English Teaches Communication Mr . Sue Koko Mr . Lois Mason Mr. William Morse Mr. Kenneth Search Mr . Diane Randle The English Department has the responsibility of perpetuating the language—teaching grammar, spell- ing. and punctuation so English speaking people can communicate the world over. In literature students interpret the past, communicate with the present, and envision the future. Literary discussion provides an opportunity to experience life without its problems. There is ever increasing knowledge to be gained about the human situation from reading, writing, speaking, and listening—knowledge of self, others, and the uni- verse. 22 Teaching English involves individual work with students.

Guidance includes all efforts that are made to help each student make maximum use of his potential so that he can live fully and effectively. It is a process through which he becomes aware of his capa- bilities and limitations so that lie can make wise immediate choices and intelligent future plans for a life that will be socially desirable as well as personally satisfying.

Without competent library help like Mrs. Arrenholz and Peggy Best, our school library could not function. Varsity Debaters Win Mid-State 9 Mrs. Mary Walker Much of our lives we spend trying to make our- selves understood. The Speech Department offers a study of the foundations of oral communication. In the various courses em- phasis is placed on individual speaking and the different kinds of speaking experiences. Mrs. Lynn Hciscl Dehate offers students the opportunity to research a topic and argue before a panel of judges. Students have to think well on their feet and argue logically. The debate squad this year took home the Mid-State 9 trophy. Mrs. Patricia Wagner Mrs. Kilcen Rogers Miss Kay I.ingren 23
