Several excellent history courses are offered. but the only one of them required is American History. which is compulsory for all students of the eleventh grade. When a person is in the senior ninth grade at one of the junior schools he is given a Central High School curriculum sheet. and from this he plans his course for his next three years of senior high school. The seven courses are grouped under the two main headings. the college preparatory. and the high school gradua- tion. Under the college preparatory group are the general, classical. and scientific- engineering courses. The general course requires seven semesters of English. and two semesters each of geometry. American History. a scinc. and physical education. The remainder of his subjects the pupil may select for himself. but this course pre- pares for college entrance only if electives are properly selected. The classical course calls for seven semesters of English. either six or eight semesters of Latin. two semesters of either chemistry or physics. one semester of English or American literature. and two semesters each of geometry. American history. and physical training. To take the scientific-engineering course. one must include the following subjects: seven semesters of English. two semesters each of geometry. biology. physical education. chemistry. physics. and American history. and one semester each of algebra three and solid geometry.

Many hours are spent by these men and women in preparing interesting material for the discussion part of each class period, and the greater majority of students do not realize how much time the average teacher spends after school hours in gathering outside information, correcting papers, and other tedious tasks. The faculty of Central High School is divided into ten departments. These groups are administration. English. history. mathematics. foreign language, science, commercial. physical education. industrial. and miscellaneous. All of these depart- ments are self-explanatory. except perhaps the industrial and the miscellaneous. The industrial department includes clothing. foods. homernaking. auto mechanics, electricity. printing. woodshop. art. and home planning. while found in the miscel- laneous department are psychology. hand. orchestra. music. theory, and the various vocal organizations. The greatest number of teachers is, of course. found in the English department, because this subject is a required one for pupils of every classification except the senior twelve.
