LANGUAGE’S CREATE INTEREST IN LANDS English is undoubtedly the most important subject taught at Bluestone. Through the English courses stu- dents learn correct grammar usage, how to interpret and appreciate great works in literature, and composition. The first four years at Bluestone all students par- ticipate in the same English program, but in their senior year college bound students are given a course to pre- pare them for college while business students are given a course to prepare them for their life’s work. Instructing the students in this important field are: Mrs. Hilda Collins, Mrs. Agnes Jeffreys, Mrs. Calais Blevins, Miss Shirley Albertson, Miss Polly Batts, and Mrs. Rebecca Moses. Skinner Chumney reads SILAS MARNER to Miss Albertson ' s tenth-grade English class. in ninth grade English. | 12 ! i

I During the seven magical years of Bluestone ' s history there have been many new things added. In 1958 the athletic sta- dium was completed with a seating capacity of 1500 to 2000. Then in 1959 six new classrooms were added to the back wing. This year, 1961-62, saw the addition of a scoreboard to the athletic field and the addition of an academic section to the annual. This section will serve to inform the public of the work in the classrooms and give the students an insight into the courses they may take in the future years. 1 1

Maxine Kimball and Lucy Bugg check their work with the help of the newly purchased laboratory equipment. BOTH HERE AND ABROAD Latin and French are the two foreign languages taught at Bluestone High School. These courses are taught by Mrs. Bernice Owen and Mrs. Laura Bragg, respectively. Mrs. Owen keeps the so-called dead language very-much-alive for the first and second year stu- dents. Though Latin has no value as a spoken lan- guage, it does much to improve a student ' s cultural background, as well as his English vocabulary. Enthusiastic French students study grammar and improve their accents by listening to the newly purchased laboratory equipment. Both first and second year students prepare a scrapbook, thus supplementing their studies. Mrs. Bragg and the tape recorder help Walter Beales and Patsy Ed- gerton with their pronunciation. In Latin, as in all classes, one must study diligently, as Ginger Hart is doing here. 13
