 SHOULD YOU GO The academic pupil finds that his preparation includes both classical and scientific courses. Four years of English, three years of history, two years of mathematics and a language, and one year of science, plus any electives he may choose, make up the sixteen major units necessary for graduation credit. Not only is mental fitness sought, but physical fitness also. Therefore, four years of physical education and health are scheduled. It is unusual to find public speaking a required subject in high schools, but three years of it are included in Chester's academic curriculum. Through this medium many pupils acquire poise, self-confidence, and good speaking habits. Students learn by listening as well as by doing. Throughout the year, a number of vocational guidance conferences are held to aid boys and girls in choosing the right profession for their particular abilities.
