Going deeper into the archive



Here's a photo (masked in a truly "retro" '50's TV set) from the 1955 Sheyenne yearbook. This one goes back to grade school days for the Class of 1961 at Valley City High School.

No doubt you'll remember these names from the Valley City High School staff: (L-R) Biology and geography instructor Merle Strandberg and Principal Joel Davy (both seated); Science instructor Earl Kruschwitz and Bandmaster Wendell Tjon (both standing). 

Thanks to Bonnie (Cink) Ness (VCHS '65) for contributing these photos. Her father, Frank Cink, was a math, science and aeronautics instructor at VCHS during the 1940s. Mr. Cink is pictured, along with other instructors, some of whom '61'ers will recognize--particularly our 1960's English teacher--Tina Steinborn--in this 1947 Sheyenne yearbook layout (click on pictures for much larger images):
