ENGLISH This year English courses emphasized de- velopment in correct use of grammar and speech. Three courses were offeredby Morenci High School for students: college preparatory, practical English and correct writing and speak- ing. College preparatory English provided ade- quate background for students who wish to get advanced education. Correct writing and speaking courses gave students a sense of self-expression,good speech and correct grammar. For students who wished to acquire sufficient knowledge for their general and personal use, the practical English course was offered. Four years of any of the three available courses are required for graduation. Three years of college preparatory English are re- quired for entrance in college.
