'14 5, QV 437 gf f 1 English Offerings Abound One of the largest departments at Horton Watkins High School is the English department, which offers a very large variety of courses from which to choose. Because of the size of the English department, such courses as Cinema, Short Story, LEEP, Oral Communications, Exploration Television, and Advanced Composition can be offered. These courses help improve students' communication skills through class seminar discussions and individ- ual conferences with teachers. One of the more popular courses at the high school is LEEP, which involves reading and then reporting on the books read to the teacher in charge of the class. Students read at their own pace and get to choose the reading materials that interest them. Students will find that each English course will greatly contribute to a better understanding of the English language because of the variety of methods and materials used to meet the students' needs. r it wif ,a,, We ,. -ff?
