CURRICULUM COURSES OFFERED Ravenna High School offers its students many diversified and in- teresting courses. These may be taken under three general headings. namely: college preparatory, commercial, and general. One must take three years of English and two years of history in order to graduate, and one must have at least two majors and three minors with a total of seventeen credits. EXTRA ACTIVITIES OBTAINABLE Several years ago, extra curricular activities were introduced into the high school. Memberships to these may be obtained by try-outs, elections to to some simply for the asking. The requirements for these are many, being classified as to the type of activity. There are four honorary societies in the school, these being the Hi-Y, Gamma Beta, National Honor Society, and National Forensic League. It is most difficult to gain membership into the latter two. Among the activities are the following: orchestra., band, glee clubs, mixed chorus, news staff, literary, senate, are, and dramatic clubs. INCREASE IN GRADUATES In order to show the growth and development of Ravenna High School, there is no better Way than to compare the first graduating class with the present one. In 1862, a class of two was graduated from Ravenna High School. This year a total of seventy-five students will leave the portals of their Alma Mater. The largest class was the group graduating in 1927 with eighty members. The total number of students graduated from Ravenna High, not counting the class of '31, is 1410. CURRICULUM REVISION Perhaps one of the least known and yet one of the most comprehensive and valuable phases of the Ravenna. School adminstrative program is the work in curr'culum revision. Superintendent O. E. Pore is directing the study of the high school subjects and Miss Mildred Patton is devoting her time to the im- provement of grade school methods and ob- jectves. Every teacher in the system is en- deavoring to make her assignments more pur- poseful and her class room technique more scientific. It is confidently expected that this special stress on the aims and methods .of in- struction will enable the class rooms of this city Miss PATTON to apply most that is good in modern education. rw!-I1y,g X RR 5 ER W? as

Who are we to judge each other? Do we always pass the test? Should we criticize another Till we've far surpassed the rest? If in life we've been the winner, If our character is high, Then there's time to tell the sinner What niistakes he's made, and Why. Eleanor Greene
