School Schedule Varied By Frequent Assemblies At East the student may gain knowledge not only from textbooks but also from the many opportunities which school activities offer. A considerable part of a student's edu– cation may include cultural and social expe– rience. One of the sources of this experience is the variety of assemblies presented at East. Many musical assemblies have been presented by the school bands, orchestras, choruses and outside organizations including the Lowry Air Force band and the Denver Symphony orches– tra. Dancing, too, has been presented by the Modern Dance classes and by dancers from Chile. Pep assemblies have offered students a chance to see friends and to show school spirit. The Student council has been respon– sible for several assemblies. Its presentation of the Code of Conduct was an inspiring expe– rience for many. In the Howdy day assembly the Council reviewed several ports of school life. Assemblies "for the introduction of candi– dates for office and inauguration of officers were also given by the council. Other assem– blies have presented athletic and academic awards, educational movies, and guest speakers. Our frequent assemblies have been an im– portant part of a well-rounded school program. hring the Angelus aae ly, these girls, dressed in flapper costumes, do the Charleston os port of a skit por– traying the Angelus as it would hove been in 1920. 77
