What immortal words will issue from the record player? could be the ques- tion that English students Kathy Parr and John Hayes are asking Miss Betty Roseberg. English Aims-Self-expression, Perception Students at Moline High School are offered a variety of courses in the field of English. These courses all serve to en- able the student to express himself more fluently in both the spoken and the written language. During the sophomore year, students are required to take a course of general English with grammar as well as composi- tion included. They are also introduced to the classics, and they are encouraged to read the best books. Exceptional English students are chosen by their previous teachers and enrolled in an Honors course. These students take an accelerated study of grammar, literature, and com- position. Another sophomore class, called 10A Literature, was added during the second semester for college-bound students. Juniors have the privilege of choosing, with the recommen- dation of their sophomore English teachers, one of the fol- lowing courses: English Honors, English Journalism, Ameri- can Literature, or English Communications. One period each week, every Junior takes Oral English where individual speeches, reports, and panel discussions are practiced. By the senior year, English is elective, but most students preparing for college can be found in either English Litera- ture or a one-semester course of writing and grammar called English Composition. Through their English work, whether sophomores or sen- iors, MHS students learn to use the library. Novels, maga- zines, newspapers, and reference materials can all be found in our well-equipped library. Here they become acquainted with the reference materials and find valuable information pertaining to their term papers and investigation themes. Moline High School can be ,proud of its fine English de- partment which meets the needs of all types of students. MAURINE CADDY KATHLEEN CURRY BARBARA CARST JOHN ADAM, B.A. BESS BARNETT B.A. B.S.
