Sister Mary Roger and Sister Gertrude Helene give freshmen and sophomores a firm foundation in gram- mar, composition, and literature. Juniors and seniors evaluate American and English literature under the direction of Sister Marie Jeanette and Mrs. Julia Terry. The schoolls newspaper and yearbook provide an incentive for quality in journalistic pursuits. The Im- maculata News receives valuable guidance from its adviser, Sister Marie Jeanette. The untiring efforts of Sister Gertrude Helene encourage the initiative of the Guerin staff to produce an annual of merit. Focused upon the needs of each student, the IHS library, under the skilled direction of Sister Myra, teems with activity of research and scholarly pursuits. In this age of fleeting pace, it is necessary for the student to acquire a facility in relating her ideas with an air of poise and self-assurance. Through speech and drama, Miss Barbara Von Wald imparts those skills.

Through a knowledge of the past, students acquire an understanding of man- kind and themselves, and learn to analyze world events. Under the guidance of Mrs. Noreen Rigopoulos, freshmen gain an insight into aspects of ancient civil- izations. After this basic foundation, girls augment their conception of events leading to our democracy through the interpretation of Mrs. Rosemary Rigo- poulos. Miss Jane Michael imparts the development and fundamental principles of the American govern- ment. This appreciation of the forces behind history promotes better citizenship. I
