Dalhart High School: Then and Now

 As I began to think about the many changes that have happened through the years in the local high school, it was so overwhelming that I almost didn’t start writing. I have been a substitute at the high school for several years, so I have some insight on the students involved today. My first classes in DHS as a student were in September, 1960. Yes, back then school started after Labor Day. My dad had died just six weeks prior to school starting and I remember being confused about what to write after “parents.” Back then, only the student went to school and enrolled himself.
