Although foreign language is not a requisite for graduation. many students take advantage of the complete language department which Central has. Latin, French, German. and Spanish are the languages in which instruction may he had. A pupil may elect four years of Latin. if he pleases. or two years of any one of the other three languags. If a foreign language is elected, two years of this language must hc com- pleted. Une year of a second language is allowed. Three semesters of one foreign language. or two years of each of two foreign languages constitute a major. Report cards are issued three times a semester, during the seventh, thirteenth, and eighteenth weeks. These are sometimes preceded hy warning cards, which the teachers distribute to pupils whose work is below average. These warning cards are given out in order that the student who receives one will do something about improving his grade. If nothing is done about this warning card, the student may he relatively sure that he will receive a D or an F on his report card.

IA credit is earned at the completion of one semesters work in any subjectl. In the junior schools. a semesters work in physical education. foods. and clothing constitutes a half a credit . ln senior high school. a semesters work in any subject earns a full credit. with the following exceptions: band. orchestra. junior orchestra. junior chorus. senior chorus. choir. and girls' glee club. These last mentioned groups earn a half a credit each. The general requirements for graduation from senior high school are twenty-four credits and one credit in physical training. The specific requirements are two majors. consisting of seven credits in English. and six credits in another subject. and two minors of four credits each. Unless either mathematics or history is offered as a major. they both must be offered as minors. One year of science is required. ln computing the above majors. minors. and science. the subjects taken during the ninth grade at junior school are included. If the courses are followed as they are printed on the curriculum sheet. the majors and minors will take care of themselves. The pupils at Central have the advantage of having many electives from which to choose. In a number of smaller schools. the electives are limited and the students are compelled to follow a prescribed course of study. Even in a school as large as Cen- tral, pupils, especially those intending to go to college. should choose their electives cautiously. If a definite college has been selected. it is well for the student to consult its catalogue for its specific entrance requirements. Electives must be chosen from the year and semester in which the pupil is classified or the semester next preceding or following. Not more than eight credits may be offered in any one subject toward graduation. Only one subject at a time may be taken in any one department. f

This is a very strict rule of the North Central Association of Colleges and Secondary Schools hy which Central High School is accredited. The students of tfentral High are very fortunate in having such a well-equipped school to attend. Although the huilding was erected in lf-392. the school hoard has had it remodeled several times. and at present the entire structure is in excellent con- dition. The school contains a very fine gymnasium. which is equipped with a new electric scoring clock. The gymnasium is divided in two parts hy a large folding partition, One part is for the girls and the other for the hoys. Physical education is required of all 'tenth grade students. and is taken on alternate days of the week. Both the hoys' gym and the girlsi gym have ample locker space. showers. and dress- ing rooms. Since there are seventy-eight teachers and more than two thousand students at Central. it would he impossihle for the entire huilding to go to lunch at the same time. For the past few years. a system has heen uscd wherehy all pupils and teachers who have a fourth period class or study hall which is on the 300 or -100 floor have the first lunch period from ll 130 to 12:00. and all pupils and teachers who have a fourth period class or study hall on the 200. 100. or shop floor. have the second lunch period from 12:30 to 1:00. Central is provided with a large lunch hoom for those who hring their lunches from home. and a cafeteria for those who huy their lunches. The students of Central High are surrounded on all sides hy opportunities. An excellent faculty. a very complete course of study with many electives. and a well-equipped huilding are all present for the henefit of the hoys and girls. It is up to them to take advantage of these things. and to make the most of the good high school education which is offered them. I UU
