ID Page Page Of This Time, Of This Place In 1960 our class, a group of young, impressionable teenagers, came to Windsor Locks High School ready to start our high school education. Most of us came from Union School and St. Mary’s School, but some of us came as transfer students from other towns. As freshmen we were the babies of WLHS. and the seniors were gods; but this division gave us unity. The common problems of homework and the vigorous movement from room to room necessitated by an unaccustomed bell schedule strengthened this class spirit. During the year we also developed school spirit through our support of school dances and sporting events. We had a chance to display our enthusiasm as our basketball team went to Storrs to complete its season. Although the state championship slipped through our fingers, we were still proud of ourselves and our school. The next year we were no longer the baby class. Our class was academically strong, yet we also contributed to extracurricular activities. One sophomore won the Public Speaking Contest, and another won the Poetry Contest. In athletics a sophomore was on the varsity basketball squad while a number of sophomores played for the junior varsity. In the autumn of 1962 as juniors we suddenly realized that time was slipping away. With our class rings dazzling, we knew that we were upperclassmen; the seniors no longer seemed so formidable. During March those of us who planned to go to college took the College Board Examinations while the rest of us began to wonder about jobs after graduation. More than anything else the Junior Prom made us aware that we were soon to be seniors. Neither our class rings, nor the College Board Examinations, nor the Junior Prom gave us an inkling of the hectic schedule that was to come. During our senior year we organized the magazine sale, the class play, the Senior Ball, and the banquet. Excitement ran high as we captured the Class B State Soccer Crown and as our basketball team went into the tournament. For the first time a WLHS class attended the American Shakespeare Festival at Stratford. During all this activity, however, we still found time for personal thoughts about our aspirations, our aloneness, and our fleeting youth. In our panel and classroom discussions we formed more mature opinions about literature, philosophy, politics, science, and life itself. Our lives having been woven together in this time, we now go our separate ways and think our separate thoughts. Our future is foremost in our minds. We think about the changes to come: a new pattern of life, a new circle of friends, and. for some, a new place to live. More complex problems, new rewards, new disappointments lie ahead. We wonder who will succeed and who will drift, who will realize his dreams and who will place his dreams aside, later to forget them. These thoughts, as bewildering as they seem, underline the feeling of maturity with which we leave WLHS, knowing that even the seniors are not gods and that something remains to be accomplished. With this maturity we see our high school education in its proper perspective and take pride in knowing that we are grad¬ uates of Windsor Locks High School, Class of ’64.
