Assemblies

The Black and Gold 1975

Human Creativity at Work

 Human Creativity at work was what an assembly was all about. Expanding the ever changing schedule during the school week, Friday morning assemblies enriched an individual's school life at McKinley.

 Well planned and carefully coordinated, each assembly was a delightful and fun way to spend time out of class.

  As with each new school year, the Welcome Assembly communicated friendliness and warm aloha for all  McKinleyites. A fashion show was produced by the Penney's Fashion Board from Ala Moana. Three alumni and two seniors here at McKinley (some of the board members) made this presentation all the more interesting. The search for Miss McKinley Carnival Queen brought many students to the auditorium--wondering who, with great excitement, would be chosen to reign through the school year. MTG sponsored assemblies that gave students and teachers a sneak preview to their upcoming productions. McKinley's harmoniously talented choir performed musical selections at a Christmas assembly. After many rehearsals, a Pops Concert added spice to the assemblies as the music reflected hard work and superior achievement.

 Together with the Taikas, the ROTC Drill Team showed their precision and alertness during a demonstration in the gym. Professional entertainer Rod Young, class of 1970, drew a capacity crowd on Black and Gold Day.

 Class plays exposed the talents and vitality hidden in each individual, humorously and unforgettably entertaining all.
