jlze .fgccwlemic elaarfmenf Although as a trade school we specialize in vocational training, the academic subiects have done much to make our graduates well-informed citizens and well-rounded personalities. The academic department has developed gradually. ln 1922, two hours of academic subiects were programmed for each girl in addition to her five hours of trade training daily. ln 1938, when Mrs. Cassidy became principal, the Dalton plan was dropped and Regents examinations introduced. Like other New York City vocational high schools, we now have a course of study that includes four years of English, three years of Social Studies and Health Education. ln History, we learn to understand the present in terms of the past. ln English, literature and good usage in speech and writing are stressed. We have remedial reading classes for those who need special help and honors classes for an enriched program. The present heads of the academic department are Miss Mary M. Bradley and Mrs. Ruth G. Minsky. At graduation, several awards are made to girls for distinguished academic work. The Carolyn H. Stern medal is given for the greatest progress in English, and the English Department medal is presented for the highest English average. The Social Studies cer- tificate is given tothe girl who has the highest average in Social Studies, while the Ameri- can History medal is given for the highest average in this subiect alone. The P.S.A.L. contributes a certificate through the Health Education department. There are also awards for character, athletic achievement, and good sportsmanship. We are as proud of our academic department as we are of the trade departments and grateful for the enrichment it has offered us! IO
