TOWER TALES X- - - 1955 EAST HIGH SCHOGL THE FALL OF 1932 marked the completion of the new unit of East High to be used as a senior high and the remodeling of the old wing to be used as a junior high. If one were to make a survey of the new section of East High, he would be delighted not only with the beauty of the exterior of the bui.ding but also with the many evidences of most careful and thoughtful planning of the interior. The third floor is devoted to wellfequipped class- room, ofiice, and laboratory units for art, home economics, chemistry, physics, biology, and music. On the second floor are light airy class rooms, offices, and a small auditorium. Along the wide halls on the first floor are the well' equipped class rooms, offices, and laboratories devoted to English, mathematics, and geography, and the spacious library. The new cafeteria with its dining rooms and lunch rooms is located on the ground floor. Mr. Foster S. Randle remains principal of the East High with Miss Florence Hargrave as assistant principal of senior high and Mr. Earl Brown as assistant principal of junior high. Among the faculty changes necessitated by the new organization was the transfer to junior high of Misses Anna Gebhardt, Jessie Dietrich, Eulalie Beffel, and Messrs. Scott Hake and Lester Chamberlain Miss Florence Fenske became guidance director upon the resignation of Mrs. Ruth Munn. Miss julie Moore has charge of the classes in artfmetal craft and Miss Edith Isely is acting as head of the English department since Miss Katherine Regan is still on a leave of absence. The course of study for senior high has also undergone a change based upon the findings of the curriculum committee. Last fall, for the first time, stu- dents had their choice of three different courses: college preparatory, general, or vocational. New subjects have been added and many others have been reorganized in an effort to make each subject more nearly meet the needs of the individual student. In order that study time might be more effectively used, a school day of seven hour periods has been introduced, and class rooms and laboratories have been better equipped. f18l -
