20 E p ay H In Good En lishf roper use of the English language is essen- tial in everyday life. job competition is very keen, and the employeris decision often rests upon the applicants ability to say it in good English? Four years of English are required for all students. Freshman English deals primarily with basic grammar, classical literature, tech- niques of speech delivery and reading im- provement. Sophomore English is a broader and fuller course. Students encounter the basic forms of literature such as the short story and the novel. The junior English student becomes ac- quainted with American literature. Panel dis- cussions and research papers are a very impor- tant part of this course because they encour- age the student to delve deeper into the history and use of the English language. Entering the world of English literature, the senior receives a thorough review of English grammar in preparation for college. Advanced English is offered to all freshman, sophomores, juniors, and seniors who have pre- viously received excellent grades in English and have a teacher's recommendation. A more stringent course is offered to advanced stu- dents in hopes of inspiring the more gifted English pupil. THOMAS C.
