-up nib ln speed reading class, Mr. Bachrach interprets a progress chart while his students follow with their own copies. Lois M., Dawn V. and Dian E. work on their senior papers in the library: the reports ranged from hypnotism to the native races of Africa. Jeanne l-l. delivers a speech to her senior English class in the auditorium. THE STUDY OF The most individual aspect of our English curriculum is its division into three tracks: Ad- vanced, Regents and Certificate. The triple track program is in the transitional period where the work for advanced, medium, and slower courses is being adjusted according to the judgment of the teacher. However, by the time-the present ninth grade is ready to graduate, it will have had four years of English under the system, and the superior group will be adequately prepared to take examinations for advanced standing in col- lege. The department also provides an important service for those students lacking necessary lang! uage skill. In the reading skills class, which meets three times a week, such materials as phrase and vocabulary cards, penmanship .exercises, speed reading books, and continued diagnostic tests are used to aid progress. Oral work forms a large part of the work in all of the English courses. Certainly, the seniors will remember the speeches which they presented to their classes in the auditorium. Page 52
