- The Follies of 1931 Summary of Administration College Preparatory, Commercial, Vocational Agriculture, antl Vocational Home Economics are the four curnculi in Auburn High School. Music, art, and shop are also offered. Several changes in courses were made for the 19?0-31 year. Biology was added as a Sophomore science and was taught by Mr. Hornaday and Mi ' s. Hendricks- Cicero was taught to the advanced Latin group instead of Virgil. The Freshman course in Citizenship was divided in halves: Citi:;enship and Vocations. Senior English became two half year courses this year: one semester of English Literature and one semester of American Litera- ture. Junior English became a continuation of English X. For the first time m eight years Freshmen entering the College Preparatory course were permitted to take Algebra. The same Freshmen group was permitted to take Biology and omit Citizenship with the understanding that Civics and Economics will be taken the Senior year. Agriculture has been, during the past ten years, two half day sessions. This year two quarter day sessions were put in instead anel the subjects limited to purely agricultural subjects and not the re- lated sciences. Horticulture, Dairying, Poultry, and Crops were taught this year. Miss Rhoads uid Miss Wellbaum were the only new teachers this year. Miss Rhoads came from Junior High to take Miss Mor- ton ' s place. Miss Wellbaum took the place of Miss Faulke and taught Typing and some Freshman mathematics. Severity Seniors received diplomas this year — a decrease of six from last year. C22}
