WA. The ability to speak and write good English is the most necessary and most basic of all skills. There is no career or occupation in which the ability to use English well will not be helpful to you, and it is necessary in the study of all other subiects. For these reasons four years of English are required in order to graduate from AHS. English has four basic functions-listening, speak- ing, reading, and writing-which are taught in all AHS English classes. American and English literature is studied by iuniors and seniors to learn of the development of the ideas that have molded our history. Sophomores study the relationships among the peoples of the world in stories about foreign lands. 0' Z'- I Miss Katherine Cox English IV YY if-0 VA? ,. -6- 9 U 5 xv' gif Q, 0, 'P s XVX DESCENDENT' DESQEN DANT DESENDENT VJEBSTER o o l QEJ Miss Elizabeth V.

The first, World History, is designed to acquaint each sophomore with the contributions of dilterent nations to Western civilization and the growth of this civilization and others. The second, United States History, attempts to give each iunior a detailed understanding of the American social, political, economic, and cultural progress since its beginning. Finally, the third, Problems of Democ- racy, endeavors to give each senior a broad com- prehension of his rights and obligations as an American citizen as well as the function of govern- ment in our society. Charles Gates, Ronny Headrick, and Miss Hicks locate various countries in connection with their discussion on democracy throughout the world.

Latin, the basis for all the romance languages, is offered for Iwo or three years. Through it, students gain a better concept of the English language. Latin is also an excellent preparation for the study of other languages. In French, the emphasis is on understanding spo- ken French and on being able to speak the Ian- guage fluently. There is a lab stocked with tapes of grammatical and conversational French with sepa- rate earphones for each listener. French is offered for four years. Spanish I and Il seek to teach through reading an understanding and appreciation of the culture of our Spanish-speaking neighbors south of the border. ........., French students under the supervision of Mrs. Ballard test their skills on the tape recorder.
