Library aids English study Because it is our native tongue, more emphasis is placed upon English than any other subject. In English classes, students are taught how to interpret what they read, to express themselves clearly, and to make proper use of grammar, vocabulary, and spelling in all situations. Literature is stressed throughout the years, because through books we see all the aspects of English used effectively. In February, some of the English classes traveled to New York City to see literature in action by attending a performance of ‘The Misanthrope.” The library is the place where one can observe the full extent of the power of English. It is a world of books, kept in order by the librarian, her aides, and the library club.

The club members stamp books, take care of fines, and perform a number of other tasks involved in smooth operation of the library. MRS. MYRA BRODNEY: English
