St. Mary's Schools and Church, Storm Lake, Iowa (in winter)
The small Catholic parochial school I attended from Kindergarten and
graduated high school. A small school occupying a little more than half a
city block with elementary and high school class rooms in adjoining
buildings. The high school being in the distance on the left, elementary
in middle. While I was there, average class size was between 25 and 30
students per grade level, my graduating class was one of the smallest at
the time, 16 students. This doesn't make for much diversity, but it does
make for a closer, more family like environment, you know almost everyone.
At St. Mary's I was active in many things, although not much of a
jock, I did golf a couple years. My main interests lied in the fine arts,
was involved with the band for a short time, then mostly choir and show
choir, as well as speech and drama. Tried acting for a couple shows but
found my place better behind the scenes. |
