THE

SETONIAN SETON HIGH SCHOOL Chandler, Arizona

ELIZABETH ANN SETON , foundress of the Parochial School Sytem in the United States, has given to our high school a name and a tradition of Christian education . Mother Seton was declared Venerable in December, 1959. We hope that Seton High School will soon bear the name of an American saint

IN THE SEVEN YEARS of its existence, Seton High School has realized its ideal of providing Catholic high school educa· for Valley residents. School and Valley have grown together, and today's students can be proud of the progress that eir young Alma Mater has made. Each year has seen new growth and improvements in the physical plant, and the scholastic achievements of more and more students have proved that the size of an institution does not determine its caliber. This year Seton's fourth senior class will graduate from a fully accredited high school, armed with a well-rounded education and a firm background in their faith.

ORIGINS OF SETON HIGH SCHOOL are effectively symbolized on her coat-of-arms. The three crescents were adopted the Seton Hill Arms. The two crosses symbolize the missionary cross of the diocese of Tucson, while the stars are tified with the one appearing on the Arizona flag. The fleur-de-lis represents Mary, our mediator, as expressed by inscription below, "To Jesus through Mary." Reproduced here in black and white, the arms carry the school colors, and gold, blazoned on a base of blue, for Mary, and black, the color of the diocesan arms .

SISTERMARYINNOCENT

TO SISTER MARY INNOCENT, without whom this book would have been impossible, we, the graduating class of 1961 wish to dedicate our annual. Sister's interest in our activities, her generous assistance, and her competent guidance are some of the reasons why we will always remember her with affection.

FATHER JOHN F. McMAHON, our far-sighted and efficient pastor, is responsible f o r making Seton High School a recognized and more beautiful school. Besides contributing his own time and labor in the paint· ing and remodeling of the school, he is also personal· ly interested in the welfare of each and every student. His Christ-like self-sacrifice has earned the respect and gratitude of every student and faculty member.

FATHER McFADDEN , who replaced Father O'Dougherty as pastor of Queen of Peace Parish , and Father Culli· nan of Christ the King Parish , have also contributed greatly to the success of Seton High School. Since almost a third of the student body commutes from these neighboring parishes, their pastors are helping with the tremendous economic burden of our high school. Without their aid, it would have been difficult to complete the numerous improvements around the school . For their whole-hearted cooperation, we wish to thank them sincerely.

SENIORS

AT LAST we've reached our goal! August 29th, 1960, marked the beg inning of our last year at Seton. It was a wonderful experience, being seniors We exerted our authority early over the freshmen, holding initiation the first week of school. Magazine drive, Homecoming Dance, research papers, Republicans vs Democrats debate, senior pictures Then December was here Serious work began on our most important project: the annual. In April everyone worked hard to make our play, Litt le Women , a success; our efforts were well rewarded. Yearbook deadlines, Senior D ance, Junior-Senior Prom, engraved invitations, Ditch Day And now, gra d u ation! We experience mixed emotions : we hate to leave, but we're anxious to go forth and make our mark in the world

Senior Class officers, Dick Althoff, Sharon Roberts, Martha Reese, and Beth leonesio, gaze at the new aluminum cross, their class' gift to the school.

JuniorsAchieueNewDistinction

THIS YEAR the juniors graduated to a new honor: they were now considered upper classmen They could not enjoy as many privileges as the seniors, but at least they were no longer mere sophomores.

As juniors, the class of '62 sponsored a Halloween TWIRP Dance, their play , Love Is Eternal, and the Junior-Senior Prom One of the highlights of the year was a Slave Day, conducted by the junior girls For a dime a day, any boy in the school could make a junior girl run errands for him This event was well received by the boys, but caused the junior girls a considerable amount of trouble.

SophomoresReach SecondRung

ALTHOUGH they are no longer the youngest class in the school, the "sophies" are still considered lower classmen by the juniors and seniors. However, they now have the privilege of having the Student Council treasurer come from their ranks

In their sophomore year, the students gain their first experience in a laboratory science through biology. Once more Caesar crosses the Rubicon, Spanish students traverse the "royal road", and the class acknowledges the truth of 2500 year old geometry theorems. Besides their academic endeavors, the sophomores have a lot of fun, too. This year they sponsored the Valentine Dance.

IT WAS QUITE a change from "mighty eighth-graders" to "lowly" freshmen. The freshmen will probably never forget Initiation Day when they had to recite the senior pledge. Woe to those who didn't know it for to them was given the honor of drinking "Senior Delight". Later in the afternoon, the student body assembled in the home-economics room to watch the freshmen "perform."

Changing classes and the merit system were new experiences for them. They managed well though with three students, Claire Burke, Nancy Bailey, and Ann Meyer, achieving honor roll for their first semester. The future looks bright after their excellent beginning.

THE MATH SUBJECTS, as well as science, are taught by Sister Mary Innocent. Both algebra and practical math are offered to first-year students, and plane geometry is the sophomore course. A second year of algebra is alternated with solid geometry and trigonometry, both of which are one semester courses. The advanced algebra and solid geometry-trigonometry subjects are taken in alternate years by both juniors and seniors.

ReligionIsAn EssentialotSeton

THE OPPORTUNITY to attend daily Mass during school time is a privilege granted to Seton's student body for the purpose of thanking God and asking His help. The students are grateful for the 11:15 Mass, because they recognize the need for God's aid in shouldering their everincreasing responsibilities. In these years of character and personality formation, attending daily Mass helps to channel interests in the right direction.

BY FAR the most important s ject taught at Seton is relig i In it the students not only doctrine but also receive them al training necessary to aid th in being individuals of charac - a credit to themselves, to t families, to their country, and their

THE SETON CHOIR, led by Sister Mary Ronald is organized so that one part of the group sings the 11:00 Mass on one Sunday while the rest of the girls sing the following Sunday. On special occasions like Christmas, Easter, or Forty Hours Procession, the entire group sings. Occasionally they are called upon to sing the school Mass The choir eagerly looks forward to singing at the Graduation Mass and Commencement exercises.

THE MOST IMPORTANT student organization on campus has now completed its fifth year of existence. The primary purpose of the Student Council is to act as a liaison between faculty and students. Each home room rs represented by its class president and a student council representative. Also, each club has a delegate on the council. This year the number of student council members rose to fourteen. Sister Miriam Ellen succeeded Sister Mary Ronald as faculty advisor.

The council, striving to unify the student body and promote school spirit, sponsored a Get Acquainted Dance, a Homecoming Dance, a weiner roast, and a clean-up campaign. The president of the Student Council traditionally conducts morning prayers and flag salute, said in unrson by the entire student body, over the public address system.

Each year the council sends delegates to state functions for student council members. This year our vice-president, Sevie Rodarte, attended a summer workshop at Arrzona State University; Martha Reese and Beth Leonesio represented Seton at the State Student Council Convention in Scottsdale.
