if Mr. Lee Kinney In the year 1913 the first senior class graduated from East Lansing High School. There were seven members in this graduating class. The past 50 years has seen our high school grow, with the ex- pansion of our community, to a high school gradu- ating over 200 students in 1961 and 1962. In 1965 the graduating class will be over 300 students. This year our enrollment is 1100 students in the upper four grades. With the increase in enrollment our curriculum has expanded, and students now gradu- ate with a total of twenty-four credits. The students are allowed to carry four, five, or six academic credits depending upon their capability and maturity. Each class meets 70-minutes, four times a week with supervision of study provided as part of each class activity. This study includes group study, in- dividual study in the classroom, laboratory, and library. This study is supplemented by assigned homework. Students are encouraged to enrich their program by adding academic courses as well as en- richment courses in music, art, creative writing, dramatics, shop, home-making, and commercial sub- jects. At this time there are a total of 73 different courses in our curriculum. A HALF CENTURY OF PROGRESS - PAST AND FUTURE ffiQ,fZZfOi-llfniiillls The next 50 years will find East Lansing High School continuing to grow in size as the community of East Lansing continues to grow. Trends in sec- ondary education in the next 50 years seem to point towards the high school taking a more unique roll in the education experiences of our youth. The impact of modern technology will enhance teaching techniques, as well as, affect the curriculum offerings at our high school. Course content will constantly be under revision as the needs of our society change. Trends point at this time towards the continuing development of techniques to provide for large group instruction, group discussion, and individual study. The use of technical aids and revised instruc- tional techniques will encourage the development of critical thinking, the expanded use of laboratory facilities, and the continued development of the in- vestigative approach to learning. We are sure that the quality of education at East Lansing High School will continue to meet the needs of its students in the challenging years ahead. The fine cooperation of the community will con- tinue, through its Board of Education, to provide quality education for the youth of East Lansing. ,ffakff
