Through music and loreign languages. students achieved inherited concepts. 'l'he goal ol the French and Spanish classes was not only to learn vocabulary but also to know ol the people, their cultural background. the physical features. art, music and literature. Learning such material was accomplished by drawing maps, listening to records and tapes. giving plays, reading great literary works and observing posters nl' that country. Latin classes ol' the Iirst year course were taught the lttndamentals ol' Latin, Roman stories and vocabulary. 'l'o realize the relation be- tween Latin and English and to show how Latin is beneficial was basic in beginning Latin. Students ol' the second year Latin learned the more dillicult Latin and linished with mythology stories. a Caesar study, and Claulic wars. Music began in our high school with a study course in seventh grade where music ol every kind lrom jan to opera was appreciated. 'l'he students were also introduced to instruments. Orchestra members were given special train- ing through sectional rehearsal and private les- sons. lnstruction was lor the purpose ol' creat- ing sounds that would bring enjoyment when instruments were combined into an orchestra. Voices ol' quality were chosen lor the cho- ruses and then trained lor perlormances namely the Christmas and spring concerts. Band members were trained to almost the point ol perfection with sectional rehearsals, private lessons and hand practice.

For International Geophysical Year Biology was required for all sophomores thus completing their laboratory science credit neces- sary for graduation. 'l'he study ol' plant and animal life included zt study of their structure. Collections made by students early in the fall introduced them to insects and leaves native to the area. Leaves were displayed in booklets and insects were preserved and then classified. llisection of earthworms and frogs proved to be interesting work. A frog's heart was observed when it was preserved in solution. Chemistry and physics could be taken in any sequence by juniors and seniors who wanted to further their science background. 'lhrough laboratory experiments, chemistry students observed chemical reactions. Many hours of student participation proved helpful as students studied the physical and chemical prop- erties of elements. The different types of reac- tions were observed and written in formulas. Physics, the science of matter, motion and energy, became more familiar as experiments were conducted, manuals were filled in and problems were solved. General physics laws were applied to the stttdy of matter and energy, sound, light, machines and electricity. NVith the new emphasis being placed on sci- ence courses today, students will find the sci- entific background helpful to them as they en' ICI' the changing world in which they live.
