Advanced English, in the junior class stressed writing and literature because the students already had an excellent grammar background. The Writing Class started at East for the first time this past year, was a class of seventeen select students, who showed writing ability their junior year. ENGLISH AND JOURNALISIVI For the third consecutive year, all English classes were divided into regular and advanced sections. The regular sections stress an overall grasp of basic grammar, while ad- vanced classes put emphasis on writ- ing and literature. For the first time, this year a Writing and World Litera- ture class was formed for seventeen students in the Senior Class. The library also prospered. Many books were added throughout the year and students found the library a greater source of information than ever before. The journalism class celebrated the birthday of the EAGLE with a birthday party at school.
