Carmel as arranged by the faculty, is designed not only to promote the best interests of the maiority of its students, but also to fulfill the strictest requirements of the North Central Association. The school and program having been examined and approved by the State Superintendent of Public Instruction, is recog- nized by the State, accredited to the University of Illinois, and a member of the North Central Association. This program prepares the student for a definite college depart- ment and enables him to continue in college fully equipped to undertalce the specific course he desires. On the other hand the program of studies will be of benefit to the boy who foresees no hope of any higher education. Students of Mt. Carmel are compelled to undergo a strict program of studies. If they are capable of extra worlc, electives in accordance with the course they are follow- ing will be offered for their choice. Nothing is neglected that an ordinary high school offers, and special emphasis is given to the more vital subjects on the curriculum. The Psgessxfeen ' ' 0 ' 0 0' 0 0 0 I 6- I C s 0 u q Q
