The program SPAN is actually college English being taught at the high schools. The students in the program will receive college credit for the course and grades from Western. Several new courses were offered at Logan County High that many of the smaller schools never had. Computer, chemistry■. business and industrial arts classes, as well as a wider variety of home economics classes have been added.

The facilities at LCHS have also changed during the last Five years. The campus has gained a beautiful baseball field, an impressive track, and a good football practice field.

The students and custodial staff should be commended because our school still looks 'brand new. Logan County High has been a great success! The stu- dents adapted very well to bigger classes and more traffic in the hallways. The students, as well as the whole commu- nity. have accepted Logan County High School as an educational advancement for our county. Academically. L.C.H.S. offers more than any of the five county schools ever did. A successful aca- demic team has been formed that gives students the opportunity to par- ticipate in a growing tradition of aca- demic excellence. The academic team recently competed in the K.E.T. Scholastic Challenge program, and has had a great record under the coaching of Mr Mark Bennett. An Academic Boosters dub has been formed by the parents and stu- dents of the community to help rec- ognize students for academic achievements. The gifted education program was formed to help qualified students achieve even greater academic stan- dards during their high school years. From the program came the forma- tion of honors classes and advanced placement classes. LCHS has offered honors English for the past two years and advanced placement classes in history.
