TEACHERS EXTEND A HELPING HAND AND Sarah Adams John Bell Doris Abrams A. E. Barcus Academic, commercial, general, and junior high courses were taught by qualified teachers this year. Diversity in approaches to instruction combined with competence netted a high quality of education. Teaching aids whetted the enthusiasm of stu- dents and simplified the tasks of instructors. For example, the language laboratory was utilized for students of Latin, French, and Spanish who made tapes and listened to recordings. Modern laboratory equipment also facilitated the studies of biology, chemistry, and physics pupils. Films operated by members of the audio-visual crew clarified subject material in many classes. Speakers for social security and private insurance plans stated their respective points of view to world affairs classes. Ropes and rings ranked as two of many types of apparatus used in physical education classes. Stoves and kitchen utensils provided an opportunity for practical application of skills in home economics classes. Recordings of play read- ings and folk songs enlivened many English classes. Shining above all tangible aids rose the dedication and skill of individual teachers. Instructors worked to weld the school into a well-balanced unit with high intellectual and personal achievements.
