Here at B.S.H.S. we are lucky to have an English staff very capable of this job. The appreciation of English literature is taught to the Sophomores by Miss Penny Moore and Mr. Paul Sackett. The fundamentals in grammar and sen- tence structure are also stressed during the year. Mrs. Ann Miller and Miss Penny Moore teach the junior English class to fully appreciate good litera- ture and the American Heritage. Miss Esther Schachtele prepares her senior Eng- lish students for satisfactory college work in com- position, grammar and literature. Emphasis is put on English literature during the senior year.
