Pupils in the junior high have the regular courses to follow plus certain elected courses . The regular courses are taken the full year and include: English, mathematics, social studies, and physical education. Other subjects are taught on a twelve-week basis and are rotated every twelve weeks . In this field students take either science, art, or home economics ffor girls, and shop lfor hoysj. Another field, that of music, is taught to everyone once a week. These latter courses are an exploratory field to determine the pupils' special abilities before entering high school . Ninety-nine per cent of the students prescribe to a straight course, but when certain students need a special course, their schedules are adjusted to fit their abilities The junior high subjects are the same as those for senior high but on a somewhat small er scale When a student makes the step from elementary education to senior high he has to adjust to many factors such as more teachers more freedom more responsibility changing from class to class and the necessity to act maturely The junior high department lS set up in such a manner as to make this adjustment easier and more successful ml H 1-af 3- f , l S w, 7 Q 'fi it Tl brit lg!
