These lists are accurate with regard to season, but team membership (Red, White, or Blue) is much more problematic. Its been simplified here to on-camera appearence during Roll Call and/or Alma Mater, with some known exceptions. The White team existed only during the first season, being combined with the Blue team towards the end of 1955. Membership of all three teams was probably much more fluid than the static impression given here. To my knowledge, team membership wasn't documented in any way, except indirectly on Call Sheets and the Daily Production reports, where it may be equated with the time cast members were due on the set. However, the kids themselves, and their parents, were very aware of who was on what team.
