It is a community of administrators, teachers, and students who wish to know more about man, society, the world of nature, and the things of the spirit. In addition to satisfying graduation requirements in social studies, English, science, mathematics, guidance, health, and physical education or ROTC, each student is encouraged by his counselors and homeroom teachers to elect subjects that will prepare him for life. Academic studies provide sound training for college, and practical arts courses in commerce, home economics, and industrial and vocational education prepare for careers in the business, homemaking, and tech- nical fields. To round out his training, he may pursue inter- ests in art or music. All these, plus opportunities to participate in athletics, publications, speech, dramatics, library, and clubs, make West a school where excitement prevails-excitement for the present and for the future.
