 • j •' Si vA,, . '• , . Fine Arts Bexley high school offers classes in art, instrumental music, and chorus work. The art depart- ment has on its list for future improvements, smaller classes, the use of printing equipment, the possible inclusion of a course in the history of art, and the division of art classes into groups such as cartooning or oils. The department aims to teach underclassmen the primary principles and upperclassmen more advanced work. The high school instrumental program is featured by a 95-piece band which is regarded as one of the best in the state. The retiring conductor, Mr. Jordan, has tried to instill a professional standard of achievement in order to make musical education truly worthwhile and also to make it a dignified and necessary part of school life. That every student who can carry a tune should have the opportunity to sing in a chorus if he wishes is the opinion of the vocal music department. The choruses will be largely elective groups while the choir will be highly selective. A greater study of the fine arts and a more active part in them helps students grow' not only in knowledge but also in a genuine appreciation of artistic endeavor. Office and Library Staff To furnish a literary background and to serve as a source of reference material for the stu- dents, our school library has adopted modern methods of organization. Constantly new' books and magazines are being added to keep the volumes practical and up to date. The library has both fact and fictional material and has maintained its high standard of quality and efficient service throughout the year. Behind the scenes of formal school procedure is the staff of the superintendent's and prin- cipal's offices. These young women must keep track of the ever-changing students’ schedules; they must mimeograph tests for the twenty-odd teachers, type stencils, act as secretaries to the superintendent and principal, and answer a raft of questions from both faculty and students. It is thanks to their patient understanding of students’ problems that school life passes smoothly and that the various school functions are carried out efficiently.
