The "Class History" states that eighteen students 'arose from eighth grade' to Freshmen in 1941.  Those students were: Evelyn Barker, Robert Bauer, Margaret DeLarm, Arlene Dosland, Arla Mae Farwell, Carroll Flathers, Shirley Mae Grindrod, Donald Mattke, Betty Lou McClimon, Kenneth Simmons, George Singleman, Shirlie Stender and Joyce Stier.  Six more students joined them that year: Ruth Hansen, Virgil Jacobsen, Ruth Chase, Doris Galloway, Phyllis Schrader and Leonard Dunlavey.

In the Sophomore year of 1942 they lost six members:

Robert Bauer who is farming for his father.
Margaret DeLarm is married and living in Clinton.
Carroll Flathers works on his fathers farm.
Betty Lou McClimon will graduate from St. Mary's in Clinton.
George Singleman is working on his fathers farm.

Toward the latter part of the year Earl Galloway joined the class.

During their Junior year of 1943 they lost four members:

Arla Mae Farwell will graduate at Goose Lake.
Earl Galloway is going to graduate from Elwood.
Joyce Stier will graduate from Calamus.
Ruth Hansen is going to graduate from Grand Mound.

Their Senior year held only nine classmates.  Kenneth Simmons left and was inducted into the Army.
