Co-Senior Sponsor, Evening School Principal English Department Every student is reguired to take three years of En- glish. Three years in a dition to those years already spent m the subject might seem repetitious, however the POT- POURRI of the English curriculum affords variety that appeals to all students. Included in the curriculum are the study of grammar, punctuation, spelling, vocabulary, and the mechanics of writing, training in written and oral composition of all typesg and the study of all types of litera- ture for the purpose of analysis, appreciation, and enrich- ment.

Mathematics Department The Mathematics Department has been changing its curriculum to adjust to changing demands. Since a great- er percentage of students plan to go to college, a greater emphasis has been placed on courses entrance require- ments and to be successful in college. The most noticeable changes in mathematics curric- ulum are the deletion of a course in Solid Geometry and the addition of a course in Calculus. The more important ideas of solid geometry are being incorporated into a course with plane geometry to elfect a saving in time. The calculus course is oifered to able Mathematic stu- dents to give them a good foundation for college calculus and, in some instances, to enable them to secure ad- vanced standing in college mathematics. Both changes were made to strengthen the curriculum. Changes, less apparent, are being made within other courses. These are changes in methods of presentation, in emphasis, and is being added to facilitate and improve presentation of new concepts. Such improvements are more routine, but combined with the more visible changes, they do add to the general excellence of the mathematics program.
