-..srl As students begin freshman year they quickly taught the study of grammar, which helped them in preparation for other assign- ments. At this time they also begin their study of the classics. Sophomores and juniors, who are yet undecided about future plans, adjust themselves to regular English classes consisting of workbooks, classics, and themes. For those who are headed for college the College Preparatory classes are choice. Here stu- dents cover more ground and do more outside projects. Mrs. Virginia B.

In English Students Study One of the most important programs at J C T S this year, and for many years, has been that of the English Department As universities and business corporations have pleaded con stantly for more and better English instruction, the English Department, has responded nobly This department embraces the school's largest single body of teachers. These teachers, besides teaching a full schedule of classes, help around the school in a wide variety of activi- ties -- Iudicary Committee, Football, and Dramatics -- to name only a few. 5 Mrs. Carolyn G.

Already offering six semesters of math besides the related math courses for vocation work, for years it has offered trigonometry for juniors and seniors, making eight semesters of mathematics available to students. Aspiring mathematicians may study algebra, general math, plane geometry, and trigonometry. In today's world, with the ever-great emphasis on science, satellite and research, the ability to express oneself in mathematical terms is becoming increasingly important. The teachers in the Mathematics Depart- ment, under the leadership of Mr. J. K. Murphy, have seen to it that students at I. C. T. S. receive this lcnowl edge that theywill put to such advantageous use later on.
