W is or DR. J. D. FALLS MR. w. B. JACKSON AT WCDRK ADMINISTRATION Dr. Falls, our superintendent, has won our admiration by his inspiring and instructive talks in our high school assemblies. Mr. Jackson takes a special interest in boys as he carries out his duties as a dean as well as principal. Both stand reacly to advise us with our troubles. The administrators' biggest job is to develop the curriculum of the schools. Special consideration has been given to the two classes of students. academically minded and non- academically inclined, in making out the various courses of our high school. Courses in history, science, literature and mathematics afford the academically minded students excellent opportunity for study and intellectual development. Opportunity for the non-academically, as the semi-professionally minded, is offered through science, the com- mercial courses, social sciences, and other courses in general. The purposes and contents of the courses are as follows: SOCIAL SCIENCE DEPARTMENT This department offers courses in English and American history, political and economic: in European history, ancient and modern: and in social studies, economics and commercial law. All of these subjects are concerned with men and their achievements in their social relations. All of them have a common purpose, that of fitting men and women for living usefully and happily in a community. This department consists of the following teachers: Mr. Franz, Miss Davis, Mrs. Friel, Miss Lahue, Mr. Sturgill, Mr. Elkins and Mr. Jenkins. MATHEMATICS DEPARTM ENT Students who desire to do so may take four years of mathematics one in Junior High and three in Senior High. In the general courses, however, only two years work in mathe- matics is required for graduation. Pupils who wish to pursue a study of' higher mathematics are then required to take one year of advanced algebra after which they may study trigo- nomctry or solid geometryg a course in higher arithmetic is also offered. Instructors in this department are: Miss Harriet Chatfield, Mrs. Davisson, Miss Hollins and Mr. Adams. COMM ERCIAL DEPARTMENT The commercial department offers to those students who desire to achieve success in the business world upon leaving school a chance to study business procedure and become ac- quainted with practical business problems. Students taking work in this department may study a wide range of subjects. These include stenography, typewriting, bookkeeping, clerical practice, filing, salesmanship, commercial law and commercial geography. This department has been a great help in school production. The following teachers compose the commercial department: Mrs. Ellington, Miss Hazel Chatheld, Miss Engle and Miss Royse. 22
