English Class in session '?4a0ldetothe971ndafu1 The English language has developed in three def- inite stages - the Olde English of the Anglo-Saxon period, the Middle English of Geoffrey Chaucer, and finally our own Modern English era. Although many changes have been made since the days of the eloquent bard, William Shakespeare, modern English still retains much of the language of his plays. And because English is a living language, we can expect more changes in the future. The English Department of Johnstown High School endeavors to acquaint students with these three stages of our language and the works produced in each, as well as to teach young people the fine points of gram- mar, spelling, written composition, and effective speaking through oral composition. In the area of Written composition, students try their hand at essays and creative writing, such as short stories and poetry. These projects promote self-expression and develop personality. ' Mastering English is truly a challenge for juniors and seniors, but it is a challenge which can be met with the help of the competent instructors of the English Department. l21l

The structure of our country's government and her laws are taught and discussed by senior students in the POD classes. Economics is the study of man's economy-how he earns money and how to spend it wisely. The History Department presents man's past in order that he may plan a better future. l22l Ioy Carlson speaks before history class
