The relationship between the teacher and the student is usually one of good will and understanding because it is an important part of the teachers’ work to become acquainted with each member of his class, to understand his students, and to assist them in all ways. W.H.S. teachers are friends. They offer us valuable advice, sympathize with us when we are in difficulties and must face perplexing prob- lems. They encourage us in our ambition and influence us to strive for success. Many of them act as sponsors of organizations and classes, willingly devoting their time and energy to help further friendship and cooperation among the students. STATE BANK OF WHITING

Whiting High’s first graduating class in 1900 consisted of five students. This honored quintet had transferred in 1898 from East Chicago High to the brick building on Oliver Street that housed Whiting’s first high school. The faculty of three strove to give their students the education they desired, even with the limited amount of courses to choose from. Readin’, ’ritin’, and ’rithmctic were the basis of every education.
