To the Board of Education A ship w~thout a captain, or a horse without
a rider i-;; like a sehool without proper coopera· tion from a school board. The captain steers' his ship to port, and the rider reigns his hor'SIC to the prst, so, has the school board of Frontenac High School pulled together to achieve for our school system one of the highest standards (Jf education for the youth of our little city. I cannot s'art to enumerate the many great things accompl!shed becau~e space is limited and without giving their wcrk full recognition would be doing them an injustice. So, as editor and member of the senicr class, and in behalf of the senior class I wish to thank you for the opportunity you have given us. We will always cherish the happy days in F. H. S. and may the seniors of next and following years realize what you have done for them.

OUR BUILDING .....
How old is our School? Few students in the present school system
would know the answer to this question. But if the question was asked
to their parents many would say "Why I can remember Frontenac High
School beginning in a basement back in 1913." In fact Frontenac was
known as the basement school of Kansas. Since HH3 the school has been
on the accredited lis t of high schools in Kansas.
Twenty-seven years ago th!s May, Frontenac High School graduated
the fir"t senior class. Two students were in that class. They were Miss
Margaret Monahan and Miss Essie Jones. The graduation was held in old
Miners Hall, while six hundred bouquets of roses decorated the stage.
Each year the enrollment of the school has grown. Additions were made
to the building and new subjects were offered.
The school year of 1924-25 was a dark year in the school h!stury.
During that period the school burned down and it was necessary for stu
dents to attend classes in different buildings in the town. In this way
the students of Frontenac's City Schools received their education dur
ing the school year 1925-26. The 1926 class was the first to graduate from
the new .high school. Washington school now has an enrollment of
384 students from the first grade through senior high sehool.
Our school is an institution that is bringing prepardness to its mem·
ber students for later life, whieh all of us must faee.
HOME ECONOMICS COTTAGE
Vocational Homemaking is offered at the Homemaking Cottage dur
ing eleven months of the year. A nine week summer course supplements
the homemaking offered during the school year to ninth and tenth grade girls.
Foods and nutrition. elothing and text!les, home management. family
relationship, ehild eare and developJtr!!nt, health and hygiene, grooming,
related art, and related seienee are studied.

The Senior Cia ·· of 1911 have
been pioneering for twelve years to
prepare themselves for another long
journey of pioneering to seek a new
world. Not a world of exploration,
but a world of preparation. So far
this Class has been very successful.
They have worked very hard and
have never complained. Their work
has been a great pleasure. They have
met man)'' hard ·hips. but these have
been oyercome by determination.
The members of the faculty of
Frontenac High School expre ses
deeply the loss of these fine Senior ·
not because of them as a cla..~s. but
becau.'le of the spirit that they have
displayed in pioneering new ideas to
our school system in the last tweh·e
years. 'l'imes have changed, but the
Seniors have not. They are just a
group of young women and men ho
are going out Into the orld to
shoulder many more of pion·
eeriq. Th time aot Ia ool ltat

The Junior Class of Fron1enae High School will be the successor to
the fine Senior Class of 1941, and wi II try and gain the heights that this
class has attained.
The Juniors have been world ng over a period of eleven years, and so
far have found this very interesting. Times have cha nged since this
group entered school but they have b een working very har d in order to
keep up with the time.
This Year they will entertain their friends the Seniors at an e)abo
rate banquet to be given in their honor.
The Juniors are not altogether watching the Seniors, for they also
spend some of their time aiding the under-classmen who need a great deal
of comfort during the rule of any senior class. Louis H<~Nmstreit, their
elass-preoictent has made a fine leader, and many aetivttJ.., have been

The Freshman class has enjoyed this year very much. The first sem-
ester their time was taken up by at tending two line parties. There was
chosen a carnival king and queen. The king was Ernest Hebenstreit and
the queen was Imogene Milton.
The second semester was taken up with a line party.
The girls of the class attended a Home Economics Convention in Kan-
sas City, Kansas.
There were five representatives from the freshman class who took
in the scholarship contest at the Kan -;as State Teachers College at Pitts-
burg, l ' ansas. They were Audrey Le.:oY, Addie Lee Jones, Isabel Saia,
'Ibcresa Scavezze, and Howard Hrand.
\Ve have come to the conclusion that the ·Freshman Class has taken
an active part in all activities of lhe school.
We sincerely hope that they will continue their good work in all the
years yet to come.
