forth into the halls of Warwick in its first year of use. Encouraging students to participate in ex- tracurricular activities, the faculty fre- quently extended the regular school hours for guidance and sponsoring of clubs and committees. After hours yielded a perfect time for special efforts in teaching stu- dents who did not “catch on” in class. Faith- fully giving up possible leisure to make this year a smashing success, the faculty allowed the student body to gain experience in work- ing together for progressive achievement. Broad understandings between students and teachers functioned in the fulfillment of such events as Homecoming, Farmer Day, and the Senior Prom. As the impact of a newly-built school created mounting problems, the faculty and student body labored together to keep the spirit and tra- dition of Warwick High moving to meet the ordeal of new problems in a new school.

Surrounded by students at the festive Homecoming Dance, Coach Hodges and his wife display their youthful spirit by joining in the fun. Parading down the highway with a windblown carwash sign, barefooted Sandi Brooks, Debby Bruner, and Debbie Gilbert attempt to increase business for their Keyette project. A combination of anxiety, confusion, and curiosity create a stir of excitement on orientation as big brothers and big sisters attempt to guide “Mice” through the new halls of Warwick.
